U.S. MODELS:
IMPORTANT – All U.S. models are designed for a 3-WIRE SYSTEM CONNECTION. The dryer frame is
grounded to the neutral conductor at the terminal block. A 4-WIRE SYSTEM CONNECTION is required for
new or remodeled construction, mobile homes, or if local codes do not permit grounding through neutral.
If you use the 4-wire system, you cannot ground the dryer frame to the neutral conductor at the terminal
block.
Refer to the following instructions for 3- and 4-WIRE SYSTEM CONNECTIONS:
Remove the terminal block cover plate. Insert the power cord with a UL-listed strain relief through the hole
provided in the cabinet near the terminal block.
A strain relief must be used. Do not loosen the nuts already installed on the terminal block. Be sure they are
tight. Use a 3/8" (1 cm) deep well socket.
9. To ensure that the dryer provides optimal drying performance, it must
be level. To level the dryer, follow the lettered steps below:
a. Using a level, check if the dryer is level side to side and then front
to back.
b. If the dryer is not level, adjust the leveling feet on the bottom of
the dryer until the washer is level side to side and back to front.
Turning the feet clockwise retracts the feet. Turning the feet
clockwise loosens and extends them.
To set the dryer to the same height as the washer, fully
retract the leveling feet by turning them counterclockwise,
then loosen the feet by turning them clockwise. Once
the dryer is the same height as the washer, follow the
directions above to level the dryer.
Adjust the leveling feet only as much as necessary to level the dryer. Extending the leveling
feet more than necessary can cause the dryer to vibrate.
10. Make sure all gas connections (on gas models), exhaust, and electrical connections are complete. Plug
in your dryer, and then check its operation by using the checklist below.
11. For GAS MODELS ONLY - DV231AE*:
The burner may not ignite initially due to air in the gas line. Allowing your dryer to operate on a heat
setting will purge the line. If the gas does not ignite within 5 minutes, turn your dryer off and wait
5 minutes. Be sure the gas supply to your dryer has been turned on. To confirm gas ignition, check the
exhaust for heat.
FINAL INSTALLATION CHECKLIST
 The dryer is plugged into an electrical outlet and is properly grounded.
 The exhaust ductwork is hooked up and joints are taped.
 You have used rigid or stiff-walled flexible metal duct material, not plastic flexible duct.
 The dryer is leveled and is sitting firmly on the fl oor.
 For gas models: The gas is turned on and there are no gas leaks.
 Start your dryer to confirm that it runs, heats, and shuts off.
