should not used in the dryer until all terraces of flammable liquids

and its fumes have been removed.

17. This dryer must be properly installed in accordance with the

installation instructions before it is used. See grounding instructions in

the installations sections.

18. Proper grounding must be ensured to reduce the risk of electric shock

and force. Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if

you are in doubt as to whether the dryer is properly grounded.

19. Use the dryer only for its intended purpose: drying clothes.

20. Always disconnect dryer from electrical supply before attempting any

service. Disconnect power cord by grasping the plug, not the cord.

21. Replace worn power cord and/or loose plugs.

rated at 240 Volt AC minimum, 30 Amp, with 3 open end spade lug connectors with

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

English English

upturned ends or closed loop connectors and marked for use with clothes dryers.

(When sold in Canada - 4-wire power supply cord provided

and attached on dryer)

Dryers being installed in a manufactured (mobile) home MUST employ a 4-

wire power supply cord NEMA 14-30 type SRDT or ST (as required) rated to

240 Volt AC minimum, 30 Amp, with 4 open-end spade lug connectors with

upturned ends or closed loop connectors and marked for use with clothes

dryers. See Electrical Connections for more information on a 4-wire system.

Outlet Receptacle

NEMA 10-30R receptacle should be located so the power supply cord is

accessible when the dryer is in the installed position. (Canada - NEMA

14-30R receptacle)

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

Gas Dryer: (GDG750AW and GDG950AW)

Circuit

Individual 15 Amp branch circuit fused with 15-Amp maximum time delay fuse

or circuit breakers.

Power Supply

3 wire, 120 Volt, 1 Phase, 60Hz, AC

Power Supply Cord

The dryer is equipped with a 120 Volt 3-wire power supply cord.

Note: This dryer is equipped with a three-prong grounding plug for your

protection against shock hazard and should be plugged into a properly

grounded three-prong receptacle. Do not under any circumstance cut or

remove grounding prong from plug.

Unpacking Your Dryer

1. Remove all packaging material. This includes the foam base and all adhesive

tape holding the dryer accessories inside and outside.

2. Inspect and remove any remains of packaging, tape or printed materials

before using the dryer.

The following are specific requirements for

proper and safe operation of your dryer. Failure

to follow these instructions can create excessive

drying times and fire hazards.

1. Do not use plastic flexible duct to exhaust the dryer. Excessive lint can build up

inside exhaust system and create a fire hazard and restrict air flow. Restricted

air flow will increase drying time. If your present system is made up of plastic

duct or metal foil duct, replace it with a rigid or flexible metal duct. Ensure

present duct is free of any lint prior to installing dryer duct.

2. The dryer must not be exhausted into any gas vent, chimney, wall, ceiling or

any concealed space of a building. The dryer exhaust system MUST be

exhausted to the outdoors. If the dryer is not exhausted outdoors, some

fine lint will be expelled into the laundry area. An accumulation of lint in any

area of the home can create a health and fire hazard.

3. Exceeding the length of duct pipe or number of elbows allowed in the

“Maximum Length” chart can cause an accumulation of lint in the exhaust

system. Plugging the system could create a fire hazard, as well as increase

drying times.

4. Do not screen the exhaust ends of the vent system. Lint can become caught in

the screen, increasing drying time. Use an approved vent hood to terminate the

duct outdoors, and seal all joints with duct tape.

5. All male duct pipe fittings must be installed downstream with the flow of air.

6. Exhaust duct must not be connected or secured with screws or other fastening

devices which extend into the interior of the duct.

7. Do not allow combustible material (clothing, draperies/curtains, paper, etc.) to

come in contact with exhaust system.

Explosion hazard:

Do not install the dryer where gasoline or other flammables are kept or

stored. If the dryer is installed in a garage, it must be a minimum of 18

inches (45.7cm) above the floor. Failure to do so can result in death,

explosion, fire or burns.

Exhaust Requirements:

Use only 4 inch (10.2cm) diameter (minimum) rigid of flexible metal duct and

approved vent hood which has a swing-out damper hat open when the dryer is

in operation. When the dryer stops, the dampers automatically close to prevent

drafts and the entrance of insects and rodents. To avoid restricting the outlet,

WARNING

EXHAUST SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

English English

maintain a minimum of 12 inches (30.5cm) clearance between the vent hood

and the ground or any other obstruction. The vent flap should be able to move

freely, although vertical orientation of the exhaust system is acceptable. Certain

extenuating circumstances could affect the performance of the dryer:

1. Only rigid metal duct work should be used.

2. Venting vertically through a roof may expose the exhaust system to down

drafts causing an increase in vent restriction.

3. Running the exhaust system through an uninsulatedarea may cause

condensation and faster accumulation of lint.

4. Compression of crimping of the exhaust system will cause an increase in

vent restriction.

The exhaust system should be inspected and cleaned a minimum of every 12

months with normal usage. The more the dryer is used the more often you

should check the exhaust system and vent hood for proper operation.

4. The gas supply line MUST have an individual manual shutoff valve installed

within 6 feet (183cm) of the dryer in accordance with the National Fuel Gas

Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54.

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

accordance with the B149.1, Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code.

5. A 1/8 inch (0.32cm) N.P.T. plugged tapping, accessible for test gauge

connection, MUST be installed immediately upstream of the gas supply

connection to the dryer.

6. The dryer MUST be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during

any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures in excess

of 1/2 psig (3.45kPa).

7. The dryer MUST be isolated from the gas supply piping system during any

pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or

less than 1/2 psig (3.45 kPa).
