AWARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using this appliance,
follow basic precautions,
including
the following:
. Gas supply requirements:
As shipped from
the factory,
this dryer
is configured
for use
with natural
gas. It can be converted
for use with LP (Liquefied
Propane)
gas. Gas pressure must not exceed 13 inches of
water
column.
. A qualified
service or gas company
technician
must connect
the dryer to the gas service.
Failure to do so can result in fire, 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 fire, 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 or
Canadian
gas installation
code CSA B149.1. A 1/s- inch NPT
pipe plug must be installed.
Failure to do so can result in fire,
explosion,
or death
. If using a rigid pipe, the rigid pipe should
be 1/2- inch IPS.
If acceptable
under local codes and ordinances
and when
acceptable
to your gas supplier, % - inch 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 fire, explosion,
or death.
. Connect the dryer to the type of gas shown on the nameplate.
Failure to do so can result in fire, 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 fire, explosion,
or
death.
. DO NOT use an open flame
to inspect for gas leaks. Use a
noncorrosive
leak-detection
fluid.
Failure to do so can result in
fire, explosion,
or death.
. Use only a new AGA- or CSA-certified
gas supply line with
flexible
stainless steel connectors.
Failure to do so can result in
fire, explosion,
or death.
. Securely tighten
all gas connections.
Failure to do so can result
in fire, explosion,
or death.
. DO NOT attempt
any disassembly
of the dryer; any
disassembly
requires
the attention
and tools of an authorized
and qualified
service person or company.
Failure to do so can
result in fire, explosion,
or death.
. Use a pipe-joint
compound
that is insoluble
in Liquefied
Petroleum
(LP) gas on all pipe threads.
Failure to do so can
result in fire, explosion,
or death.
