Installation and service must be performed 
by a qualified installer, service agency, or the 
gas supplier. Failure to do so can result in fire, 
explosion, or death.

connector and a new AGA-certified 
connector. Failure to do so can result in fire, 
explosion, or death.
A gas shutoff valve must be installed within 
6 ft. (1.8 m) of the dryer. Failure to do so can 
result in fire, explosion, or death.
The dryer is configured for Natural Gas when 
shipped from the factory. Make sure that the 
dryer is equipped with the correct burner 
orifice for the type of gas being used (Natural 
Gas or Liquefied Petroleum). Failure to do so 
can result in fire, explosion, or death.
If necessary, the correct orifice (for the LP 
orifice kit order part number 383EEL3002D) 
should be installed by a qualified technician 
and the change should be noted on the dryer. 
Failure to do so can result in fire, explosion,  
or death.
All connections must be in accordance with 
local codes and regulations. Failure to do so 
can result in fire, explosion, or death.
