Installation spacing for recesse

d

 area or closet installation

The following spacing dimensions are recommended for this dryer. 
This dryer has been tested for spacing of 0" (0 mm) clearance on 

 

the sides and rear. Recommended spacing should be considered 

 

for the following reasons:

Additional spacing should be considered for ease of installation 
and servicing.

Additional clearances might be required for wall, door, and floor 
moldings.

Additional spacing should be considered on all sides of the dryer 
to reduce noise transfer.

For closet installation, with a door, minimum ventilation openings 
in the top and bottom of the door are required. Louvered doors 
with equivalent ventilation openings are acceptable.

Companion appliance spacing should also be considered.
