Amana NGD4705EW Quick Setup Guide

Install exhaust hood and use caulking compound to seal 

exterior wall opening around exhaust hood.

A combination of pipe fittings must be used to connect dryer 

to existing gas line. A recommended connection is shown. 

Your connection may be different, according to supply line 

type, size, and location.

A. 3/8" flexible gas connector

B. 3/8" dryer pipe 

C. 3/8" to 3/8" pipe elbow

D. 3/8" pipe-to-flare adapter fitting

Open shut-off valve in supply line; valve is open when handle 

is parallel to gas pipe. Then, test all connections by brushing 

on an approved noncorrosive leak-detection solution. 

Bubbles will show a leak. Correct any leaks found.

Vent must fit over the exhaust hood. Secure vent to exhaust 

hood with 4" (102 mm) clamp. Run vent to dryer location 

using straightest path possible. Avoid 90° turns. Use clamps 

to seal all joints. Do not use duct tape, screws, or other 

fastening devices that extend into interior of vent to secure 

vent, because they can catch lint.

Remove red cap from gas pipe. Using a wrench to tighten, 

connect gas supply to dryer. Use pipe-joint compound  

on threads of all non-flared male fittings. If flexible metal  

tubing is used, be sure there are no kinks.

NOTE: For LP gas connections, you must use pipe-joint 

compound resistant to action of LP gas. Do not use
