12 INSTALLATION
Choosing the Proper
Location
WARNING
• Read all installation instructions completely
before installing and operating the appliance. It
is important that you review this entire manual
before installing and using the appliance.
Detailed instructions concerning electrical
connections and additional requirements are
provided on the following pages.
Exhaust
• The location must allow for proper exhaust
installation. A gas dryer must be exhausted to
the outdoors.
Electricity
Use an individual, grounded electrical outlet
located within 2 ft. (61 cm) of either side of the
appliance.
WARNING
• Do not install or store the appliance in an area
where it will be exposed to water and/or
weather.
NOTE
• Check code requirements that limit, or do not
permit, installation of the dryer in garages,
mobile homes or sleeping quarters. If you have
questions, contact your local building inspector.
Flooring
To avoid noise and vibration, the appliance must
be installed and leveled on a solidly constructed
floor with a maximum slope of 1 inch (2.5 cm). If
required, adjust the leveling legs to compensate
for the unevenness of the floor.
NOTE
• A sturdy floor is needed to support the total
appliance weight when loaded. The combined
weight of additional appliances should also be
considered.
• Clothes may not tumble properly, and automatic
sensor cycles may not operate correctly if the
appliance is not level.
• For garage installation, you will need to place the
appliance at least 18 inches (45.7 cm) above the
floor. The standard pedestal height is 15 inches
(38 cm). You will need 18 inches (45.7 cm) from
the garage floor to the bottom of the appliance.
Ambient Temperature
Install the appliance in an area where the
temperature is over 45 ℉ (7 ℃).
If the temperature around the appliance is too low,
the appliance might not shut off at the end of an
automatic cycle. This can result in longer drying
times.
