GAS DRYER ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS 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.
GAS REQUIREMENTS Gas Supply WARNING Explosion Hazard Use a new CSA International approved gas supply line. Install a shut-off valve. Securely tighten all gas connections. If connected to propane, have a qualified person make sure gas pressure does not exceed 13" (33 cm) water column. Examples of a qualified person include: licensed heating personnel, authorized gas company personnel, and authorized service personnel. Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
ELECTRIC DRYER ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS (U.S.A. ONLY) It is your responsibility: ■■ To contact a qualified electrical installer. ■■ To be sure that the electrical connection is adequate and in conformance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70-latest edition and all local codes and ordinances. ■■ The National Electrical Code requires a 4-wire power supply connection for homes built after 1996, dryer circuits involved in remodeling after 1996, and all mobile home installations.
ELECTRIC DRYER ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS (U.S.A. ONLY) Electric Dryer Power Supply Cord WARNING Fire Hazard Use a new UL listed 30 amp power supply cord. Use a UL listed strain relief. Disconnect power before making electrical connections. Connect neutral wire (white or center wire) to center terminal. Ground wire (green or bare wire) must be connected to green ground connector. Connect remaining 2 supply wires to remaining 2 terminals. Securely tighten all electrical connections.
DRYER VENTING REQUIREMENTS WARNING Elbows: ■■ 45° elbows provide better airflow than 90° elbows. Good Better Fire Hazard Use a heavy metal vent. Do not use a plastic vent. Do not use a metal foil vent. Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or fire. WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, this dryer MUST BE EXHAUSTED OUTDOORS. IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
DRYER VENTING REQUIREMENTS Vent Hoods 4" (102 mm) Diameter Exhaust Hoods Box hood Louvered hood Exhaust hood must be at least 12" (305 mm) from the ground or any object that may be in the path of the exaust (such as flowers, rocks, bushes, or snow). Angled hood 12" min. (305 mm) Vent System Length Maximum Vent Length/Vent Connection Maximum length of vent system depends upon the type of vent used, number of elbows, and type of exhaust hood. 3. Tighten hose clamp with Phillips screwdriver.
DRYER VENTING REQUIREMENTS If an Exhaust Hood Cannot be Used Multiple Dryer Venting The outside end of main vent should have a sweep elbow directed downward. A main vent can be used for venting a group of dryers. The main vent should be sized to remove 5663 l/min. (200 CFM) of air per dryer. Large-capacity lint screens of proper design may be used in main vent if checked and cleaned frequently.
INSTALLING LEVELING LEGS 1. Prepare dryer for leveling legs NOTE: Slide dryer onto cardboard or hardboard before moving to avoid damaging floor covering. Using two or more people, move dryer to desired installation location. Take tape off front corners of dryer. Open dryer and remove the literature and parts packages. Wipe drum interior with damp cloth to remove any dust. Take two cardboard corners from the dryer carton and place them on the floor in back of the dryer.
LEVELING Leveling your dryer properly reduces excess noise and vibration. 2. Grip dryer from top and rock back and forth, making sure all four feet are firmly on floor. Repeat, rocking dryer from side to side. If dryer rocks, adjust leveling feet. 1. Remove cardboard from beneath dryer. Place a level on top edges of dryer, checking each side and front. If not level, tip dryer and adjust feet up or down, repeating as necessary. Not Level LEVEL Not Level 3.
