Explosion Hazard
Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as
gasoline, away from dryer.
Place dryer at least 18 inches (46 cm) above the
floor for a garage installation.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion,
or fire.
You will need
• A location that allows for proper exhaust installation. A gas
dryer must be exhausted to the outdoors. See "Venting
Requirements."
• A grounded electrical outlet located within 2 ft (61 cm) of
either side of the dryer. See "Electrical Requirements."
• A sturdy floor to support the total dryer weight of 200 Ibs
(99.7 kg). The combined weight of a companion appliance
should also be considered.
• A level floor with a maximum slope of 1 in. (2.5 cm) under
entire dryer. If slope is greater than 1 in. (2.5 cm), install
Extended Dryer Feet Kit, Part Number 279810. Clothes may
not tumble properly and automatic sensor cycles may not
operate correctly if dryer is not level.
• For a garage installation, you will need to place the dryer at
least 18 in. (46 cm) above the floor. If using a pedestal, you
will need an additional 6 in. (15.24 cm).
Do not operate your dryer at temperatures below 45°F (7°C). At
lower temperatures, the dryer might not shut off at the end of an
automatic cycle. This can result in longer drying times.
The dryer must not be installed or stored in an area where it will
be exposed to water and/or weather.
Check code requirements. Some codes limit, or do not permit,
installation of the dryer in garages, closets, mobile homes, or
sleeping quarters. Contact your local building inspector.
NOTE: No other fuel-burning appliance can be installed in the
same closet as a dryer.
Installation clearances
• The location must be large enough to fully open the dryer
door.
• Additional spacing should be considered for ease of
installation and servicing.
• Additional clearances might be required for wall, door and
floor moldings.
• Additional spacing of 1 in. (2.5 cm) on all sides of the dryer is
recommended to reduce noise transfer.
• Companion appliance spacing should also be considered.
