GAS CONNECTION

1. Remove the shipping cap from gas pipe at the rear of the dryer.
NOTE: DO NOT connect the dryer to L.P. gas service without
converting the gas valve. An L.P. conversion kit must be installed
by a qualified gas technician.
2. Connect a 1/2 inch (1.27 cm) I.D. semi-rigid or approved pipe from
gas supply line to the 3/8 inch (0.96 cm) pipe located on the back
of the dryer (see pages 6 and 7). Use a 1/2 inch to 3/8 inch (1.27
cm to 0.96 cm) reducer for a connection. Apply an approved
thread sealer that is resistant to the corrosive action of liquefied
gases on all pipe connections.
3. Open the shutoff valve in the gassupply line to allow gas to flow
through the pipe.

GENERAL INSTALLATION

1. Connect the exhaust duct to outside exhaust system (see pages 2
and 3). Use duct tape to seal all joints.
2. With the dryer in its final position, adjust one or more of the legs
until the dryer is resting solid on all four legs. Place a level on top
of the dryer. The dryer MUST be level and resting solid on all
four legs.
3. Plug the power cord into a grounded outlet. NOTE: Check to
ensure the power is off at circuit breaker/fuse box before plugging
the power cord into the outlet.
4. Turn on the power at the circuit breaker/fuse box.
Before operating the dryer, make sure the
dryer area is clear and free from combustible materials,
gasoline, and other flammable vapors. Also see that
nothing (such as boxes, clothing, etc.) obstructs the flow
of combustion and ventilation air.
5. Run the dryer through a cycle check for proper operation.
NOTE: On gas dryers, before the burner will light, it is necessary
for the gas line to be bled of air. If the burner does not light within
45 seconds the first time the dryer is turned on, the safety switch
will shut the burner off. If this happens, turn the timer to "OFF" and
wait 5 minutes before making another attempt to light.
6. If your dryer does not operate, please review the "Avoid Service
Checklist" located in your Use and Care Guide before calling for
service.
7. Place these instructions in a location near the dryer for future
reference.
NOTE: A wiring diagram/tech sheet is in an envelope attached to
the inside side panel of the dryer by the blower housing.
Pedestal
A pedestal accessory, Model No. APWD15W, specifically designed
for this dryer may be used when elevating the dryer for ease of use.
Failure to use accessories certified by the manufacturer could result
in personal injury, property damage or damage to the dryer.

Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls.
Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous operation. Verify proper
operation after servicing.
Destroy the carton and plastic bags after the dryer is
unpacked. Children might use them for play. Cartons covered with rugs,
bedspreads, or plastic sheets can become airtight chambers causing
suffocation. Place all materials in a garbage container or make materials
inaccessible to children.
