3) The appliance should be inspected for
shipping damage before use and serviced
annually by a professional service per-

passageways of the appliance be kept
clean and free from excessive lint from
carpeting.

instructions. The appliance and vent should
be enclosed when installed in or passing

stalled on carpeting, tile, wood flooring or
other combustible material, because the
