WARNING
• Use only natural or LP (liquid propane)
gases.
• The installation must be conformed
with local codes, or in the absence of
local codes, with the national fuel gas
code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, latest
revision(for the UNITED STATES), or
with the natural gas and propane
installation code, CSA B149.1(for
Canada).
• Gas dryers are equipped with a burner
vent for use with natural gas. If you
plan to use your dryer with LP (liquid
propane) gas, it must be converted
for safe and proper performance by
a qualified service technician. (LNG
models only)
You must check the burner of your
model and use the proper LP Kit
accordingly. To check the detail
information of the burner, open the
door and check the rating label location
on the door frame.

• A 1/2" (1.27 cm) gas supply line is
recommended and must be reduced to
connect to the 3/8" (1 cm) gas line on
your dryer. The National Fuel Gas Code
requires that an accessible, approved
manual gas shut-off valve be installed
within 6" of your dryer.

garages must be raised 18 inches
(46 cm) above the floor.

• Additionally, a 1/8" (0.3 cm) N.P.T.
(National Pipe Thread) plugged tapping,
accessible for test gauge connection,
must be installed immediately upstream
of your dryer's gas supply connection.
• Your dryer must be disconnected from
the gas supply pipe system during any
pressure testing of the system.
• Do not reuse old flexible metal gas
lines. Flexible gas lines must be
designed and certified by the standard
for connectors for Gas Appliances, ANSI
Z21.24 • CSA 6.10.
NOTE
• Your dryer uses an automatic ignition
system to ignite the burner. There is no
constant burning pilot.
• Any pipe joint compound used must be
resistant to the action of any liquefied
petroleum gas.
• As a courtesy, most local gas utilities
will inspect a gas appliance installation.
