WARNING
To reduce the risk of gas leaks, fire or explosion:
• The dryer must be connected to the type of gas
as shown on nameplate located in the door re-
cess.
• Use a new flexible stainless steel connector.
• Use pipe joint compound insoluble in L.P. (Lique-
fied Petroleum) Gas, or Teflon tape, on all pipe
threads.
• Purge air and sediment from gas supply line be-
fore connecting it to the dryer. Before tightening
the connection, purge remaining air from gas line
to dryer until odor of gas is detected. This step is
required to prevent gas valve contamination.
• Do not use an open flame to check for gas leaks.
Use a non-corrosive leak detection fluid.
• Any disassembly requiring the use of tools must
be performed by a suitably qualified service per-
son.
