INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Electrical Requirements

WARNING

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.

•A 120-Volt, 60-Hz., AC-only, 15- or 20-

ampere fused electrical supply is required.

•A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is

recommended. Be sure fuse or circuit

breaker matches the rating of your line.

•Use a separate circuit serving only

your dryer.

•Do not use an extension cord.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be grounded.

In the event of malfunction or breakdown,

grounding will reduce the risk of electric

shock by providing a path of least

resistance for electric current. This

appliance is equipped with a cord having

an equipment-grounding conductor and a

grounding plug. The power supply cord

must be plugged into an appropriate outlet

that is properly installed and grounded in

accordance with all local codes and

ordinances.

WARNING: Improper connection of the

equipment-grounding conductor can result

in a risk of electric shock.

Check with a qualified electrician or

serviceman if you are in doubt as to

whether the appliance is properly

grounded. Do not modify the plug provided

with the appliance – if it will not fit the

outlet, have a proper outlet installed.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

How to install your dryer

Now that you’ve unpacked your dryer, check

to be sure you have removed the parts bag

from the drum. Remove the tape that holds

the drum to the cabinet. Move the drum by

hand to make certain all tape has been

removed. Next, wipe the interior of the drum

thoroughly with a damp cloth before using

the dryer.

Installation

For most jobs all you need are a level, duct

tape, an adjustable wrench, and a screw-

driver. All the parts you need are packed in

the appliance. When you take them out,

place them on a cloth so you won’t lose

them. Do not move appliance into the exact

location until the following steps have been

performed.

Installing the cord bracket

•Remove tape from the power cord and the

rear panel

•Insert cord brackets into slotted holes in

rear panel and secure with screws provided

NOTE: Power supply cord may be wrapped

around the brackets for storage convenience

when dryer is not in use.

Parts supplied with the dryer:

1 Cycle and temperature control (timer) knob

1 Push to Start button

4 Casters

2 Cord brackets

2 Screws

Casters

To install the casters, first lay dryer on its

side. Use the carton to prevent damage to

the dryer. Screw casters into dryer base at

four corners and tighten securely. Set dryer

upright. In doing so be careful that dryer

does not roll away from you.

Leveling feet (Part No. 51594200) for use in

permanent installations may be purchased.

See the “Assistance or Service” section.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Exhaust requirements

Your dryer must be properly vented to

achieve maximum drying efficiency.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, this

dryer MUST BE EXHAUSTED OUTDOORS.

•Do not exhaust dryer into a chimney, a wall,

a ceiling, or a concealed space of a building.

•The diameter of the heavy metal vent must

be 4 in.

•Do not use an exhaust hood with a

magnetic latch.

If using an existing exhaust system, remove

accumulated lint.

1. Disconnect vent from the dryer and clean

one section at a time until you reach the

exhaust hood.

2. Use the hose attachment on your

vacuum, or a pole with a feather duster

or rag attached, to clean out lint.

3. Make sure exhaust hood is not plugged

with lint. Be sure the flapper on the

outside end of vent moves freely.

Clean exhaust vent periodically, depending

on use, but at least every 2 years, or when

installing your dryer in a new location.

wWARNING

Fire Hazard

Use a heavy metal vent.

Do not use a plastic vent.

Do not use a metal foil vent.

Failure to follow these instructions

can result in death or fire.

3977631 v12 c51 3/22/99 5:11 PM Page 8

Before installing the exhaust system, be

sure to remove the wire exhaust guard that

is located at the exhaust outlet.

Wire exhaust guard

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Use duct tape to seal all joints. Do not use

screws to secure vent. Lint may catch on

screws.

Use 4 inch heavy metal vent. Do not kink or

crush flexible metal vent. It must be fully

extended to allow adequate exhaust air to

flow. Check vent after installation.

Use the straightest path possible when

routing the exhaust vent. Use the fewest

number of elbows and turns. Allow as much

room as possible when using elbows or

making turns. Bend vent gradually to avoid

kinking. Remove excess flexible vent to

avoid sagging and kinking that may result in

reduced airflow.

Maximum length of the exhaust system

depends upon the type of vent used,

number of elbows, and the type of exhaust

hood. The maximum length for both heavy

and flexible vent is shown on the next page.

Exhaust outlet at rear of dryer is located as

illustrated. Detailed instructions on spacing

for side and rear clearances can be found in

the “Recessed area and closet installation”

section.

NOTE: Check periodically to ensure that

the outside exhaust hood is not blocked.

The maximum length of the exhaust system

depends upon:

•The type of vent (rigid or flexible metal).

•The number of elbows (90° turns) used.

To determine maximum vent length:

1. See the Exhaust Hood Type chart that

matches your type hood for the maximum

vent lengths you can use.

Do not use vent runs longer than

specified in Exhaust Hood Type chart.

Exhaust systems longer than specified will:

•Shorten the life of the dryer.

•Reduce performance, resulting in

longer drying times and increased

energy usage.

2. Determine the number of elbows you will

need.

3. In the column listing the type of metal vent

you are using (rigid or flexible), find the

maximum length of metal vent on the

same line as the number of elbows.
