INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Tools and Parts
Gather the required tools and parts before starting installation. Read and follow the
instructions provided with any tools listed here.
Parts supplied:
Remove parts package from dryer drum. Check that all parts were included.
Parts needed:
Check local codes. Check existing electrical supply and venting and see “Electrical
Requirements” and “Venting Requirements” before purchasing parts.
Mobile home installations require metal exhaust system hardware available for purchase from
the dealer from whom you purchased your dryer. For information on ordering, please refer to
the “Assistance or Service” section. You may also contact the dealer from whom you
purchased your dryer.
If using a power supply cord:
Use a UL listed power supply cord kit marked for use with clothes dryers. The kit should
contain:
■ A UL listed 30-amp power supply cord, rated 120/240 volt minimum. The cord should be
type SRD or SRDT and be at least 4 ft (1.22 m) long. The wires that connect to the dryer
must end in ring terminals or spade terminals with upturned ends.
■ A UL listed strain relief.
Location Requirements
You will need
■ A location that allows for proper exhaust installation. See “Venting Requirements.”
■ A separate 30-amp circuit.
■ If you are using a power supply cord, a grounded electrical outlet located within 2 ft
(61 cm) of either side of the dryer. See “Electrical Requirements.”
■ A sturdy floor to support the total weight (dryer and load) of 200 lbs (90.7 kg). The
combined weight of a companion appliance should also be considered.
■ Cold water faucets located within 4 ft (1.2 m) of the water fill valves, and water pressure
of 20-100 psi (138-690 kPa). You may use the water supply for your washer using the “Y”
connector and short hose (if needed) which are provided.
■ 20-100 psi (138-690 kPa) for best performance.
■ A level floor with a maximum slope of 1" (2.5 cm) under entire dryer.
Do not operate your dryer at temperatures below 45ºF (7ºC). At lower temperatures, the dryer
might not shut off at the end of an automatic cycle. Drying times can be extended.
The dryer must not be installed or stored in an area where it will be exposed to water and/or
weather.
Check code requirements. Some codes limit, or do not permit, installation of the dryer in
garages, closets, mobile homes or sleeping quarters. Contact your local building inspector.
