READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE
WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS:
CALIFORNIA SAFE DRINKING WATER AND TOXIC ENFORCEMENT ACT
This act requires the governor of California to publish a list of substances known to the state to
cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm and requires businesses to warn customers
of potential exposure to such substances.
Gas appliances can cause minor exposure to four of these substances, namely benzene, carbon
monoxide, formaldehyde, and soot, caused primarily by the incomplete combustion of natural gas or
LP fuels.
Properly adjusted dryers will minimize incomplete combustion. Exposure to these substances can
be minimized further by properly venting the dryer to the outdoors.

WARNING
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
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. This appliance 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 appliance.
If it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.
This appliance must be connected to a grounded
metal, permanent wiring system or an equipment-
grounding conductor must be run with the circuit
conductors and connected to the equipment-
grounding terminal or lead on the appliance.
Electric shock can result if the dryer is not properly
grounded.
— Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of
electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service person if you are in doubt as to whether
the appliance is properly grounded.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLATION
•Properly ground dryer to conform with all
governing codes and ordinances. Follow details
in the installation instructions. Electric shock can
result if the dryer is not properly grounded.
•Before use, the dryer must be properly installed
as described in this manual.
Electric shock can result if the dryer is not properly
grounded.
•Install and store the dryer where it will not be
exposed to temperatures below freezing or
exposed to the weather.
•All repairs and servicing must be performed by
an authorized servicer unless specifically
recommended in this Owner’s Guide. Use only
authorized factory parts. Failure to follow this
warning can cause serious injury, fire, electric
shock, or death.
•To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not
install the dryer in humid spaces. Failure to
follow this warning can cause serious injury, fire,
electric shock, or death.
•Connect to a properly rated, protected, and
sized power circuit to avoid electrical overload.
Improper power circuit can melt, creating electric
shock and/or fire hazard.
•Remove all packing items and dispose of all
shipping materials properly. Failure to do so can
result in death, explosion, fire, or burns.
•Place dryer at least 18 in. above the floor for a
garage installation. Failure to do so can result in
death, explosion, fire, or burns.
•Keep all packaging from children. Packaging
material can be dangerous for children. There is
a risk of suffocation.
•Keep the area underneath and around your
appliances free of combustible materials such
as lint, paper, rags, chemicals, etc. Failure to do
so can result in fire.
•Do not place candles, smoking materials, or
other flammables on to top of the product.
Dripping wax, smoke, or fire can result.
•Remove all protective vinyl film from the
product. Failure to do so can cause product
damage, smoke or fire.

WARNING
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLATION
Exhaust/Ducting:
•Gas dryers MUST be exhausted to the outside.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in fire
or death.
•The dryer exhaust system must be exhausted
to the outside of the dwelling. If the dryer is
not exhausted outdoors, some fine lint and
large amounts of moisture will be expelled into
the laundry area. An accumulation of lint in any
area of the home can create a health and fire
hazard.
•Use only rigid metal or flexible metal 4-in.
diameter ductwork inside the dryer cabinet or
for exhausting to the outside. Use of plastic or
other combustible ductwork can cause a fire.
Punctured ductwork can cause a fire if it collapses
or becomes otherwise restricted in use or during
installation.
•Ductwork is not provided with the dryer, and
you should obtain the necessary ductwork
locally. The end cap should have hinged
dampers to prevent backdraft when the dryer
is not in use. Failure to follow these instructions
can result in fire or death.
•The exhaust duct must be 4 in. (10 cm) in
diameter with no obstructions. The exhaust
duct should be kept as short as possible. Make
sure to clean any old ducts before installing
your new dryer. Failure to follow these
instructions can result in fire or death.
•Rigid or semi rigid metal ducting is
recommended for use between the dryer and
the wall. In special installations when it is
impossible to make a connection with the
above recommendations, a UL-listed flexible
metal transition duct may be used between the
dryer and wall connection only. The use of this
ducting will affect drying time. Failure to follow
these instructions can result in fire or death.
•DO NOT use sheet metal screws or other
fasteners which extend into the duct that could
catch lint and reduce the efficiency of the
exhaust system. Secure all joints with duct
tape. For complete details, follow the
Installation Instructions. Failure to follow these
instructions can result in fire or death.

WARNING
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONNECTING ELECTRICITY
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using this
appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following:
WARNING:
•Do not, under any circumstances, cut or
remove the ground prong from the power cord.
To prevent injury to persons or damage to the
dryer, the electrical power cord must be plugged
into a properly grounded outlet.
•For personal safety, this dryer must be
properly grounded. Failure to do so can result in
electric shock or injury.
•Refer to the installation instructions in this
manual for specific electrical requirements for
your model. Failure to follow these instructions
can create an electric shock hazard and/or a fire
hazard.
•This dryer must be plugged into a properly
grounded outlet. Electric shock can result if
the dryer is not properly grounded. Have the
wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified
electrician to make sure the outlet is properly
grounded. Failure to follow these instructions can
create an electric shock hazard and/or a fire
hazard.
•The dryer should always be plugged into its
own individual electrical outlet which has a
voltage rating that matches the rating plate.
This provides the best performance and also
prevents overloading house wiring circuits which
could cause a fire hazard from overheated wires.
•Never unplug your dryer by pulling on the
power cord. Always grip plug firmly and pull
straight out from the outlet. The power cord can
be damaged, resulting in a risk of fire and electric
shock.
•Repair or replace immediately all power cords
that have become frayed or otherwise
damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks
or abrasion damage along its length or at
either end. The power cord can melt, creating
electric shock and/or fire hazard.
•When installing or moving the dryer, be careful
not to pinch, crush, or damage the power cord.
This will prevent injury and prevent damage to the
dryer from fire and electric shock.
•To reduce the risk of injury to persons, adhere
to all industry recommended safety
procedures including the use of long sleeved
gloves and safety glasses. Failure to follow all of
the safety warnings in this manual could result in
property damage, injury to persons or death.
