Make sure the burner nozzle is proper for
the type of gas you are provided with.
For instance, using LPG with LNG nozzle

your laundry room is appropriate for the
dryer. The dryer is prepared for Natural

connection at the back of the dryer.
Make sure that you don't damage the
threads of the gas connection pipe when
you remove the shipping cap.
3. Connect the dryer to your laundry room's
gas supply using a new flexible stainless
steel connector (as noted below, only use
a new stainless steel flexible connector if
allowed by your local codes) using Pipe
Joint Compound that is insoluble in gas
for all gas line connection points.
*Do not use Teflon tape
4. Securely tighten all connections between
the dryer and your laundry room's gas
supply. Turn on your laundry room's gas
supply and check all pipe connections
(both internal and external) for gas leaks
with a non-corrosive leak detection fluid.

not necessary. The A.G.A. certifies this dryer

If your house is above 10,000 feet, you
are required to adjust a four percent(4%)
reduction of the burner B.T.U rating indicated
on the model/serial rating plate.
