If the new dryer is being installed into an existing exhaust system, you must
make sure:
• The exhaust system meets all local, state, and national codes.
• That a flexible plastic duct is not used.
• To Inspect and clean all lint buildup from inside the existing duct.
• The duct is not kinked or crushed.
• The exhaust hood damper opens and closes freely.
The static pressure in any exhaust system must not exceed 0.83 inches of water column, or be
less than 0.
This can be measured with the dryer running with a manometer at the point where the exhaust
duct connects to the dryer. A no-heat setting should be used. The dryer tumbler should be
empty and the lint filter clean.
Important to InStallEr
Please read the following instructions carefully before installing the dryer. These instructions should be kept
for future reference.
Remove the door from all discarded appliances to avoid the danger of a child suffocating.
Warning
locatIon conSIDEratIonS
Locate the dryer where there is enough space at the front for loading the dryer, and enough space behind
for the exhaust system. This dryer is factory-ready for rear exhaust. To exhaust out the bottom or the right
or the left (electric model only), use the accessory exhaust kit (sold separately). Instructions are included
with the kit. It's important to make sure the room has enough fresh air. The dryer must be located where
there is no air-flow obstruction.
On gas dryers, adequate clearance as noted on the data plate must be maintained to ensure adequate air
for combustion and proper dryer operation.
Do not install or store the dryer in an area where it will be exposed to water and/or weather. Keep the dryer
area clear of combustible materials, casoline, and other flammable vapors and liquids. A dryer produces
combustible lint. The area around the dryer should be kept lint free.
alcoVE or cloSEt InStallatIon
You must exhaust the dryer to the outside to reduce the risk of fire when you install the dryer in alcove
or closet.
Warning
• No other fuel-burning appliance should be installed in the same closet as the dryer.
• WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, you must exhaust the dryer to the outdoors.
See Exhaust information section.
• Minimum clearances between the dryer and adjacent walls or other surfaces are:
2" in front, 17" on top, 1" on either side, and 5" in the back.
• The closet front must have two unobstructed air openings for a combined minimum total area of 72 in²
with 3" minimum clearance on the top and bottom. A louvered door with equivalent space clearance is
acceptable.
