LOCATION REQUIREMENTS

Explosion Hazard
Keep flammable materials and vapors,
such as gasoline, away from dryer.
Place dryer at least 18 inches (46 cm)
above the floor for a garage installation.
Failure to do so can result in death,
explosion, or fire.
You will need
• A location that allows for proper exhaust in-
stallation. See "Venting Requirements."
• A separate 30-amp circuit.
• If you are using a power supply cord, 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 weight
(dryer and load) of 200 lbs. (90.7 kg). The
combined weight of a companion appli-
ance should also be considered.
• A level floor with a maximum slope of
1˝ (2.5 cm) under entire dryer.
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 auto-
matic 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 inspec-
tor.
NOTE: No other fuel-burning appliance can
be installed in the same closet as a dryer.

Installation spacing for recessed area or
closet installation
The following spacing dimensions are recom-
mended for this dryer. This dryer has been
tested for spacing of 0˝ (0 cm) clearance on
the sides and rear. Recommended spacing
should be considered for the following rea-
sons:
• Additional spacing should be considered
for ease of installation and servicing.
• Additional clearances might be required for
wall, door and floor moldings.
• Additional spacing should be considered
on all sides of the dryer to reduce noise
transfer.
• For closet installation, with a door, mini-
mum 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.
