CONNECTING GAS DRYERS
wWARNING:
appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following:
• Gas supply requirements:
As shipped from the factory, this dryer
is confi gured for use with natural gas.
It can be converted for use with LP (Liquefi ed
Propane) gas. Gas pressure
must not exceed 13 in. water column.
• A qualifi ed service or gas company technician
must connect the dryer to the gas service.
Failure to do so can result in fi re, explosion, or
death.
• Isolate the dryer from the gas supply system
by closing its individual manual shutoff valve
during any pressure testing of the gas supply.
Failure to do so can result in fi re, explosion, or
death.
• Supply line requirements:
Your laundry room must have a rigid gas
supply line to your dryer. In the United States,
an individual manual shutoff valve MUST be
installed within at least 6 ft. (1.8 m) of the
dryer, in accordance with the National Fuel
Gas Code ANSI Z223.1. A 1/8-in. NPT pipe
plug must be installed. Failure to do so can
result in fi re, explosion, or death.
• If using a rigid pipe, the rigid pipe should be
1/2-in. IPS. If acceptable under local codes
and ordinances and when acceptable to your
gas supplier, 3/8-in. approved tubing may be
used where lengths are less than 20 ft. (6.1
m). Larger tubing should be used for lengths
in excess of 20 ft. (6.1 m). Failure to do so can
result in fi re, explosion, or death.
Electrical Requirements for Gas Models Only
• D o not, under any circumstances, cut or
remove the third (ground) prong from the
power cord. Failure to follow this warning can
result in fi re, explosion, or death.
• F or personal safety, this dryer must be
properly grounded. Failure to follow this warning
can result in fi re, explosion, or death.
• T he power cord of this dryer is equipped with
a 3-prong (grounding) plug which mates with
a standard 3-prong (grounding) wall outlet
to minimize the possibility of electric shock
hazard from this appliance. Failure to follow
this warning can result in fi re, explosion,
or death.

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using this
• Connect the dryer to the type of gas shown
on the nameplate. Failure to do so can result in
fi re, explosion, or death.
• To prevent contamination of the gas valve,
purge the gas supply of air and sediment
before connecting the gas supply to the dryer.
Before tightening the connection between the
gas supply and the dryer, purge remaining air
until the odor of gas is detected. Failure to do
so can result in fi re, explosion, or death.
• DO NOT use an open fl ame to inspect for
gas leaks. Use a noncorrosive leak-detection
fl uid. Failure to do so can result in fi re, explosion,
or death.
• Use only a new AGA- or CSA-certified gas
supply line with fl exible stainless steel
connectors. Failure to do so can result in fi re,
explosion, or death.
• Securely tighten all gas connections. Failure to
do so can result in fi re, explosion, or death.
• Use Tefl on
®
tape or a pipe-joint compound
that is insoluble in Liquefi ed Petroleum (LP)
gas on all pipe threads. Failure to do so can
result in fi re, explosion, or death.
• DO NOT attempt any disassembly of the
dryer; any disassembly requires the attention
and tools of an authorized and qualifi ed
service person or company. Failure to do so
can result in fi re, explosion, or death.
• T his dryer must be plugged into a
120-VAC, 60-Hz. grounded outlet protected by
a 15-ampere fuse or circuit breaker. Failure to
follow this warning can result in fi re, explosion, or
death.
• Where a standard 2-prong wall outlet is
encountered, it is your personal responsibility
and obligation to have it replaced with a
properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet. Failure
to follow this warning can result in fi re, explosion,
or death.
