installing dryer in garages, closets, mobile homes, or sleeping
quarters. Contact your local building inspector.
You will need:
n A location allowing for proper exhaust installation.
See "Venting Requirements."
n A separate 30 amp circuit.
n A grounded electrical outlet located within 2 ft. (610 mm) of
either side of dryer. See "Electrical Requirements."
n Floor must support dryer weight of 200 lbs. (90.7 kg).
Also consider weight of companion appliance.
n Level floor with maximum slope of 1" (25 mm) under entire
dryer.
n The dryer must not be installed or stored in an area where
it will be exposed to water and/or weather.
IMPORTANT: Do not operate, install, or store dryer where
it will be exposed to water, weather, or at temperatures below
45° F (7° C). Lower temperatures may cause dryer not to
shut off at end of sensor cycles, resulting in longer drying times.

installation of the dryer in garages, closets, mobile homes, or
sleeping quarters. Contact your local building inspector.
