Remove red cap from gas pipe. Using a wrench to tighten, connect gas supply to dryer. Use pipe-joint compound on threads of all non-flared male fittings. If flexible metal tubing is used, be sure there are no kinks.

NOTE: For LP gas connections, you must use pipe-joint compound resistant to action of LP gas. Do not use TEFLON®† tape.

A combination of pipe fittings must be used to connect dryer to existing gas line. A recommended connection is shown. Your connection may be different, according to supply line type, size, and location.

3. Open shut-off valve

Open shut-off valve in supply line; valve is open when handle is parallel to gas pipe. Then, test all connections by brushing on an approved noncorrosive leak-detection solution.

Bubbles will show a leak. Correct any leaks found.

CONNECT INLET HOSES

For non-steam models, skip to “Connect Vent” on page 15.

The dryer must be connected to the cold water faucet using the new inlet hoses. Do not use old hoses.
