UNPACKING

1. Using the four shipping carton corner posts (two
on each side), carefully lay the dryer on its left
side and remove foam shipping base.
To prevent damage, do not use the
control panel as a means to pick up or move the dryer.
2. Return the dryer to an upright position.

REVERSING DOOR SWING

Your dryer is designed so the door swing may be
reversed at any time without additional parts.
Conversion is accomplished by transferring hinges to
the opposite side of the cabinet.
To change the direction of the door opening:
1. Open the dryer door. Remove the four hinge hole
plugs from the left side of the door opening. Place
nearby for future installation. NOTE: You may need
a plastic knife to help pull out the plugs. Be careful
not to scratch the paint.
2. Remove the four screws that secure the door hinges
to the dryer front panel. NOTE: Remove one screw
from each of the two hinges first. Hold the door
firmly before removing the last two screws.
3. Rotate the door 180° and reinstall the door hinges
to the dryer front panel with the four screws.
4. Install the four hinge hole plugs in the open screw
holes on the right side of the door opening.

ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION

ELECTRIC Dryers

The
requirements for proper and safe electrical
installation of your dryer. Failure to follow these
instructions can create electrical shock and/or a
fire hazard.
This appliance MUST be properly grounded.
Electrical shock can result if the dryer is not properly
grounded. Follow the instructions in this manual for
proper grounding.
Do not use an extension cord with this dryer.
Some extension cords are not designed to withstand
the amounts of electrical current this dryer utilizes and
can melt, creating electrical shock and/or fire hazard.
Locate the dryer within reach of the receptacle for the
length power cord to be purchased, allowing some slack
in the cord. Refer to the pre-installation requirements in
this manual for the proper power cord to be purchased.
A U.L. approved strain relief must be installed
onto power cord. If the strain relief is not attached, the
cord can be pulled out of the dryer and can be cut by
any movement of the cord, resulting in electrical shock.
Do not use an aluminum wired receptacle with
a copper wired power cord and plug (or vice versa).
A chemical reaction occurs between copper and
aluminum and can cause electrical shorts. The proper
wiring and receptacle is a copper wired power cord
with a copper wired receptacle.
NOTE: Dryers operating on 208 volt power supply will
have longer drying times than operating on 240 volt
power supply.
