STACKED WASHER/DRYER SAFETY

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

To reduce the risk of re, electric shock, or injury to persons when using the washer/dryer, follow basic

precautions, including the following:

WARNING:

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

■

Read all instructions before using the washer/dryer.

■

Do not place items exposed to cooking oils in your dryer.

Items contaminated with cooking oils may contribute to a

chemical reaction that could cause a load to catch re.

■

Do not wash or dry articles that have been previously

cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with gasoline,

dry-cleaning solvents, other ammable, or explosive

substances as they give off vapors that could ignite or

explode.

■

Do not add gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other

ammable, or explosive substances to the wash water.

These substances give off vapors that could ignite or

explode.

■

Do not allow children to play on or in the washer/dryer.

Close supervision of children is necessary when the

washer/dryer is used near children.

■

Before the washer/dryer is removed from service or

discarded, remove the doors to the washer/dryer

compartments.

■

Do not reach into the washer/dryer if the tub, agitator or

drum is moving.

■

Do not install or store the washer/dryer where it will be

exposed to water and/or the weather.

■

Do not tamper with controls.

■

Clean dryer lint screen before or after each load.

■

Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced

in a hot water system that has not been used for 2 weeks

or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water

system has not been used for such a period, before using

the washing machine, turn on all hot water faucets and let

the water ow from each for several minutes. This will

release any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is

ammable, do not smoke or use an open ame during

this time.

■

Do not repair or replace any part of the washer/dryer or

attempt any servicing unless specically recommended

in this Use and Care Guide or in published user-repair

instructions that you understand and have the skills to

carry out.

■

Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static

unless recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric

softener or product.

■

Do not use heat to dry articles containing foam rubber or

similarly textured rubber-like materials.

■

Keep area around the exhaust opening and adjacent

surrounding areas free from the accumulation of lint, dust,

and dirt.

■

The outside end of main vent should have a sweep elbow directed

downward.

If main vent travels vertically through the roof, rather than through

wall, install a 180° sweep elbow on end of vent at least

2 ft. (610 mm) above surface of roof.

The opening in wall or roof shall have a diameter 1⁄2" (13 mm)

larger than vent diameter. Vent should be centered in opening.

Do not install screening over end of vent for best performance.

A main vent can be used for venting a group of dryers. The main

vent should be sized to remove 200 CFM of air per dryer. Large-

capacity lint screens of proper design may be used in main vent

if checked and cleaned frequently. The room where the dryers are

located should have make-up air equal to or greater than CFM of

all the dryers in the room.

Back-draft Damper Kit, Part No. 3391910, is available from

your distributor and should be installed in the vent of each dryer to

keep exhausted air from returning into dryers and to keep exhaust

in balance within main vent. Unobstructed return air openings are

required.

Multiple Dryer Venting

DRYER VENTING REQUIREMENTS

Each vent should enter the main vent at an angle pointing in the

direction of the airﬂow. Vents entering from the opposite side

should be staggered to reduce the exhausted air from interfering

with the other vents.

The maximum angle of each vent entering the main vent should be

no more than 30°.

This dryer is equipped for use with natural gas. It is design-certiﬁed by CSA International for propane and butane gases with appropriate

conversion. No attempt shall be made to convert dryer from gas speciﬁed on serial/rating plate for use with a different gas without consulting

the serving gas supplier.

Conversion must be done by a qualiﬁed service technician.

Gas conversion kit part numbers are listed on gas valve burner base.

Type of Gas

DRYER GAS SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS

Recommended Method

Provide a gas supply line of 1⁄2" (13 mm) rigid (IPS) pipe to dryer

location. Pipe joint compounds that resist action of propane gas

must be used. Do not use TEFLON

®†

tape. With propage gas, piping

or tubing size can be 1⁄2" (13 mm) minimum. Usually, propane gas

suppliers determine size and materials used in the system.

Gas Supply Pressure Testing

A 1/8" (3 mm) NPT minimum plugged tapping, accessible for

gauge testing, must be installed immediately downstream of the

installed shut-off valve to the dryer (as shown above). The dryer

must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during

any pressure testing of the system at test pressures in excess of

1/2" psig (352 kg/m

2

).

Alternate Method

The gas supply may also be connected using 3⁄8" (10 mm)

approved copper or aluminum tubing. If the total length of

the supply line is more than 20 ft. (6.1 m), larger tubing will

be required.

If using natural gas, do not use copper tubing. Pipe joint

compounds that resist action of type of gas supplied must

be used.

Shut-off valve required

The supply line must be equipped with a manual shut-off valve

installed within 6 ft. (1.8 m) of dryer in accordance with National

Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1. This valve should be located in

same room as dryer. It should be in a location that allows ease

of opening and closing. Do not block access to shut-off valve. In

Canada, an individual manual shut-off valve must be installed in

accordance with the B149 installation codes CAN/CGA B149.1

and CAN/CGA B149.2.

Gas Supply Line

Flexible Metal Appliance Connector

It is recommended that a new ﬂexible stainless steel gas line,

design-certiﬁed by CSA International, be used for connecting the

dryer to the gas supply line. (The gas pipe which extends through

the lower rear of the dryer is provided with 3⁄8" (10 mm) male

pipe thread.)

NOTE: Do not kink or damage the ﬂexible stainless steel gas line

when moving the door.

Rigid Pipe Connection

The rigid pipe connection requires a combination of pipe ﬁttings

to obtain an in-line connection to dryer.

4. Models with separate washer power cords: Push the power

cord plug into the opening on the right side of the rear panel and

pull the power cord through the opening on the left side of the

rear panel and close holes with the attached cap. Do not pull

plug end of power cord through the right side hole.

NOTE: To avoid damage to internal washer parts or the power

cord, if the cord does not pull out of the washer rear panel

easily, do not force it. Remove the washer rear panel and guide

the power cord around the obstruction and out the hole on the

left side of the rear panel.

5. Close the bolt holes with the four transport bolt hole plugs.

IMPORTANT: If the washer/dryer is to be transported, call your

product distributor or installer. To avoid suspension and structural

damage, your washer/dryer must be properly set up for relocation

by a trained professional.

INSTALLING STACKED WASHER/DRYER

NOTE: Slide washer/dryer onto cardboard or hardboard before

moving to avoid damaging ﬂoor covering.

IMPORTANT: Position the washer/dryer so that the rear of the

washer is within approximately 3 ft. (900 mm) of its ﬁnal location.

There are four shipping bolts in the rear panel of the washer that

support the suspension system during transportation. These bolts

also retain the power cord inside the washer until the bolts are

removed.

1. Keep the washer/dryer in the upright position while removing the

shipping bolts.

2. Using a 1/2" (13 mm) wrench, loosen each of the bolts.

3.

Once the bolt is loose, move it to the center of the hole and

completely pull out the bolt, including the plastic spacer covering

the bolt. Once all four bolts are removed, discard the bolts and

spacers.

Damage to the valves can result.

Clear Water Lines

■ Run water through both faucets and inlet hoses, into a laundry

tub, drainpipe, or bucket, to get rid of particles

in the water lines that might clog the inlet valve screens.

■ Check the temperature of the water to make sure that the hot

water hose is connected to the hot water faucet and that the

cold water hose is connected to the cold water faucet.
