RECOMMENDED GROUNDING METHOD
DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, REMOVE
THE POWER SUPPLY CORD GROUND PRONG.
For your personal safety, this appliance must be
grounded. This appliance is equipped with a power
supply cord having a 3-prong grounding plug.
To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord must be
plugged into a mating 3-prong grounding type wall
receptacle, grounded in accordance with the National
Electrical Code ANSIINFPA 70-latest edition. and
all local codes and ordinances If a mating wall
receptacle is not available, it is the personal
responsibility and obligation of the customer to have a
properly grounded 3-prong wall receptacle installed
by a qualified electrician. (See Figure 4).
For added personal safety, using the clamp and green
colored copper wire furnished, connect this separate
ground wire (#18 minimum) from the external ground
connector on the back of the appliance to a grounded
cold water pipe.

TEMPORARY GROUNDING METHOD
DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, REMOVE
THE POWER SUPPLY CORD GROUND PRONG.
THIS, HOWEVER,
IS
NOT RECOMMENDED.
If this is done, you must connect a separate copper
ground wire (No. 18 minimum) to a grounded cold water
pipe* by means of a clamp and then to the external
ground connector screw.(See Figure 5). Do not ground
to a gas supply or hot water pipe. Do not connect to
electrical supply until appliance is permanently
grounded.
If changing and properly grounding the wall receptacle is
impossible and where local codes permit (consult your
electrical inspector), a temporary adaptor may be
plugged into the existing 2-prong wall receptacle to mate
with the 3-prong power supply cord.
*Grounded cold water
pipe must have metal
continuity to electrical
ground and not be
interrupted by plastic,
rubber or electrically
insulating connectors
(including water meter
or pump) without adding
a jumper wire at
these connections.
INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
1.
Open dryer door and remove the shipping tape that
holds the drum to the cabinet.
2. Remove all literature and installation parts from the
dryer drum.
3. Block up the front of the appliance about four inches
and install leveling feet in the front corners. These
feet should extend approximately one inch. Remove
the block and repeat the proceedure at rear of
appliance.
4. Refer to Exhaust System Requirements in these
instructions.
5. Move the appliance to desired location. Observe the
minimum clearance to sides and rear as specified
on the label found on back panel of the dryer.

8. Level the appliance from side to side and from front
to rear by adjusting the leveling feet. A small spirit
level placed on the dryer top is recommended for
leveling.
7. Connect the appliance to the gas supply. Make sure
the shutoff valve located behind the toe plate is open
(See Figure 7) and open shutoff valves in the supply
line. Test all gas connections for leaks, using a brush
and soapy water solution. (Liquid detergent works
very well also.) Bubbles will indicate a loose
connection.
