ALCOVE OR CLOSET
When the stacked washer/dryer is to be installedin an alcove area or a closet, clearance shouldbe provided around the unit for an adequate airsupply and for ease of installation and servicing.
An appliance installed in a closet shall have noother fuel burning appliance installed in thesame closet, such as gas furnace, water heateror space heater, etc.
The dryer must be exhausted to the outside tominimize excessive lint accumulation and to
maintain good drying. We recommend allow-ance for more clearance than the minimum
installation clearances as shown.

--II-- SIDE t1/2" VIEW
Exhaust the dryer using metal exhaustingmaterial or exhaust kit (see your authorized
Maytag dealer), and locate in an area thatprovides adequate make-up air. The exhaustduct may not terminate beneath the mobile home.
MAKE=UP AiR
For proper operation of the dryer unit it is impor-tant to make sure the location has adequate
make=up air. This is especially important in anyconfined area such as bathroom or closet. There
must be at least two 36 square inch unobstructedopenings for intake air. This can be a Iouvereddoor or other equivalent opening.
On gas dryer units in particular, adequate clear-ance as noted on the dryer minimum clearancelabel should be maintained to insure enough airfor combustion and the proper operation of thedryer. The area where located must notobstruct the flow of combustion or ventilating
air. When installing a Maytag Stacked Washer/Dryer the following minimum clearances tocombustible surfaces must be maintained.
Clearance to wall, sides - 0 inches, top - 6 inches,front - 1/2 inch to washer, rear - 0 inches with anoutside exhaust, 4 inches with an inside exhaust
(not recommended). See Exhausting section andInstallation Accessories for exhaust kits.
Each opening area must have a minimum of 36
square inches. These openings must not beobstructed. (Louvered door with equivalent airopening is acceptable.)
MOBILE HOME iNSTALLATiON
SERVICE ACCESSLocation should allow access to the front of the
unit for washer and dryer service. Access must
also be available to two screws at the top frontcorners of the dryer front panel (on the top).
Installation of Maytag dryers certified by theAmerican Gas Association and bearing a label
stating they are suitable for installation in mobilehomes, must conform to the Manufactured
Home Construction and Safety Standard Title 24CFR, Part 32-80.
When installing this appliance in a mobile home,
provisions for anchoring the dryer should bemade. An anchor bracket kit is available to fas-
ten dryer stand to the floor. Instructions forinstalling the anchor brackets are contained ineach kit. (See your authorized Maytag dealer.)
All mobile home installations must be exhaustedto the outside with the exhaust duct termination
securely fastened to the mobile home structure,using materials that will not support combustion.
The free air flow rate is approximately 180 cubicfeet per minute. The vent system carries lint andmoisture away and to the outside. The length ofthe venting and the number of elbows affect theair flow rate and the efficiency of the exhaust system.
DO NOT EXHAUST DRYER INTO ANY WALL,CEIMNG, CRAWL SPACE OR A CONCEALED
SPACE OF A BUiLDiNG, VENT CONNECTION,GAS VENT OR CHMNEY. THIS COULD
CREATE A FIRE HAZARD FROM UNTEXPELLED BY THE DRYER. FOR THE SAME

tt is recommended that the dryer be exhausted
to the outside using 4 inch rigid or flexible metaUducting.
When located in a bedroom, bathroom or cUoset,
the dryer must be exhausted to the outside.
The stacked washer/dryer can only be exhaust°ed out the back. A 4 inch vent shouUd be
installed to accept the exhaust from the dryer.
To permit sufficient air circulation under theexhaust hood, there shouUd be no less than a 12inch cUearance between the bottom of the
exhaust hood and the ground. When possiblethe exhaust hood shouUd not exhaust directlyinto a window weft. DO NOT terminate exhaust
under a building.
NOTE: Where the exhaust hood is to be
installed through masonry, a special masonrysaw is necessary to cut the hole.
tnstall the exhaust hood and secure with screws
to the outside waft and seal with caulking compound.
DIRECT EXHAUST
An exhaust hood positioned to line up with thedryer exhaust pipe can be installed directlythrough an outside wall. This would be theshortest and most direct exhaust method.
To exhaust up, route standard 4 inch diameterducting up the recess in the cabinet back usingthe furnished retaining strap and screws to getnearly flush to wall installation. To exhaust to the
side or down, install the furnished 4 inch longduct with four"S" clips to the inner dryer exhaust,then use standard 4 inch ducting. This will posi-tion the dryer about 4ol/2 inches away from thewall. Flush-to-wall side exhausting may be done
by going above the dryer before going sideways.
When exhausting down, wallboard can beremoved from the wall to get the dryer closer tothe wall by placing the exhaust pipe betweenstuds. Check toccata codes for requiredexhaust cmearances.
Install ductwork from the dryer to exhaust hood.All joints must be made so exhaust end of onepipe is inside the intake end of next pipe. Onflexible metal ductwork, all joints should be
secured with a clamp. DO NOT use sheet metalscrews when assembling rigid ducting. Jointsshould be taped.

FLEXIBLE DUCTWORK
Flexible metal ductwork should not exceed 34
feet of straight 4 inch ducting. The exhaust hoodis equivalent to 8 feet of duct and each 90 ° bend
is equivalent to 8 feet. As an example, if anexhaust hood is used and two 90 ° bends, the
maximum straight run would be 10 feet.
NOTE: if the radius of a bend with 4 inch duct is
12 inches or greater, the bend can be considered
a straight run. No more than three 90 ° bendsshould be used in any run with an exhaust hood.
tf flexible metal exhaust ducting is used, the shortextension supplied with this machine can besecured to the dryer exhaust with the clips and
the flexible metal duct can be clamped to theshort extension.

NOTE: It is not permissible to convert a dryer inCanada to 208 volts. A 208 volt model is notavailable for Canada.
WATER SUPPLY AND DRAIN
WATER SUPPLY
The water supply to the washer unit should becapable of providing both adequate waterpressure and water temperature. The pressureshould fall within the range of 20 pounds per
square inch to 120 pounds per square inchwhen the washer is filling. Note that this is flowpressure and not static pressure. Low waterpressure will result in slow fill and could result in
a water valve sticking open after a fill.
The recommended temperature of the hot wateras delivered to the washer should be 140 ° R
Warm water temperature is a result of the mix ofthe hot and cold water supplies. The final
temperature is dependent on both the pressureand the temperatures of the hot and coldsupplies. The desired temperature for warm isbetween 100 ° R and 105 ° R
DRAIN FACILITIES
The drain must be capable of accepting a flow
rate of approximately 20 gallons per minute. Aninside diameter of at least 1 1/2 inches is required.

if the faucets and/or drain is located to either
side of the stacked washer/dryer, openings are
located in the dryer stand uprights to allowhoses and power cords to be passed through.This is to allow instaJlation against the back wail.(This is dependent on venting used.)
GAS CONNECTION
Gas operated dryers are equipped with a burnerorifice for operation on NATURAL GAS. if the
dryer is to be operated on LP GAS, it must beconverted correctly for safety and properperformance. Conversion kits from NATURAL toLPG, or LPG to NATURAL are available through
your local Maytag dealer, if other conversionsare required, check with IocaJ gas utility forspecific information concerning conversionrequirement. NOTE: The conversion shouldalways be performed by a qualified servicetechnician.
NOTE: if the dryer is to be converted inCanada, the conversion shall be carried out in
accordance with the requirements of theprovincial authorities having jurisdiction and in
accordance with the requirements of the CAN-B149.1 and CAN1-B149.2 instaJlation code.
A 1/2 inch gas supply line is recommended andmust be reduced to connect to the 3/8 inch gasline on the dryer.
iMPORTANT NOTE: When installing the gasline, route it so that it will not interfere with the
washer once the washer is pushed back intoposition. It is important to make sure the gas finedoes not come into contact with either the
washer drain hose or any part of the washer.
NOTE: A 3/8 inch x 1 inch pipe nipple is includ-ed to adapt valve connection from a 3/8 inchfemale to a 3/8 inch male t.RS. connection.
