Safety Information
Explanation of Safety Messages
Throughout this manual and on machine decals, you
will find precautionary statements (“DANGER,”
“WARNING,” and “CAUTION”) followed by specific
instructions. These precautions are intended for the
personal safety of the operator, user, servicer, and
those maintaining the machine.
Additional precautionary statements (“IMPORTANT”
and “NOTE”) are followed by specific instructions.
IMPORTANT: The word “IMPORTANT” is used
to inform the reader of specific procedures where
minor machine damage will occur if the procedure
is not followed.
NOTE: The word “NOTE” is used to communicate
installation, operation, maintenance or servicing
information that is important but not hazard
related.
Important Safety Instructions
Save These Instructions
1. Read all instructions before using the dryer.
2. Refer to the GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS in
the INSTALLATION manual for the proper
grounding of the dryer.
3. 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.
4. Do not allow children to play on or in the dryer.
Close supervision of children is necessary when
the dryer is used near children. This is a safety
rule for all appliances.
5. Before the dryer is removed from service or
discarded, remove the door to the drying
compartment.
6. Do not reach into the dryer if the cylinder is
revolving.
7. Do not install or store the dryer where it will be
exposed to water and/or weather.
8. Do not tamper with the controls.
9. Do not repair or replace any part of the dryer, or
attempt any servicing unless specifically
recommended in the user-maintenance
instructions or in published user-repair
instructions that you understand and have the
skills to carry out.
10. Do not use fabric softeners or products to
eliminate static unless recommended by the
manufacturer of the fabric softener or product.
11. To reduce the risk of fire, DO NOT DRY plastics
or articles containing foam rubber or similarly
textured rubberlike materials.
12. ALWAYS clean the lint filter after every load. A
layer of lint in the filter reduces drying efficiency
and prolongs drying time.
Indicates an imminently hazardous
situation that, if not avoided, will cause
severe personal injury or death.
DANGER
Indicates a hazardous situation that, if not
avoided, could cause severe personal
injury or death.
WARNING
Indicates a hazardous situation that, if not
avoided, may cause minor or moderate
personal injury or property damage.
CAUTION

which have traces of any flammable substances
such as machine oil, flammable chemicals,
thinner, etc., or anything containing wax or
chemicals such as in mops and cleaning cloths, or
anything dry-cleaned at home with a dry-
cleaning solvent in the dryer.
19. Use the dryer only for its intended purpose,
drying clothes.
20. Always disconnect the electrical power to the
dryer before attempting service. Disconnect the
power cord by grasping the plug, not the cord.
21. If supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by
a special cord or assembly available from the
manufacturer or its service agent.
22. Install this dryer according to the
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS. All
connections for electrical power, grounding and

made by licensed personnel when required. Do
not do it yourself unless you know how!
23. Remove laundry immediately after the dryer
stops.
24. Always read and follow manufacturer’s
instructions on packages of laundry and cleaning
aids. Heed all warnings or precautions. To reduce
the risk of poisoning or chemical burns, keep
them out of reach of children at all times
(preferably in a locked cabinet).
25. Do not tumble fiberglass curtains and draperies
unless the label says it can be done. If they are
dried, wipe out the cylinder with a damp cloth to
remove particles of fiberglass.
26. ALWAYS follow the fabric care instructions
supplied by the garment manufacturer.
27. Never operate the dryer with any guards and/or
panels removed.
28. DO NOT operate the dryer with missing or
broken parts.
29. DO NOT bypass any safety devices.
30. Failure to install, maintain, and/or operate this
machine according to the manufacturer’s
instructions may result in conditions which can
produce bodily injury and/or property damage.
IMPORTANT: Solvent vapors from dry-cleaning
machines create acids when drawn through the
heater of the drying unit. These acids are corrosive
to the dryer as well as to the laundry load being
dried. Be sure make-up air is free of solvent vapors.
IMPORTANT: Have your dryer installed properly.
Don’t do it yourself unless you know how!
NOTE: The WARNING and IMPORTANT
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS appearing in this
manual are not meant to cover all possible
conditions and situations that may occur. Common
sense, caution and care must be exercised when
installing, maintaining, or operating the dryer.
Always contact your dealer, distributor, service agent
or the manufacturer about any problems or conditions
you do not understand.

Installing the Dryer
Step 1: Position and Level the Dryer
Install dryer before washer. This allows room for
attaching exhaust duct.
Install the four rubber feet (in accessories bag).
Select a location with a solid floor. Dryers installed in
residential garages must be elevated 18 inches (46 cm)
above the floor.
No other fuel burning appliance should be installed in
the same closet with the dryer.
The dryer must not be installed or stored in an area
where it will be exposed to water and/or weather.
The dryer needs sufficient clearance and an adequate
air supply for proper operation and ventilation, and for
easier installation and servicing. (Minimum clearances
are shown in Figure 4).
Place the dryer in position, and adjust the legs until the
dryer is level from side to side and front to back.
Leveling legs can be adjusted from inside the dryer
with a 1/4 in. driver. All four legs must rest firmly on
the floor so the weight of the dryer is evenly
distributed. The dryer must not rock.
Figure 3
IMPORTANT: In mobile home installations, gas
dryers MUST be permanently attached to the floor
at the time of installation. Order No. 526P3 Hold
Down Kit (available at extra cost) for a
manufactured (mobile) home installation. Follow
the instructions supplied with the kit.
Installation of unit must conform to the Manufactured
Home Construction and Safety Standards, Title 24
CF4, Part 32-80 or Standard CAN/CSA-Z240 MH.

Step 2: Connect Dryer Exhaust System IMPORTANT: Installing in-line filters or lint
collectors will cause increased static pressure.
Failure to maintain the secondary lint system will
decrease dryer efficiency and may void machine
warranty.
DO NOT use plastic or thin foil ducting. Rigid
metal duct is recommended.
Locate dryer so exhaust duct is as short as
possible.
Be certain old ducts are cleaned before installing
your new dryer.
Use 4 inch (102 mm) diameter rigid or flexible
metal duct.
The male end of each section of duct must point
away from the dryer.
Use as few elbows as possible.
Use duct tape or pop-rivets on all duct joints. DO
NOT use sheet metal screws or fasteners on
exhaust pipe joints which extend into the duct
and catch lint.
Ductwork that runs through unheated areas must
be insulated to help reduce condensation and lint
build-up on pipe walls.
Install backdraft dampers in multi-dryer
installations.
In mobile home installations, dryer exhaust duct
must be secured to mobile home structure.
Dryer exhaust duct MUST NOT terminate under
mobile home.
Dryer exhausts 220 cfm (measured at back of
dryer).
DO NOT install flexible duct in concealed
spaces, such as a wall or ceiling.
To reduce the risk of fire and combustion
gas accumulation the dryer MUST be
exhausted to the outdoors.
W604
To reduce the risk of fire and the
accumulation of combustion gases, DO
NOT exhaust dryer air into a window well,
gas vent, chimney or enclosed, unventilated
area, such as an attic, wall, ceiling, crawl
space under a building or concealed space
of a building.
W045
WARNING
This gas appliance contains or produces a
chemical or chemicals which can cause
death or serious illness and which are
known to the State of California to cause
cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive
harm. To reduce the risk from substances in
the fuel or from fuel combustion, make sure
this appliance is installed, operated, and
maintained according to the instructions in
this manual.
W115
To reduce the risk of fire, DO NOT use
plastic or thin foil ducting to exhaust the
dryer.
W354
To reduce the risk of fire, the exhaust duct
and weather hood MUST be fabricated of a
material that will not support combustion.
Rigid or flexible metal pipe is recommended
for a clothes dryer.
W048
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire due to increased
static pressure, we do not recommend
installation of in-line secondary lint filters
or lint collectors. If secondary systems
are mandated, frequently clean the
system to assure safe operation.

Static pressure in exhaust duct should not be
greater than .6 inches water column (1.5 cm),
measured with manometer placed on exhaust
duct two feet (61 cm) from dryer (check with
dryer running and no load). In multi-dryer
installations, all dryers connected to the main
collector duct should be operating when pressure
is checked.
Exhausting dryer in hard-to-reach locations can
be done by installing 521P3 Flexible Metal Vent
Kit (available as optional equipment at extra
cost).
Sufficient make-up air must be supplied to
replace the air exhausted by the dryer. The free
area of any opening for outside air must be at
least 40 in2(260 cm2).
Energy efficient buildings with low air
infiltration rates should be equipped with an air
exchanger that can accommodate on demand
make-up air needs in the laundry room. These
devices can be obtained through your building
contractor or building material suppliers.
Do not draw make-up air from a room containing
a gas fired water heater, a dry cleaner or a hair
salon.
Failure to exhaust dryer properly will void
warranty.
NOTE: Venting materials are not supplied with the
dryer (obtain locally).
IMPORTANT: DO NOT block the airflow at the
bottom of the dryer’s front panel with laundry,
rugs, etc. Blockage will decrease airflow through
the dryer, thus reducing the efficiency of the dryer.
Exhaust Direction
The dryer can be exhausted to the outdoors through the
back, left, right or bottom of the dryer. EXCEPTION:
Gas dryers cannot be vented out the left side
because of the burner housing.
Dryer is shipped from factory ready for rear exhaust.
Exhausting the dryer through sides or bottom can be
accomplished by installing a Directional Exhaust Kit,
528P3, available as optional equipment at extra cost.

Exhaust System
For best drying results, recommended maximum
length of exhaust system is shown in Table 1.
To prevent backdraft when dryer is not in operation,
outer end of exhaust pipe must have a weather hood
with hinged dampers (obtain locally).
NOTE: Weather hood should be installed at least
12 inches (30.5 cm) above the ground. Larger
clearances may be necessary for installations where
heavy snowfall can occur.

A Backdraft Damper, Part No. 58786 (obtain locally),
should be installed in a 4 inch (10.2 cm) diameter
VERTICAL duct system. This will prevent a backdraft
when dryer is not in use, and will keep the exhaust air
in balance within the central exhaust system.
Step 3: (Gas Dryer Only) Connect Gas
Supply Pipe
1. Make certain your dryer is equipped for use with
the type of gas in your laundry room. Dryer is
equipped at the factory for Natural Gas with a
3/8 inch NPT gas connection.
NOTE: The gas service to a gas dryer must
conform with the local codes and ordinances, or in
the absence of local codes and ordinances, with the
latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI
Z223.1/NFPA 54 or the CAN/CSA-B149.1, Natural
Gas and Propane Installation Code.
Natural Gas, 1000 Btu/ft3(37.3 MJ/m3) service must
be supplied at minimum 5.0 inch water column
pressure to maximum 10.5 inch water column
pressure.
For proper operation at altitudes above 2000 feet
(610 m) the natural gas valve spud orifice size must be
reduced to ensure complete combustion. Refer to
Table 2.
2. Remove the shipping cap from the gas
connection at the rear of the dryer. Make sure you
do not damage the pipe threads when removing
the cap.
3. Connect to gas supply pipe.

To reduce the risk of gas leaks, fire or
explosion:
• The dryer must be connected to the type
of gas as shown on nameplate located in
the door recess.
• Use a new flexible stainless steel
connector.
• Use pipe joint compound insoluble in L.P.
(Liquefied Petroleum) Gas, or Teflon tape,
on all pipe threads.
• Purge air and sediment from gas supply
line before connecting it to the dryer.
Before tightening the connection, purge
remaining air from gas line to dryer until
odor of gas is detected. This step is
required to prevent gas valve
contamination.
• Do not use an open flame to check for gas
leaks. Use a non-corrosive leak detection
fluid.
• Any disassembly requiring the use of
tools must be performed by a suitably
qualified service person.

NOTE: When connecting to a gas line, an
equipment shut-off valve must be installed within
6 feet (1.8 m) of the dryer. An 1/8 in. NPT pipe plug
must be installed as shown for checking inlet
pressure. Refer to Figure 9.
4. Tighten all connections securely. Turn on gas and
check all pipe connections (internal & external)
for gas leaks with a non-corrosive leak detection
fluid.
NOTE: The dryer and its appliance main gas valve
must be disconnected from the gas supply piping
system during any pressure testing of that system
at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psi (3.45 kPa).
Refer to Step 9 (Check Heat Source).
L.P. (Liquefied Petroleum) Gas, 2500 Btu/ft3
(93.1 MJ/m3) service must be supplied at 10 ± 1.5 inch
water column pressure.
For proper operation at altitudes above 3500 feet
(1070 m) the L.P. gas valve spud orifice size must be
reduced to ensure complete combustion. Refer to
Table 3.
NOTE: DO NOT connect the dryer to L.P. Gas
Service without converting the gas valve. Install
L.P. Gas Conversion Kit 458P3, available at extra
cost.
Step 4: (Electric Dryer Only) Connect

Grounding Information
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of
malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the
risk of electric shock by providing a path of least
resistance for electric current.The cord-kit must be
equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding
conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be
plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local
codes and ordinances.
Do not modify the plug provided with the cord-kit - if
it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed
by a qualified electrician.
The dryer has its own terminal block that must be
connected to a separate branch, 60 Hertz, single phase
circuit, AC (alternating current) circuit, fused at 30
Amperes (the circuit must be fused on both sides of
the line). Electrical service for the dryer should be
of maximum rated voltage (208 or 240 Volt,
depending on heating element) listed on the
nameplate. Do not connect dryer to 110, 115, or 120
Volt circuit .
Heating elements are available for field installation in
dryers which are to be connected to electrical service
of different voltage than that listed on nameplate, such
as 208 Volt.
NOTE: Branch circuit wire size requirements to
laundry room outlet are shown in Table 4.
Table 4
The power cord connection between wall receptacle
and dryer terminal block IS NOT supplied with
