tions.

• Clothes dryer installation must be performed by a qualified installer.
• Install the clothes dryer according to these instructions and in accordance 

with local codes.

exposed to water and or weather.

• Save these instructions.  (Installers: Be sure to leave these instructions with 

the customer).

• DO NOT install a clothes dryer with flexible plastic ducting 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

are known to collapse, be easily crushed, and trap lint.  These conditions will 

obstruct dryer airflow and increase the risk of fire.
