IMPORTANT TO INSTALLER

PLEASE READ TIlE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS CARSEFUT._LY BEFORE

STARTING TO INSTALL TI_ DRYER. THESE INSTRUCTIONS SHOL_LD BE

RETAINED FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.

REMOVE THE DOOR FROM ALL DISCARDED APPLIANCES SUCH AS DRYERS

TO AVOID THE DANGER OF A CHILD SUFFOCATING.

LOCATION CONSIDERATIONS

The dryer should be located to permit adequate room in front for loading the dryer, and suf-

ficient room behind the dryer for the exhaust system.

This dryer is factory-ready for rear exhaust. To exhaust out the bottom or left side use the

accessory exhaust kit (see Accessories). Instructions are included win the kit.

It is important to make sure the room has adequate make-up air. The area where the dryer is

located must not obstruct the flow of combustion or ventilating air.

On gas dryers, adequate clearance as noted on the data plate must be maintained to insure

adequate air for combustion and proper operation of the dryer.

THE DRYER MUST NOT BE INSTALLED OR STORED IN AN AREA WHERE IT

WILL BE EXPOSED TO WEATHER AND/OR WEATHER. THE DRYER AREAS IS TO

BE KEPT CLEAR AND FREE FROM COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS, GASOLINE AND

OTHER FLAMMABLE VAPORS AND LIQUIDS. A DRYER PRODUCES COMBUS-

TIBLE LINT, THE AREA AROUND THE DRYER SHOULD BE KEPT FREE OF LINT.

ALCOVE OR CLOSET INSTALLATION

WARNING -The

dryer must be ex-

hausted to the

outside to reduce the

risk of fire when

installed in an alcove

or closet.

An appliance installed in a closet shall have no other fuel-burning appliance installed in the

same closet.

Each opening area in the door must have a minimum of 36 square inches. These openings

must not be obstructed. (Louvered door with equivalent air opemng is acceptable).

Minimum installation clearances. If possible, more clearance is recommended

MOBILE HOME INSTALLATION

The installation of the dryer in mobile homes must conform to the Manufactured Home

Construction and Safety Standard Title 24 CFR, Part 32-80 (formerly the Federal Standard

for Mobile Home Construction and Safety, TNe 24 HUD (Part 280), 1975 for the United

States), or CSA Standards Z240 (for Canada).

When installing a dryer in a mobile home, provisions for anchoring the dryer to the floor

must be made. An anchor bracket kit is available with instructions (see Accessories).

Locate in an area that has adequate makeup air. A minimum of 25 square inches of unob-

structed opening is required.

All mobile home installations must be exhausted to the outside with the exhaust duct termi-

nation securely fastened to the mobile home structure, using materials that will not support

combustion. The exhaust duct may not terminate beneath the mobile home. See the section

on exhausting for more information.

EXHAUSTING

Exhausting the dryer to the outside will prevem large amounts of tint and moisture from

being blown into the room.

In the United States:

- all gas dryers must be exhausted to the outside

- electric dryers located in a confined area such as a bedroom, bathroom, or closet must be

exhausted to the outside.

- electric dryers not located in a confined area may be exhausted to the inside (see

nonexhausted installations).

In Canada:

- all gas and electric dryers must be exhausted to the outside. WARNING -

plastic or nonmetal

ftexibte duct pre-

sents a potential fire

hazard.

NEVER USE PLASTIC

NON METAL FLEXIBLE DUCT.

If your existing ductwork is p_astio,

nonmetal or combustible, reptace

it with metal. Use onty metal

exhaust duct that wilt not support

combustion to insure the cantain-

merit of exhaust air, heat and iint.

Plastic flexible duct can kink, sag, be punctured, reduce airflow, extend drying times,

and affect dryer operation.

USE AMIN/MUM OF 4 INCH DIAMETER RIGID ALUM!NqJM OR RIGID GAL-

VANIZED STEEL DUCT. Do not use smaller duct. Ducts larger than 4 inches in

diameter can result in increased lint accumulation. Lint accumulation should be cleaned

regularly. If flexible metal duct must be used, use the type with a stiff sheet metal wall. do

not use flexibIe duct with a thin foiI wall. Serious blockage can result if flexible metal duct

is bent too sharp. Never install any type of flexible duct in walls, ceilings or other concealed

places.

Keep exhaust duct as straight and short as possible. Exhaust systems longer than recom-

mended can extend drying times, affect machine operation, and may collect lint. Secure

joints with duct tape. Do not use screws.

DO NOT EXHAUST DRYER INTO ANY WALL, CEILING, CRAWL SPACE OR A

CONCEALED PLACE OF A BUILDING, GAS VENT, ANY OTHER COMMON

DUCT OR CtIIMNEY. THIS COULD CREATE A FIRE HAZARD FROM LINT

EXPELLED BY THE DRYER.

The exhaust duct should end with an exhaust hood with a swing out damper to prevent

backdrafts and entry of wildlife. Never use an exhaust hood with a magnetic damper. The

hood should have a least 12 inches of clearance between the bottom of the hood and the

ground or other obstruction. The hood opening should point down. Never install a screen

over the exhaust outlet.

Wqaen possible, do not exhaust the dryer directly over a window welt in order to avoid tint

build-up. Do not exhaust under a house or porch.

GAS REQUIREMENTS

Use only Natural or LP gases.

THE INSTALLATION MUST CONI_ORM WITH LOCAL CODES, OR IN THE

ABSENCE OF LOCAL CODES, WITH THE NATIONAL FUEL GAS CODE

ANSI/Z223.1, LATEST REVISION (FOR THE UNITED STATES), OR WITH TIlE

CAN/CGA-B149 INSTALLATION CODES (FOR CANADA).

Gas dryers are equipped with a burner orifice for operation on NATURAL gas. If the dryer

is to be operated on LP (liquid propane) gas, it must be convened for safe and proper per-

formance and must be converted by a qualified service technician, conversion kits from

NATURAL to LP, or LP to NATURAL are available through you local Maytag dealer (see

Accessories). If other conversions are required, check with the local gas utility for specific

information concerning conversion requirements.

A t/2" gas supply line is recommended and must be reduced to connect to the 3/8" gas line

on the dryer.

The National Fuel Gas Code requires that an acceptable, approved manual gas shut off valve

be installed within 6 feet of the dryer.

Additionally, a 1/8" N.P.T (National Pipe Thread) plugged tapping, accessible for test gauge

connection, must be installed immediately upstream of the gas supply connection to the

dryer.

The dryer must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure test-

ing of the system.

DO NOT re-use old flexible metal gas line. Flexible gas line must be design certified by

American Gas Association (CGA in Canada). NOTE: Any pipe joint compound used must

be resistant to the action of any liquefied petroleum gas,

NOTE: As a courtesy, most local gas utilities will inspect a gas appliance installation.

GAS IGNITION

This dryer uses an automatic ignkion system to ignite the burner. There is no constant

burning pilot.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

NOTE: Wiring diagram is located inside the control console.

WARNING - To

prevent urlr_ecas-

sary risk of fire,

electrical shock or

personal injury, all

wiring and

be done in accordance with

focal codes, or in the absence

of local codes, with the Na_

tional Electrical Code, ANSI/

NFPA (for the Untted States) or

the Canadian Electrical code

CSA C22,1 (for Canada).

GROENDING

This dryer must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or breakdown, the ground wilI

reduce the risk of electrical shock by providing a path of teast resistance for electric current.

GAS MODELS

This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a

grounding pIug. The ptug must be pIugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly

installed and grounded in accordance with all loca! codes and ordinances.

WARNING- Improper

equipment grounding

conductor can result in

a risk or 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 k will not fit the outlet, have a

proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

wire to back of unit by using the wire found in the accessory kit. Secure other end of ground

wire to a suitable external ground connection. The wire may be secured with the clamp (in

the accessory kit) to a grounded COLD metal water pipe.

NEVER CONNECT GROUND WIRE TO PLASTIC PLUMBING LINES, GAS LINES OR

HOT WATER PIPES.

NOTE: Cabinet ground screw and washer are found in the customer package.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

BEFORE OPERATING OR TESTING, follow all grounding instructions in Grounding

Section.

An individual branch (or separate) circuit serving only this appliance is recommended. DO
