WARNING

• To reduce the risk of severe injury or death, follow all installation instructions.
• Clothes dryer installation must be performed by a qualified installer.
• Install the clothes dryer according to these instructions and in accordance

with local codes.

• This dryer must be exhausted to the outdoors.
• Use only 4” rigid metal ducting for exhausting the clothes dryer to the

outdoors.

• Do not install or store this appliance in any location where it could be

exposed to water and or weather.

• Save these instructions. (Installers: Be sure to leave these instructions with

If flexible metal (semi-rigid or foil-type) duct is installed, it must be UL listed

Dryer To House Vent" on page 5 of this manual. Flexible venting materials

are known to collapse, be easily crushed, and trap lint. These conditions will

obstruct dryer airflow and increase the risk of fire.
