INSTALLATIONINSTRUCTIONS- GASDRYER

Excessive Weight Hazard

Use two or more people to move and install dryer.

Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.

1. Remove red cap from gas pipe.

2. Connect gas supply to dryer. Use pipe-joint compound

resistant to the action of LR gas for gas connections. If

flexible metal tubing is used, be certain there are no kinks.

If necessary for service, open the toe panel. Use a putty knife

to press on the toe panel locks located near the two ends of

the toe panel. Pull downward on the toe panel to open. Toe

panel is hinged at the bottom.

3. Open the shutoff valve in the gas supply line.

4. Test all connections by brushing on an approved noncorrosive

leak-detection solution. Bubbles will show a leak. Correct any

leaks found.

1. Using a 4" (102 mm) clamp, connect vent to exhaust outlet

in dryer. If connecting to existing vent, make sure the vent is

clean. The dryer vent must fit over the dryer exhaust outlet

and inside the exhaust hood. Make sure the vent is secured

to exhaust hood with a 4" (102 mm) clamp.

2. Using two or more people, move dryer to desired installation

location. Do not crush or kink vent. Make sure dryer is level.

3. Check to be sure there are no kinks in the flexible gas line.

With dryer in final position, place level on top of the dryer, first

side to side; then front to back. If the dryer is not level, adjust

the legs of the dryer up or down until the dryer is level.

Electrical Shock Hazard

Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

Do not remove ground prong.

Do not use an adapter.

Do not use an extension cord.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,

fire, or electrical shock.

2. Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

3. Check dryer operation (some accumulated time may be on

the timer on mechanical timer models due to factory testing).

Push START/RESTART button. Using a high heat cycle (not

the air cycle), let the dryer run for at least five minutes. Dryer

will stop when time is used up. Make sure the dryer turns off.

NOTE: Dryer door must be closed for dryer to operate. When

door is open, dryer stops, but timer continues to run. To

restart dryer, close door and push START/RESTART button.

4. If the burner does not ignite and you can feel no heat inside

the dryer, shut off dryer for five minutes. Check that all supply

valve controls are in "ON" position and that the electrical cord

is plugged in. Repeat five-minute test.

5. If drying time is too long, make sure lint screen is clean.
