- Fire Hazard

WARNING

 

Clothes dryer installation must be performed by a 

qualified installer.

 

Install the clothes dryer according to these 

instructions and local codes.

 

DO NOT

 install a clothes dryer with flexible plastic 

venting materials. If flexible metal (semi-rigid or 

foil-type) duct is installed, it must be UL-listed and 

installed in accordance with the instructions found 

in “Connecting the Dryer to House Vent” later in 

this manual. Flexible venting materials are known 

to collapse, be easily crushed and trap lint. These 

conditions will obstruct dryer airflow and increase 

the risk of fire.

 

DO NOT

 install or store this appliance in any 

location where it could be exposed to water or 

weather.

 

To reduce the risk of severe injury or death, follow 

all installation instructions.

 

Save these instructions. (Installers: Be sure to leave 

these instructions with the customer.)
