wWARNING:
• Incorrect installation can cause serious accidents.
• The weight of the dryer and the height of installation make this
stacking procedure too risky for one person. Two or more
people are required when installing the stacking kit. There is a
risk of serious back injury or other injuries.
• Do not use the stacking kit with a gas dryer in potentially
unstable conditions such as a mobile home. Failure to follow this
warning can result in serious injury.
• Place the washer on a solid, stable, level floor capable of
supporting the weight of both appli ances. Failure to follow this
warning can result in serious injury.
• Do NOT stack the washer on top of the dryer. Failure to follow
this warning can result in serious injury.
• If appliances are already installed, disconnect them from all
power, water, or gas lines and from draining or venting
connections. Failure to do so can result in electrical shock, fire,
explosion, or death.
