  • Page 2: Uncrating

    IMPORTANT TO OWNER Retain these instructions for future reference. This new Maytag appliance is designed to serve you dependably for many years. However, it cannot do so unless provided with sufficient electrical power, suitable exhausting and if a gas model, adequate gas supply. We urge you to read this carefully to make sure all requirements are met.
  • Page 3: Pre-Installation Considerations

    PREINSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS Location: The stacked washer/dryer is approved for zero clearance installation on the sides and the back (depending on venting used). The loca- tion selected must take into consideration the dimensions of the unit and convenience for cus- tomer use and access in case service should be needed.
  • Page 4: Alcove Or Closet Installation

    ALCOVE OR CLOSET INSTALLATION When the stacked washer/dryer is to be installed in an alcove area or a closet, clearance should be provided around the unit for an adequate air supply and for ease of installation and servicing. An appliance installed in a closet shall have no...
  • Page 5: Direct Exhaust

    When located in a bedroom, bathroom or closet, the dryer must be exhausted to the outside. The stacked washer/dryer can only be exhaust- ed out the back. A 4 inch vent should be installed to accept the exhaust from the dryer.
  • Page 6: Rigid Ductwork Limitations

    RIGID DUCTWORK LIMITATIONS Rigid metal ductwork should not exceed 54 feet of straight 4 inch duct. Each 90° elbow and the exhaust hood should be considered equivalent to 8 feet of straight ductwork. For example, if an exhaust hood and two 90° elbows are used, the maximum straight duct allowed would be 26 feet.

ADDITIONAL GROUND PROCEDURE WHERE LOCAL CODE PERMITS. A grounding kit (Part No. 12001875) is available. It contains the external ground wire, clamp, ground screw and washer.
