Installation
Step-by-step installation
Make sure you have a qualified technician install the dryer. Step by step installation instructions start
below.
• Do not remove the protective film on the door before completing the product installation. If you remove
the protective film before the installation is complete, the door may get scratched or damaged during
installation.
• Make sure the installation location allows enough space for the dryer door to be fully open.
STEP 1 Install the exhaust system
1. Select a location and move the dryer to the site. For easy access, we recommend you install the dryer in
the same location as your washer.
2. To change the door direction, see "Switching the door position" on page 37.
3. Install the exhaust system as instructed in the "Exhaust ducting guide" section.
CAUTION
Before installing your dryer, remove the packing in the duct.
NOTE
• To move the dryer easily, lay two of the carton cushions from the packaging on the floor. Tip the dryer
on its side so it lies across both cushion-tops. Push the dryer so that it is near its final location, and then
set the dryer upright.
• Secure room around the dryer to facilitate ducting and wiring.
STEP 2 Connect the gas line (for gas models)
Before connecting the gas line, make sure you have read the "Gas requirements (Not applicable to ventless
(heat pump) models)" section on page 21.
1. Remove the protective cap from the gas pipe.
2. Apply an LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas)-safe compound or 1.5 wraps of Teflon tape to all threaded
connections.
3. Connect the gas supply to the dryer. An additional fitting is required to connect the
thread end of a flexible connector to the
fitting over all threads.
4. Turn on the gas supply, and check for any leaks using a soap solution. If a leak is found, tighten the
connections and try again. Do not use an open flame to check for gas leaks.
