Explosion Hazard
Use a new CSA International approved gas supply line.
Install a shut-off valve.
Securely tighten all gas connections.
If connected to LP, have a qualified person make sure
gas pressure does not exceed 13" (33 cm) water
column.
Examples of a qualified person include:
licensed heating personnel,
authorized gas company personnel, and
authorized service personnel.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
Gas Type
Natural gas:
This dryer is equipped for use with Natural gas. It is design-certified by CSA International for
LP (propane or butane) gases with appropriate conversion.
Your dryer must have the correct burner for the type of gas in your home. Burner
information is located on the rating plate in the door well of your dryer. If this information
does not agree with the type of gas available, contact your dealer or call the phone
numbers referenced in the "Assistance or Service" section.
LP gas conversion:
Conversion must be made by a qualified technician.
No attempt shall be made to convert the appliance from the gas specified on the model/serial
rating plate for use with a different gas without consulting your gas company.

Gas Supply Requirements

Gas supply line
Must include ¹⁄₈" NPT minimum plugged tapping accessible for test gauge connection,
immediately upstream of the gas connection to the dryer. See illustration.
¹⁄₂" IPS pipe is recommended.
³⁄₈" approved aluminum or copper tubing is acceptable for lengths under 20 ft (6.1 m) if
local codes and gas supplier permit.
If you are using Natural gas, do not use copper tubing.
Lengths over 20 ft (6.1 m) should use larger tubing and a different size adapter fitting.
If your dryer has been converted to use LP gas, ³⁄₈" LP compatible copper tubing can be
used. If the total length of the supply line is more than 20 ft (6.1 m), use larger pipe.
