A WARNING
- Risk of fire
• The clothes dryer (“appliance‘) installation
must be performed by a qualified installer.
• Install the appliance according to the
manufacturer’s instructions and local codes.
• Do not install a clothes dryer with flexible
plastic venting materials. If flexible metal
(foil type) duct is installed, it must be of a
specific type identified by the appliance
manufacturer as suitable for use with
clothes dryers. Flexible venting materials are
known to collapse, be easily crushed, and
trap lint. These conditions will obstruct the
clothes dryer’s airflow and increase the risk
of fire.

To reduce the risk of severe injury or
death, follow all installation instructions.
