COUPLINGS — this causes twisting and straining of the flexible gas connector, which may cause premature failure of the connector. A sharp bend in the flexible gas connector at the couplings causes straining and twisting, which may result in premature failure of the coupling. Placing the couplings too close together causes double bends that may result in fatigue failure of the fittings. 21.All connections must be wrench-tightened. Open the shutoff valve in the gas supply line. 23.Determine the length of exhaust vent that is needed to connect the dryer to the exhaust hood. (See “Exhaust requirements,” Panels B and C.) 22.Use a brush and liquid detergent to test all gas connections for leaks. Bubbles around connections will indicate a leak. If a leak appears, shut off gas valve controls and adjust connections. Then check connections again. 24.Connect exhaust vent to washer/dryer and then to the exhaust hood.

Use the straightest path possible to

avoid 90° turns.

Use clamp to seal all joints in the

exhaust system.

Use caulking compound to seal

exterior wall opening around exhaust hood.

25.Check Electrical

Requirements. Be Sure You Have

Correct Electrical Supply And

Recommended Ground Method.

Check the Installation Instructions to see that you have completed each step. Complete any missed steps before you continue. 26.Check that all parts are now installed. (See parts list, Panel C.) If there is an extra part, go back through steps to see which step was skipped. 27.Check that you removed all the shipping pieces including the shipping strap with its 2 cotterpins and plug. Dispose of all materials in proper manner. If you do not remove the shipping strap, your washer/dryer may “walk” away from its location. 28.Check that you have all of your tools. 29.Turn on water faucets and check for leaks. Tighten couplings if there is leaking. Do Not overtighten; this could cause damage to faucet. 30.Replace access panel. Be sure to tighten the three Phillips-head screws at the top of the access panel. Replace the bumper under the center screw. 31.Read the Use and Care Guide to fully understand your new washer/dryer. Open dryer door. Check to be sure lint screen is in its proper position. Wipe out drum. 32.Plug power supply cord into grounded outlet. Now start the washer and allow it to complete the regular cycle. 33.Start dryer to remove air from the gas supply line.
