Gas Supply

Before installation, check that the local gas distribution conditions,
nature of gas and pressure, and the adjustment of the appliance
are compatible. Burner information will be found on the model/
serial rating plate in the door recess of the dryer. If this information
does not agree with the type of gas available, see your dealer.
Natural Gas:
This dryer is factory adjusted for use with NATURAL GAS (G20),
and no further adjustment should be required at installation.
L.P. Gas:
This dryer is also certified for use with L.P. (propane or butane)
gases with appropriate conversion. No attempt shall be made to
convert the appliance from the gas specified on the model/serial
rating plate for use with a different gas without consulting the
serving gas supplier.
Conversion must be done by a competent service technician. Gas
conversion kit (European Country), part number W10233219,

Supply line requirements:
Provide a rigid gas supply line to the washer/dryer location. It
should be minimum 12.5 mm (1/2") ID. When acceptable to the
gas supplier and local codes, 10 mm (3/8") ID rigid supply line
may be used for lengths under 6.1 m (20'). Pipe-joint compounds
resistant to the action of L.P. gas must be used.
NOTE: For installation in Australia and New Zealand, refer to
AS/NZS 5601 for pipe sizing details. All piping is to be in
accordance with AS/NZS 5601.1 – Gas Installations.
Gas connection to the dryer itself should be made by means
of a flexible gas hose suitable for the appliance and gas category
in accordance with national installation regulations. If in doubt,
contact the gas supplier. It should be minimum 10 mm (3/8") ID.
A means of restraint should be used between the washer/dryer
and the wall to avoid straining of the rigid gas supply when the
washer/dryer is moved. An appropriate length of chain and a wall
hook is recommended.
The dryer gas inlet connection is a 3/8" NPT thread. An adapter is
supplied for conversion to standard ISO.228-1 thread (3/8" BSP).
Check for leaks by using an approved noncorrosive leak-detection
solution. Bubbles will show a leak. Correct any leak found. A
pressure measurement tapping is provided on the gas valve within
the dryer, accessible after removal of the lower front panel.
The dryer must be disconnected from the gas supply piping
system during any pressure testing of that system.
