have received all the items shown in Package contents on page 7.
• To prevent personal injury or strain, wear protective gloves and use a furniture
mover whenever lifting or carrying your dryer.
Choosing a location

the vent location, see Changing the dryer vent location (optional) on page 21

there are no air-flow obstructions. The ambient temperature should not be
lower than 33° F (.6° C).
