Electrical Requirements for Gas Models Only
• Do not, under any circumstances, cut or
remove the third (ground) prong from the power
cord. Failure to follow this warning can result in
fire, explosion, or death.
• For personal safety, this dryer must be properly
grounded. Failure to follow this warning can result
in fire, explosion, or death.
• The power cord of this dryer is equipped with
a 3-prong (grounding) plug which mates with
a standard 3-prong (grounding) wall outlet
to minimize the possibility of electric shock
hazard from this appliance. Failure to follow this
warning can result in fire, explosion, or death.
• This dryer must be plugged into a
60 Hz, 120 VAC. grounded outlet protected by
a 15-ampere fuse or circuit breaker. Failure to
follow this warning can result in fire, explosion,
or death.
• Where a standard 2-prong wall outlet is
encountered, it is your personal responsibility
and obligation to have it replaced with a
properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet. Failure
to follow this warning can result in fire, explosion,
or death.
CONNECTING GAS DRYERS
•Gas supply requirements:
As shipped from the factory, this dryer is
configured for use with natural gas. It can be
converted for use with LP (Liquefied Propane)
gas. Gas pressure must not exceed 13 inches
of water column.
•A qualified service or gas company technician
must connect the dryer to the gas service.
Failure to do so can result in fire, explosion,
or death.
•Isolate the dryer from the gas supply system
by closing its individual manual shutoff valve
during any pressure testing of the gas supply.
Failure to do so can result in fire, explosion,
or death.
•Supplylinerequirements:
Your laundry room must have a rigid gas
supplylinetoyourdryer.IntheUnitedStates,
anindividualmanualshutoffvalveMUSTbe
installed within at least 6 ft. (1.8 m) of the dryer,
in accordance with the National Fuel Gas Code
ANSIZ223.1orCanadiangasinstallationcode
CSAB149.1.A
1
⁄8 - inch NPT pipe plug must
be installed. Failure to do so can result in fire,
explosion, or death
•If using a rigid pipe, the rigid pipe should be
½-inchIPS.Ifacceptableunderlocalcodes
and ordinances and when acceptable to your
gas supplier,
3
⁄8 - inch approved tubing may be
used where lengths are less than 20 ft.
(6.1 m). Larger tubing should be used for
lengths in excess of 20 ft. (6.1 m). Failure to do
so can result in fire, explosion, or death.
•Connect the dryer to the type of gas shown on
the nameplate. Failure to do so can result in fire,
explosion, or death.
•To prevent contamination of the gas valve,
purge the gas supply of air and sediment
before connecting the gas supply to the dryer.
Before tightening the connection between the
gas supply and the dryer, purge remaining air
until the odor of gas is detected. Failure to do
so can result in fire, explosion, or death.
•DO NOT use an open flame to inspect for gas
leaks. Use a noncorrosive leak-detection fluid.
Failure to do so can result in fire, explosion, or
death.
•UseonlyanewAGA-orCSA-certiedgas
supply line with flexible stainless steel
connectors. Failure to do so can result in fire,
explosion, or death.
•Securelytightenallgasconnections. Failure
to do so can result in fire, explosion, or death.
•Use a pipe-joint compound that is insoluble
in Liquefied Petroleum (LP) gas on all pipe
threads. Failure to do so can result in fire,
explosion, or death.
•DO NOT attempt any disassembly of the dryer;
any disassembly requires the attention and
tools of an authorized and qualified service
person or company. Failure to do so can result
in fire, explosion, or death.
