DRYER SAFETY

■It is recommended that the owner post, in a prominent location, instructions for the customer’s use in the event the customer smells

gas. This information should be obtained from your gas supplier.

■Post the following warning in a prominent location.

DRYER SAFETY

IMPORTANT: When discarding or storing your old clothes dryer, remove the door.

DRYER SAFETY

■Clean dryer lint screen before or after each load.

■Do not use this dryer without the lint screen in place.

■Do not repair or replace any part of the dryer or attempt any

servicing unless speciﬁcally recommended in this Installation

Instructions 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.

■The ﬁnal part of a tumble dryer cycle occurs without heat

(cool-down cycle) to ensure that the articles are left at a

temperature that ensures that the items will not be damaged.

■WARNING: Never stop a tumble dryer before the end of

the drying cycle unless all items are quickly removed and

spread out so that the heat is dissipated. (Avoids risk of

spontaneous combustion).

■Keep area around the exhaust opening and adjacent

surrounding areas free from the accumulation of lint, dust,

and dirt.

■The interior of the dryer and dryer exhaust vent should be

cleaned periodically by qualiﬁed service personnel.

■See “Electrical Requirements” section for grounding

instructions.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of ﬁre, electric shock, or injury to persons when using the dryer, follow basic precautions,

including the following:

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

■Read all instructions before using the dryer.

■This dryer is intended only for drying clothes and textiles

that have been washed in water. Do not use for any other

purpose.

■WARNING: If you smell gas, do not use the dryer or any

electrical equipment nearby. Warn other people to clear the

area. Contact the dryer owner immediately.

■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 ﬁre.

■Do not dry articles that have been previously cleaned in,

washed in, soaked in, or spotted with gasoline, dry-cleaning

solvents, other ﬂammable, or explosive substances as they

give off vapors that could ignite or explode.

■Do not dry unwashed items in the dryer.

■Do not allow children to play on or in the dryer. Close

supervision of children is necessary when the dryer is used

near children.

■Before the dryer is removed from service or discarded,

remove the door to the dryer compartment.

■Do not reach into the dryer if the drum is moving.

■Do not open door while dryer is in operation. It will stop.

■Do not install or store the dryer where it will be exposed to

the weather.

■Do not tamper with controls.

Your dryer can be installed in a basement, laundry room, or

recessed area.

Companion appliance location requirements should also be

considered.

IMPORTANT: Do not install or store the dryer where it will be

exposed to the weather. Proper installation is your responsibility.

You will need:

■A grounded electrical outlet located within 6 ft. (1.8 m) of

where the power cord is attached to the back of the dryer.

See “Electrical Requirements.”

■A level ﬂoor with a maximum slope of 1" (25 mm) under entire

dryer. Installing the dryer on soft ﬂoor surfaces, such as carpets

or surfaces with foam backing, is not recommended.

Gas dryer installation clearances

■The location must be large enough to allow the dryer door

to be fully opened.

■Additional spacing should be considered for ease of installation

and servicing. The door opens more than 180°.

■Additional clearances might be required for wall, door, and ﬂoor

moldings.

■Additional spacing of 1" (25 mm) on all sides of the dryer

is recommended to reduce noise transfer.

When installing a gas dryer:

IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes and ordinances.

■Check code requirements: Some codes limit or do not

permit installation of clothes dryers in garages, closets,

or sleeping quarters. Contact your local building inspector.

■Make sure that lower edges of the cabinet, plus the back and

bottom sides of the dryer, are free of obstructions to permit

adequate clearance of air openings for combustion air. See

“Recessed Area and Closet Installation Instructions” below for

minimum spacing requirements.

Location Requirements

GAS DRYER INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

Recessed Area and Closet Installation Instructions

This dryer may be installed in a recessed area or closet. For

recessed area and closet installations, minimum clearances

can be found on the warning label on the rear of the dryer

or in “Dimensions/Clearances.”

The installation spacing is in inches and is the minimum allowable.

Additional spacing should be considered for ease of installation,

servicing, and compliance with local codes and ordinances.

If closet door is installed, the minimum unobstructed air opening in

the top and bottom is required. Louvered doors with equivalent air

openings are acceptable.

The dryer must be exhausted outdoors.

No other fuel-burning appliance may be installed in the same closet

as the dryer.

Gas Dryer Grounding

IMPORTANT: The dryer must be electrically grounded in

accordance with local codes and ordinances or, in the absence

of local codes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70,

latest edition, or Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1. If codes

permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is recommended that

a qualiﬁed electrical installer determine that the ground path is

adequate.

A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:

National Fire Protection Association

One Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269

CSA International

8501 East Pleasant Valley Road

■Do not ground to a gas pipe.

■Do not have a fuse in the neutral or ground circuit.

■A 120 volt, 60 Hz, AC only, 15- or 20-amp, fused electrical

circuit is required. A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is also

recommended. It is recommended that a separate circuit

serving only this dryer be provided.

■This dryer is equipped with a power supply cord having a

3-prong grounding plug.

■To minimize the possibility of shock, the cord must be plugged

into a mating, 3 prong, grounding-type outlet, grounded in

accordance with local codes and ordinances. If a mating outlet

is not available, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of

the customer to have the properly grounded outlet installed by

a qualiﬁed electrician.

■If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is

recommended that a qualiﬁed electrician determine that the

ground path is adequate.

■Check with a qualiﬁed electrician if you are not sure the dryer is

properly grounded.
