NOTE: Do not connect the dryer to an LP gas line without first converting the
dryer with a conversion kit. An LP conversion kit must be installed by a qualified
technician.
NOTE: Apply a pipe-joint compound that that is resistant to the action of LP gas to
all males threads. Do not use plumber’s tape.
1. Turn the gas supply off by moving the shutoff valve to the closed position.
