You will need

A location that allows for proper exhaust installation. See "Venting Requirements."

A separate30-amp circuit.

A grounded electrical outlet located within 2 ft (61 cm) of either side of the dryer. See "Electrical Requirements."

A sturdy floor to support the total dryer weight of 200 Ibs (90.7 kg). The combined weight of a companion appliance should also be considered.

A level floor with a maximum slope of 1" (2.5 cm) under entire dryer. (If slope is greater than 1" [2.5 cm], install Extended Dryer Feet Kit, Part Number 279810.) Clothes may not tumble properly and automatic sensor cycles may not operate correctly if dryer is not level.

For a garage installation, you will need to place the dryer at least 18" (46 cm) above the floor. If using a pedestal, you will need an additional 6" (15.24 cm).

Do not operate your dryer at temperatures below 45°F (7°C). At lower temperatures, the dryer might not shut off at the end of an automatic cycle. Drying times can be extended.

The dryer must not be installed or stored in an area where it will be exposed to water and/or weather.

Check code requirements. Some codes limit, or do not permit, installation of the dryer in garages, closets, mobile homes, or sleeping quarters. Contact your local building inspector.

*Most installations require a minimum 51/2''(14 cm) clearance behind the dryer for the exhaust vent with elbow. See "Venting Requirements."

Minimum installation spacing for recessed area, custom undercounter or closet installation

The following dimensions shown are for the minimum spacing allowed.

Additional spacing should be considered for ease of installation and servicing.

Additional clearances might be required for wall, door and floor moldings.

Additional spacing of 1" (2.5 cm) on all sides of the dryer is recommended to reduce noise transfer.

For closet installation, with a door, minimum ventilation openings in the top and bottom of the door are required. Louvered doors with equivalent ventilation openings are acceptable.

Companion appliance spacing should also be considered.
