STANDARD REAR EXHAUST

We recommend that you install your

dryer before installing your washer. This

will permit direct access for easier exhaust

connection.
Slide the end of the exhaust duct on the back

of the dryer and secure with duct tape or

a hose clamp.

NOTE: We strongly recommend using rigid metal

exhaust duct.

For straight-line installation, connect the dryer

exhaust to the wall, using duct tape.

RECOMMENDED CONFIGURATION

TO MINIMIzE EXHAUST BLOCKAGE
