IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE
WARNING
For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire, explosion, or
electric shock, or to prevent property damage, injury to persons, or death.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLATION
WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury to persons, follow all industry recommended safety procedures including the use
of long sleeved gloves and safety glasses. Failure to follow all of the safety warnings in this manual could
result in property damage, injury to persons, or death.
Exhaust/Ducting:
• Gas dryers MUST be exhausted to the outside.
Adequate ventilation must be provided to
prevent the return of gas flow into the room,
from other appliances that burn other fuels,
including open burners. Failure to follow these
instructions can result in fire or death.
• The dryer exhaust system must be exhausted
to the outside of the dwelling. If the dryer is not
exhausted outdoors, some fine lint and large
amounts of moisture will be expelled into the
laundry area. An accumulation of lint in any area of
the home can create a health and fire hazard.
• Use only rigid, semi-rigid, or flexible metal
4-inch diameter ductwork inside the dryer
cabinet or for exhausting to the outside. Use
of plastic or other combustible ductwork can
cause a fire. Punctured ductwork can cause a fire
if it collapses or becomes otherwise restricted in
use or during installation.
• Ductwork is not provided with the dryer, and
you should obtain the necessary ductwork
locally. The end cap should have hinged
dampers to prevent backdraft when the dryer is
not in use. Failure to follow these instructions can
result in fire or death.
• The exhaust duct must be 4 inches (10.2 cm)
in diameter with no obstructions. The exhaust
duct should be kept as short as possible. Make
sure to clean any old ducts before installing
your new dryer. Failure to follow these instructions
can result in fire or death.
• Fabric softeners, or similar products, should be
used as specified by the fabric softener instructions.
• Remove all objects from pockets such as lighters
and matches.
• Rigid, semi-rigid, or flexible metal ducting is
recommended for use between the dryer and
the wall. All non-rigid metal transition duct
must be UL-listed. Use of other materials for
transition ducting could affect drying time.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in fire
or death.
• DO NOT use sheet metal screws or other
fasteners which extend into the duct that
could catch lint and reduce the efficiency of
the exhaust system. Secure all joints with duct
tape. For complete details, follow the Installation
Instructions. Failure to follow these instructions can
result in fire or death.
WARNING
Fire Hazard
Failure to follow safety warnings exactly could
result in serious injury, death or property damage.
Do not install a booster fan in the exhaust duct.
Install all clothes dryers in accordance with the
installation instructions of the manufacturer of the
dryer.
WARNING
Never stop a tumble dryer before the end of the
drying cycle unless all items are quickly removed
and spread out so that the heat is dissipated.
a. For appliances with ventilation openings in
the base, that a carpet must not obstruct the
openings.
b. Exhaust air must not be discharged into a
flue which is used for exhausting fumes from
appliances burning gas or other fuels.
