INSTALLATION

Installation Location Requirements

WARNING

Read all installation instructions completely before installing and operating your dryer! It is important that you

review this entire manual before installing and using your dryer. Detailed instructions concerning electrical

connections, gas connections, and exhaust requirements are provided on the following pages.

The installation requires:

•

A location that allows for proper exhaust installation. A gas dryer must be exhausted to the outdoors. See

Venting the Dryer.

•

A grounded electrical outlet located within 2 ft. (61 cm) of either side of the dryer. See Connecting Electric

Dryers .
