CONNECT DRYER
TO EXHAUST
SYSTEM
Secure all joints with clamps or duct
tape. DO NOT use sheet metal
screws or other fastening means
which extend into the duct to attach
exhaust pipe joints. They could
catch lint and reduce the efficiency
of the exhaust system.
IMPORTANT: Keep exhaust duct
as short as possible.
Be sure old ducts are clean before
installing your new dryer.
To prevent backdraft when dryer is
not in operation, outer end of
exhaust pipe must have a weather
hood with hinged dampers (obtain
locally).
Weather hood should be installed at
least 12" (30.5 cm) above the
ground. Higher clearances may be
necessary in areas where heavy
snowfall can occur.
No extra system length considera-
tion is necessary when exhausting
through the roof. Use MAXIMUM
EXHAUST LENGTH table to
calculate system length. Use a roof
cap that provides air flow equal to
weather hood.
Exhaust Directions
Dryer can be exhausted to the out-
doors through the back, left, right or
bottom of the dryer.
Dryer is shipped from factory ready
for rear exhaust. No kits required.
To exhaust dryer through sides or
bottom, install a DK1 Sales
Accessory (Directional Exhaust Kit
528P3). Available as optional equip-
ment at extra cost.
Exhaust System Materials
Exhaust duct must be four inches
(10.2 cm)in diameter without
obstructions. Rigid metal duct is
recommended. Non-combustible
semi-rigid flexible metal duct is
acceptable.
DO NOT use plastic pipe, foil pipe,
or flexible plastic pipe, because it
contributes to poor drying perform-
ance and collects lint, which can
lead to a fire hazard. To identify
flexible foil or plastic duct, pinch the
coils of the duct between your fin-
gers. If the coils can be brought
together, do not use the duct.

Important Safety Information
About Ground Wires
Unthe event of an eUectricaUshort
circuit, a ground wire reduces the
risk of eUectric shock by providing
an escape wire for the eUectric
current.
Standard accepted coUorcoding for
ground wires is green or green
with a yettow stripe.
Grounding wires and wires coUored
Hke grounding wires are NOT to be
used as current carrying conductors.
A WARNING I
To reduce the risk of fire, the
dryer MUST be exhausted to
the outdoors. DO NOT exhaust
dryer air into a window well,
gas vent, chimney or enclosed,
unventilated area, such as an
attic, wall, ceiling, crawl space
under a building or concealed
space of a building.
WARNING I
To reduce the risk of fire, DO
NOT use plastic pipe, foil pipe,
or flexible plastic pipe to exhaust
the dryer. Never install flexible
duct in concealed spaces, such
as a wall or ceiling.
A WARNING I
To avoid risk of personal injury
or death:
• Do not allow children to play
on or in the appliance. Close
supervision of children is
necessary when the appli-
ance is used near children.
Grounding Instructions
This dryer must be connected to a grounded metal, permanent wiring system,
or an equipment-grounding conductor must be run with the circuit conductors
and connected to the equipment-grounding terminal or lead on the dryer.
• Power cord (pigtail) is not supplied with electric dryer. Type of pigtail and
gauge of wire must conform to local codes and instructions.
Method of wiring dryer is optional and subject to local code requirements.
• Connect dryer to power supply with MAXIMUM RATED VOLTAGE listed on
the nameplate.
• Use copper wire only. Shorter than 15' (4.5 m) use 10 A.W.G. Longer than
15' (4.5 m) use 8 A.W.G.
I A WARNING I
To avoid risk of personal injury or death due to electrical shock:
• Observe all local codes and
ordinances.
• Disconnect electrical power to
unit before servicing.
• Ground appliance properly.
• Check with a qualified electrician
if you are not sure this appliance
is properly grounded.
• DO NOT ground to gas line.
• DO NOT ground to cold water
pipe if pipe is interrupted by
plastic, non-metallic gaskets or
other insulating (non-conducting)
materials.
• DO NOT modify plug on power
cord. If plug does not fit electri-
cal outlet, have proper outlet
installed by qualified electrician.
• DO NOT have a fuse in the neu-
tral or ground circuit. A fuse in
the neutral or ground circuit
could result in an electrical
shock.
• DO NOT use an extension cord
with this appliance.
• DO NOT use an adapter plug
with this appliance.
• DO NOT pinch power cord.
I A WARNING I
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, serious injury or death, all wiring
and grounding must conform with the latest edition of the National Electric
Code, ANSl/NFPA 70, or the Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1, and
such local regulations as might apply. It is the customer's responsibility to
have the wiring and fuses checked by a qualified electrician to make sure
your home has adequate electrical power to operate the dryer.
A WARNING I
To avoid injury or death due to
suffocation, remove door to
dryer compartment before
appliance is removed from
service or discarded.

Exhaust
Description
Use dimensions shown in manuaU to determine space needed for installation,
PUacedryer on a solid floor in an area with an adequate air suppUy,A cbset door
must have a suppUyair vent of 80 sq, in, (517 sq, cm) minimum,
Leveling bgs can be adjusted from inside the dryer with a X" driver, AHfour bgs
must rest firmUyon the floor so the weight of the dryer is evenly distributed, The
dryer must not rock,
Dryer must not be installed or stored in an area where it will be exposed to water
and/or weather,
Dryer needs a 3- or 4-wire 120/240 volt, 30 amp, 60 hertz, 1 phase electrical supply,
Refer to serial plate for specific requirements, Wiring diagram is located in control
hood,
Use rigid or semi-rigid duct and exhaust the dryer to the outside by the shortest
route possible, Failure to exhaust dryer properly will void warranty,
Dryer exhaust duct must be secured to the mobile home structure, Dryer exhaust
MUST NOT terminate under the mobile home,
o Exhaust duct must not be connected to any other duct, vent or chimney,
o Venting materials are not supplied with the dryer (obtain locally), Do not use plas-
tic or thin foil flexible ducting,
Static pressure in the dryer's exhaust duct should be no greater than ,6 inches
(1,5 cm), Check with dryer running and no load, This can be measured with a
manometer placed on the exhaust duct approximately two feet (61 cm) from the
dryer,
For the best exhaust system:
* Locate dryer so exhaust duct is as short as possible,
o Verify old ducts are cleaned before installing new dryer,
o Use 4 inch (10,2 cm) diameter rigid or flexible metal duct,
Use duct tape on all joints,
Use as few elbows as possible,
