WARNING!
Explosion Hazard
Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away from
the dryer.
Place dryer at least 18” (460 mm) above the floor for a garage installation.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, fire, or burns.
The dryer must be installed or stored in an area which is not exposed to water or weather.
It is extremely important that the dryer is installed in a well ventilated location. This dryer must
exhaust air outdoors. Do not install the dryer in any room or closet which does not permit the
free flow of replacement air. The free area of any opening for the introduction of outside air shall
not be less than twice the area of the dryer exhaust outlet.
The area in which the dryer is located must be kept clear and free from combustible materials,
gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids. A dryer produces combustible lint so the area
around the dryer must be cleaned regularly to keep it free of lint.
Make sure dryer is in a suitable location for installation.
Consider installing the dryer before the washing machine in a side by side installation, this will
allow better access to electrical and exhaust connections.
