See "Electrical Requirements".
Floor must support dryer weight of 200 lbs. (90.7 kg).
■
Also consider weight of companion appliance.
Level floor with maximum slope of 1" (25 mm) under entire
■
dryer. If slope is greater than 1" (25 mm), install Extended

lower temperatures, the dryer might not shut off at the end of an
automatic sensor cycle. this can result in longer drying times.
The dryer must not be installed or stored in an area where it will
be exposed to water and/or weather.
Check codes requirements. Some codes limit, or do not permit,

sleeping quarters. Contact your local building inspector.
