, WARNING"
• Incorrect installation can cause serious accidents.
The weight of the dryer and the height of installa-
tion make this stacking procedure too risky for one
person. Two or more people are required when
installing the stacking kit. There is a risk of serious
back injury or other injuries.
Do not use the stacking kit with a gas dryer in
potentially unstable conditions such as a mobile
home. Failure to follow this warning can result in seri-
ous injury.
Place the washer on a solid, stable, level floor
capable of supporting the weight of both appli
ances. Failure to follow this warning can result in seri-
ous injury.
Do NOT stack the washer on top of the dryer.
Failure to follow this warning can result in serious
injury.
If appliances are already installed, disconnect them
from all power, water, or gas lines and from drain-
ing or venting connections. Failure to do so can
result in electrical shock, fire, explosion, or death.
0 Insert the cross rail between the washer and dryer
with the tabs on top. Push the rail back until the
tabs are on top of the feet and the screw holes line
up. Install one screw on each end of the rail to lock
it and the dryer in place.
