SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS FOR MANUFACTURED OR MOBILE HOMES

Any installation in a manufactured or mobile home must comply with the Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standards Title 24 CFR, Part 32-80 or Standard CAN/CSA0Z240 MH and local codes and ordinances. If you are uncertain whether your proposed installation will comply with these standards, please contact a service and installation professional for assistance.

A gas dryer must be permanently attached to the floor.

The electrical connection for an electric dryer must be a 4-wire connection. More detailed information concerning the electrical connection is provided in the section Connecting Electric Dryers.

To reduce the risk of combustion and fire, the dryer must be vented to the outside.

DO NOT vent the dryer under a manufactured home or mobile home.

Electric dryers may be vented to the outside using the back, left, right, or bottom panel.

Gas dryers may be vented to the outside using the back, left, or bottom panel. Gas dryers may not be vented to the outside using the right side panel because of the burner housing.

The dryer exhaust duct must be affixed securely to the manufactured or mobile home structure, and the exhaust duct must be made of a material that will resist fire and combustion.

It is recommended that you use a rigid or flexible metal duct.

DO NOT connect the dryer exhaust duct to any other duct, vent, chimney, or other exhaust duct.

Make sure the dryer has adequate access to outside fresh air to ensure proper operation. The opening for outside fresh air must be at least 25 in2 (163 cm2).

It is important that the clearance of the duct from any combustible construction be at least 2 in. (5 cm), and when venting the dryer to the outdoors, the dryer can be installed with a clearance of 1 in. (2.5 cm) at the sides and back of the dryer.

Please be aware that venting materials are not supplied with the dryer. You should obtain the venting materials necessary for proper installation.

FINAL INSTALLATION CHECK

Once you have completed the installation of the dryer and it is in its final location, confirm proper operation with the following tests.

Testing Dryer Heating

GAS MODELS

Close the dryer door, press the ON/OFF switch to turn the dryer on, and start the dryer on a heat setting. When the dryer starts, the igniter should ignite the main burner.

NOTE: If all air is not purged from the gas line, the gas igniter may turn off before the main burner ignites. If this happens, the igniter will reattempt gas ignition after approximately two minutes.

ELECTRIC MODELS

Close the dryer door, press the ON/OFF switch to turn the dryer on, and start the dryer on a heat setting. The exhaust air should be warm after the dryer has been operating for 3 minutes.

Checking Airflow

Effective dryer operation requires proper airflow. The adequacy of the airflow can be measured by evaluating the static pressure. Static pressure in the exhaust duct can be measured with

a manometer, placed on the exhaust duct approximately 2 ft. (60.9 cm) from the dryer. Static pressure in the exhaust duct should not exceed 0.6 in. (1.5 cm). The dryer should be checked while the dryer is running with no load.

Checking Levelness

Once the dryer is in its final location, recheck the dryer to be sure it is level. Make sure it is level front to back and side to side, and that all 4 leveling feet are firmly on the floor.
