*Please refer to the Use & Care instruction booklet provided with this laundry center for further details.
WARNING - RISK OF FIRE
• Ensure the entire dryer exhaust system is clean and free of lint and debris prior to the
installation of your new laundry center. The entire exhaust system should be inspected and
cleaned a minimum of every 18 months with normal usage. Failure to comply with cleaning
your exhaust system will increase the RISK of FIRE.
• DO NOT install a clothes dryer with flexible plastic or flexible foil venting material. Flexible
venting materials are known to collapse, be easily crushed and trap lint. These conditions will
obstruct clothes dryer airflow and increase the risk of fire.
• DO NOT screen the exhaust ends of the vent system, or use any screws, rivets or other
fasteners that extend into the duct to assemble the exhaust system. NO screen or grate of
any mesh size is allowed to cover the outdoor exhaust opening.
• Install the laundry center according to the manufacturer's instructions and local codes.
• Laundry Center installation and service must be performed by a qualified installer, service
agency or the gas supplier.
• The electrical service to the dryer must conform with local codes and ordinances and the
latest edition of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, or in Canada, the Canadian
Electrical Code CSA C22.1 part 1.
• The gas service to the dryer must conform with local codes and ordinances and the latest
edition of the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, or in Canada, the Natural Gas
and Propane Installation Code, CSA B149.1. An individual manual shutoff valve must be
installed within 6 ft. (1.83 m) of the dryer in accordance with the National Fuel Gas Code,
ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54.
• The laundry center is designed under ANSI Z21.5.1/CSA 7.1 or UL 2158 - CAN/CSA C22.2
No. 112 (latest editions) for HOME USE only. This laundry center is not recommended for
commercial applications such as restaurants, beauty salons, etc.
• Destroy the carton and plastic bags after the laundry center is unpacked. Children might use
them to play. Cartons covered with rugs, bedspreads, or plastic sheets can become airtight
chambers causing suffocation. Place all materials in a garbage container or make materials
inaccessible to children.

the event of malfunction or breakdown,
grounding will reduce the risk of electrical
shock by a path of least resistance for
electrical current.
2. Since your laundry center is equipped with
a power supply cord having an equipment-
grounding conductor and a grounding
plug, the plug MUST be plugged into
an appropriate, copper wired receptacle
that is properly installed and grounded
in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances or in the absence of local codes,
with the National Electrical Codes, ANSI/
NFPA 70 (latest edition), or in Canada, the
Canadian electrical code C22.1 part 1. If in
doubt, call a licensed electrician.
DO NOT cut off or alter the grounding prong
on the power supply cord. In situations
where a two-slot receptacle is present,
it is the owner's responsibility to have a
licensed electrician replace it with a properly
grounded three prong grounding type
receptacle.
