fire, combustion, and gas accumulation, the dryer
must be vented to the outdoors. Please follow the
following instructions (and all others in this
manual) very carefully.
• Do not use thin plastic or foil ducting.
• Use 4" (10.2 cm) diameter rigid or flexible metal
duct (note: venting materials are not supplied with
the dryer, and you should obtain the venting
materials necessary for proper installation)
• Position the dryer so that the exhaust duct is as
short as possible
• Clean old ducts before installing this dryer
• The male end of each section of exhaust duct must
point away from the dryer
• Use as few elbow joints as possible
• Use duct tape on all duct joints
• Insulate ductwork that runs through unheated
areas in order to reduce condensation and lint
build-up on pipe walls; and
• PLEASE BE AWARE THAT FAILURE TO
EXHAUST THE DRYER CORRECTLY WILL
VOID THE DRYER'S WARRANTY.
