Step-by-step installation
Make sure you have a qualified technician install the dryer. Step by step installation
instructions start below.
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 “
Door reversal
”.
3. Install the exhaust system as instructed in the “ Exhaust ducting guide ” section.
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
First, read through the “ Gas requirements ” section, and follow these steps.
1. Remove the protective cap from the gas pipe.
2. Apply a 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 3/4” (1.9 cm) female thread end of a flexible connector to the 3/8” (1 cm) male
threaded end on the dryer. Tighten up 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.
