10-Cycle Electric and Gas Dryers
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Step 3: Connect the exhaust ducting
WARNING:
• Make sure that your dryer is
installed properly so it exhausts
air easily.
• Keep ducts as straight as
possible.
• DO NOT restrict your dryer with
a poor exhaust system.
• DO NOT use unnecessarily long
ducts that have many elbows.
• DO NOT use plastic flexible
exhaust material.
• Use a 4 in. (10.2 cm) diameter
rigid or semi-rigid metal duct.
Tape all joints, including at the
dryer.
• DO NOT use sheet metal screws
that can accumulate lint when
assembling the ducting. Joints
should be taped.
• DO NOT let the duct tape cover
the ventilation slots on the back
of your dryer.
• Clean all old ducts before
installing your new dryer. Be
sure the vent flap opens and
closes freely. Inspect and clean
the exhaust system annually.
• DO NOT use a plastic, thin foil,
or non-metal flexible duct.
• DO NOT use dented or clogged
ducts and vent.
Important:
Before you connect the exhaust ducting, review ducting
requirements in Duct requirements on page 16.
