SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLATION

WARNING:
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using this appliance,
follow basic precautions, including the following:
• Properly ground dryer to conform with all
governing codes and ordinances. Follow details in
the installation instructions. Electrical shock can result
if the dryer is not properly grounded.
• Before use, the dryer must be properly installed
as described in this manual. Electrical 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, electrical
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, electrical
shock, or death.
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.
Failure to do so can cause deform, smoke and fire.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

• Connect to a properly rated, protected, and sized
power circuit to avoid electrical overload. Improper
power circuit can melt, creating electrical 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.
• Do not install nearby heat item. Such as stove,
cooking oven. Failure to do so can cause deform,
smoke and fire.
• Do not place candle and cigarettes on top of the
product. Failure to do so can cause deform, smoke
and fire.
• Remove all protective vinyl film from the product.
Failure to do so can cause deform, smoke and fire.
• The exhaust duct must be 4 in. (10.2 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
ULlisted 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.
