3. Open the shutoff valve in the supply line. The valve is open
when the handle is parallel to the gas pipe.
4. Test all connections by brushing on an approved
noncorrosive leak-detection solution. Bubbles will show a
leak. Correct any leak found.
Connect Vent
1. Using a 4" (10.2 cm) clamp, connect vent to exhaust outlet in
dryer. If connecting to existing vent, make sure the vent is
clean. The dryer vent must fit over the dryer exhaust outlet
and inside the exhaust hood. Check that the vent is secured
to exhaust hood with a 4" (10.2 cm) clamp.
2. Move dryer into its final location. Do not crush or kink vent.
3. (On gas models) Check that there are no kinks in the flexible
gas line.
4. Once the exhaust vent connection is made, remove the
corner posts and cardboard.
Connect Inlet Hose
The dryer must be connected to the cold water faucet using the
new inlet hoses. Do not use old hoses.
1. Turn cold water faucet off and remove washer inlet hose.
2. Remove old rubber washer from inlet hose and replace with
new rubber washer provided. If space permits, attach the
brass female end of the “Y” connector to the cold water
faucet.
NOTE: If “Y” connector can be attached directly to cold water
faucet, go to Step 6. If “Y” connector cannot be attached
directly to the cold water faucet, the short hose must be
used. Continue with Step 3.
3. Attach short hose to cold water faucet. Screw on cou pling by
hand until it is seated on faucet.
4. Using pliers, tighten the couplings with an additional two-
thirds turn.
NOTE: Do not overtighten. Damage to the coup ling can
result.
5. Attach “Y” connector to brass male end of small hose. Screw
on coupling by hand until it is seated on connector.
6. Attach straight end of long hose to “Y” connector.
7. Attach washer cold inlet hose to other end of “Y” connector.
Screw on coupling by hand until it is seated on connector.
8. Using pliers, tighten the couplings with an additional two-
thirds turn.
NOTE: Do not overtighten. Damage to the coupli ng can
result.
9. Attach angled end of long hose to fill valve at bottom of dryer
back panel. Screw on coupling by hand until it is seated on fill
valve connector.
10. Using pliers, tighten the coupling with an additional two-
thirds turn.
NOTE: Do not overtighten. Damage to the coupli ng can
result.
11. Check that the water faucets are on.
12. Check for leaks around “Y” connector, faucet and hoses.
Level Dryer
Check the levelness of the dryer. Check levelness first side to
side, then front to back.
If the dryer is not level, prop up the dryer using a wood block.
Use a wrench to adjust the legs up or down and check again for
levelness.
