Location Requirements

You will need
A location that allows for proper exhaust installation.
See "Venting Requirements."
A separate 30-amp circuit.
If you are using a power supply cord, a grounded electrical
outlet located within 2 ft. (610 mm) of either side of the dryer.
See "Electrical Requirements."
A sturdy floor to support the total dryer weight of 200 lbs
(90.7 kg). The combined weight of a companion appliance
should also be considered.
A level floor with a maximum slope of 1" (25 mm) under entire
dryer. If slope is greater than 1" (25 mm), 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" (460 mm) above the floor. If using a pedestal, you will need
18" (460 mm) to the bottom of the dryer.
Steam models only: Cold water faucets located within
4 ft. (1.2 m) of dryer, and water pressure of 20-100 psi
(137.9-689.6 kPa). Cold water supply may come from
washer using "Y" connector provided.
Do not operate your dryer at temperatures below 45ºF (7ºC).
At lower temperatures, the dryer might not shut off at the end
of an automatic sensor 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.
