Electrical requirements

Electrical Shock Hazard

l Electrical ground is required on this appliance.

lDo Not ground to a gas pipe.

l Do Not modify the power supply cord plug. If it does not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

lDo Not have a fuse in the neutral or grounding circuit. A fuse in the neutral or

grounding circuit could result in an electrical shock.

l Do Not use an extension cord with this appliance.

l Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.

Failure to follow these instructions could result in serious injury or death.

If codes permit and a separate grounding wire is used, it is recommended that a qualified electrician determine that the grounding path is adequate.

A 120~volt, 60-Hz, AC-only, 15-or 20-ampere fused electrical supply is required. Time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only

this appliance be provided.

Recommended grounding method

For your personal safety, this appliance must be grounded. This appliance is equipped with a power supply cord having a 3-prong grounding plug. To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord must be plugged into a mating 3-prong grounding-type wall receptacle, grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code, ANSVNFPA 70 - latest edition, and all local codes and ordinances. If a mating wall receptacle is not available, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the customer to have a properly grounded 3-prongwall receptacle installed by a qualified electrician.

Exhaust requirements

Fire/Health Hazard

l Do Not use non-metal, flexible duct.

lDo Not use metal duct smaller than four inches in diameter.

l Do Not Use exhaust hoods with magnetic latches.

l Check that exhaust system is not longer than specified. Exhaust systems longer than specified will:

-Accumulate lint.

-Shorten the life of the dryer.

-Reduce performance, resulting in longer drying times and increased energy

usage.

Failure to follow specifications may result in a fire.

lDo Not exhaust dryer into a chimney, furnace cold air duct, attic or crawl space, or any other duct used for venting.

l Clean the exhaust system every other year.

l Do Not install flexible duct in enclosed walls, ceilings or f loors.

Accumulated lint could result in a fire or cause moisture damage.

l Exhaust the dryer outside to prevent exposure to substances in the gas fuels and combustion which may be harmful to your health.

The moisture and lint indoors may cause:

-Lint to gather inside and around the dryer and be a fuel for fire.

-Moisture damage to woodwork, furniture, paint, wallpaper, carpet, etc.

-Housecleaning problems and possible health problems.

Failure to follow these instructions could result in fire damage, property damage, personal injury or health problems.

Use duct tape to

seal all joints.

For mobile home installation, the dyer must have an outside exhaust. If you exhaust the dyer through the floor and

the area under your mobile home is enclosed, the exhaust system must terminate outside the enclosed area. Extension beyond the enclosure will prevent lint and moisture build-up under the mobile home.

The exhaust duct can be routed up, down, left, right or straight out of the back of the dyer. Detailed space requirements can be found in

“Recessed and closet installation instructions” on Panel C. Use the straightest path you can, where possible, to avoid 90” turns.

Metal flexible duct should be fully extended and supported when the dyer is in final position. DO NOT KINK OR CRUSH THE DUCT. The metal flexible duct must be completely open to allow adequate exhaust air to flow.

An exhaust hood should cap the exhaust duct to prevent exhausted air from returning into dyer. The outlet of the hood must be at least 12 inches from the ground or anything else that may be in the path of the exhaust.

A 44nch outlet hood is preferred. However, a 2-l/2-inch outlet may be used with short systems only. (This outlet can result in longer dying times than other hood types.)

For permanent installation, a stationary exhaust system is required.

The exhaust outlet is located at the bottom center back of the dyer. Detailed space requirements can be found in the “Recessed and closet installation instructions,” Panel C and on back panel of dyer.

The maximum length of the exhaust system depends upon the type of duct used, number of elbows and type of exhaust hood. The maximum length for both rigid and flexible duct is shown in chart.

The maximum length using a 2” x 6” rectangular duct

with 2 elbows and a 2-112” (Type C) exhaust hood is 8 ft.

For exhaust systems not covered by the exhaust length chart, see Service Manual, Part No. 603197 available from your local parts distributor.

Service check: The back pressure in any exhaust system used must not exceed 0.6 inches of water column measured with an incline manometer at the point that the exhaust duct connects to the dyer.
