Level dryer
Check to make sure dryer is level.
Check level first side-to-side, then front-to-
back.
If the dryer is not level, prop up the dryer
using a wood block. Use a wrench to
adjust the legs up or down and check level
again.
NOTE: It might be necessary to level the
dryer again after it has been moved into its
final position.
Make gas connection
Remove the protective red cap and make
the gas connection following the
instructions in the "Gas supply" section.
Connect vent
1. Using a 10.2 cm (4 in.) clamp, connect
vent to exhaust outlet in dryer. If
connecting to existing vent, make sure
the vent is clean. The dryer vent must fit
over the dryer exhaust outlet and inside
the exhaust hood. Make sure the vent is
secured to exhaust hood with a
10.2 cm (4 in.) clamp.
2. Move dryer into final position. Do not
crush or kink vent. Make sure dryer is
level.
3. (On gas models) Check to be sure there
are no kinks in the flexible
gas line.
Reverse door swing
You can change your door swing from a
right-side opening to a left-side opening, if
desired.
Locate the door reversing kit that was
shipped in the drum of your dryer. You will
need these parts to complete the door
reversal.
Loosen door trim
1. Place a towel or soft cloth on top of the
dryer or work space to protect the
surface.
2. Open the dryer door. Remove the 5
screws that hold the door hinge on the
front panel of the dryer. Loosen, but do
not remove, the screw with the top
keyhole opening last (2nd from the top).
3. Lift and pull forward on the door so that
the screwhead clears the keyhole.
Remove the door.
4. Lay the dryer door on a flat, protected
surface with the inside door assembly
facing up. Remove the 6 screws to
release the outer door assembly from
the inner door assembly, as indicated
below. See illustration. It is important
that you remove only the 6 indicated
screws.
5. Lift the inner door assembly off of the
outer door assembly. Set the outer door
assembly aside.
