The dryer must be connected to an
exhaust outdoors.
Prior to installing your
new dryer,
inspect the outdoor exhaust
opening and remove any accumulation of
lint around the outdoor exhaust opening
and in the surrounding area.
WARNING
FIRE HAZARD
A clothes dryer must be exhausted
outdoors. DO NOT exhaust dryer into
a chimney, a wall, a ceiling, an attic, a
crawl space or any concealed space of
a building. A clothes dryer produces
combustible lint. If the dryer is not
exhausted outdoors, some fine lint will
be expelled into the laundry area. An
accumulation of lint in any area of the
home can create a health and fire hazard.
WARNING
FIRE HAZARD
• DO NOT allow combustible materials
(for example: clothing, draperies/
curtains, paper) to come in contact
with exhaust system. The dryer MUST
NOT be exhausted into a chimney,
a wall, a ceiling, or any concealed
space of a building which can
accumulate lint, resulting in a fire
hazard.
• DO NOT screen the exhaust ends of
the vent system, or use any screws,
rivets or other fasteners that extend
into the duct to assemble the exhaust
system.
No screen, grate, or guard
of any mesh
size is allowed to cover
the exhaust opening.
Lint can become caught
in the screen, grate,
guard, or on the screws or
rivets, clogging the duct work
and creating a fire hazard as well
as increasing drying times
. Use an
approved vent hood to terminate
the duct outdoors, and seal all
joints with metal foil tape. All male
duct pipe fittings MUST be installed
downstream with the flow of air.
WARNING
FIRE HAZARD
Never exceed more than 3 – 90 elbows
(Standard Vent) and 4 -90 elbows
(Long Vent Models Only) in the exhaust
duct system. Exceeding the length of
duct pipe or number of elbows allowed
in the “MAXIMUM LENGTH” charts can
cause an accumulation of lint in the
exhaust system. Plugging the system
could create a fire hazard, as well as
increase drying times.
WARNING
FIRE HAZARD
To prevent the Risk of Fire, use only
the recommended exhaust duct length
chart provided by the manufacturer
for your specific model. Use Long
Vent duct lengths ONLY on laundry
center models identified as LONG
VENT. Standard Vent models are NOT
designed to operate using Long Vent
exhaust duct lengths.
WARNING
FIRE HAZARD
Failure to follow safety warnings
exactly could result in serious injury,
death, or property damage. DO NOT
install a booster fan in the exhaust
duct. Install ALL clothes dryers in
accordance with the installation
instructions in this manual.
