RISK

• 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
Dryer To House Vent" on page S of 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 and or weather.
• Save these instructions. (Installers: Be sure to leave these instructions with
the customer).

HOOD OR WALLCAP
Terminate in a manner to prevent back drafts or entry of birds or
other wildlife.
Termination should present minimal resistanceto the exhaust air flow

Never install a screen in or over the exhaust duct. This could cause lint
build up.
Wall caps must be installed at least 12 in.above ground level or any
other obstruction with the opening pointed down.
EPARATIONOF TURNS
For best performance, separate all turns by at least 4 ft. of straight duct,
including distance between last turn and exhaust hood.

Two 451Aturns should be treated as one 90_Aturn.
Eachturn over 45_Ashould be treated as one 90_Aturn.
EALING OF JOINTS
Alljoints should be tight to avoid leaks.The male end of each section of
duct must point away from the dryer
The duct shall not be assembled with screws or other fastening means
that extend into the duct and catch lint.
Ductjoints can be made air and moisture-tight by wrapping the
overlapped joints with duct tape.
Horizontal runs should slope down toward the outdoors 1/2 inch per foot.
_ISULATION
Duct work that runs through an unheated area or is near air conditioning
should be insulated to reduce condensation and lint build-up.

WARNING - TO REDUCE THE RISK
ELBOWHIGHLY

OF FIRE OR PERSONAL INJURY:

_ECOMMENDED ,,_

* This clothes dryer must be exhausted to the outdoors.
. Use only 4" rigid metal ducting for the home exhaust duct.
Use only 4" rigid metal or UL-listed flexible metal (semi-rigid
or foil-type) duct to connect the dryer to the home exhaust
duct. It must be installed in accordance with the instructions
found in "Connecting The Dryer To House Vent" on page 5 of
this manual.
Do not terminate exhaust in a chimney, a wall, a ceiling, gas
vent, crawl space, attic, under an enclosed floor, or in any
other concealed space of a building. The accumulated lint
could create a fire hazard.
Never terminate the exhaust into a common duct with a
kitchen exhaust system. A combination of grease and lint
creates a potential fire hazard.
Do not use duct longer than specified in the exhaust length
table. Longer ducts can accumulate lint, creating a potential
fire hazard.
Never install a screen in or over the exhaust duct. This will
cause lint to accumulate, creating a potential fire hazard.
Do not assemble ductwork with any fasteners that extend
into the duct. These fasteners can accumulate lint, creating
a potential fire hazard.
Do not obstruct incoming or exhausted air.
Provide an access for inspection and cleaning of the exhaust
system, especially at turns and joints. Exhaust system shall
be inspected and cleaned at least once a year.

THE DRYER TO HOUSE VENT

RIGID METAL TRANSITION

DUCT

For best drying performance, a rigid metal transition duct is
recommended.
Rigid metal transitions ducts reduce the risk of crushing and
kinking.
UL-LISTED FLEXIBLEMETAL (SEMI-RIGID}TRANSITION DUCT
• If rigid metal duct cannot be used, then UL-listed flexible metal
(semi-rigid) ducting can be used (Kit WXO8X!O077).
Never install flexible metal duct in walls, ceilings, floors or other
enclosed spaces.
Total length of flexible metal duct should not exceed 8 feet
(2.4m).
For many applications, installing elbows at both the dryer and
the wall is highly recommended (see illustrations below). Elbows
allow the dryer to sit close to the wall without kinking and or
crushing the transition duct, maximizing drying performance.
Avoid resting the duct on sharp objects.

[6-I ALCOVE OR CLOSET INSTALLATION

UL-LISTED FLEXIBLEMETAL (FOIL-TYPE}TRANSITION DUCT
* In special installations, it may be necessary to connect the dryer
to the house vent using a flexible metal (foil- type) duct. A
UL-listed flexible metal (foil-type)duct may be used ONLYin
installations where rigid metal or flexible metal (semi-rigid)
ducting cannot be used AND where a 4" diameter can be
maintained throughout the entire length of the transition duct.
In Canada and the United States, only the flexible metal(foiltype) ducts that comply with the "Outline for Clothes Dryer
Transition Duct Subject 2!S8A" shall be used.
Never install flexible metal duct in walls, ceilings, floors or other
enclosed spaces.
Total length of flexible metal duct should not exceed 8 feet
(2.4m).
Avoid resting the duct on sharp objects.
For best drying performance:
!. Slide one end of the duct over the clothes dryer outlet
pipe.
2. Secure the duct with a clamp.
3. With the dryer in its permanent position, extend the
duct to its full length. Allow 2" of duct to overlap the
exhaust pipe. Cut off and remove excess duct. Keep the
duct as straight as possible for maximum airflow.
4. Secure the duct to the exhaust pipe with the other
clamp.

If your dryer is approved for installation in an alcove or closet,
it will be stated on a label on the dryer back.
The dryer MUST be vented to the outdoors. See the EXHAUST
INFORMATIONsections 3 & 4.
Minimum clearance between dryer cabinet and adjacent
walls or other surfaces is:
0 in. either side
3 in. front and rear
Minimum vertical space from floor to overhead cabinets,
ceiling, etc. is 43 in. without pedestal, SS in. with pedestal.
Closet doors must be Iouvered or otherwise ventilated and
must contain a minimum of 60 sq. in. of open area equally
distributed. If the closet contains both a washer and a dryer,
doors must contain a minimum of 120 sq. in. of open area
equally distributed.
NOTE: WHEN THE EXHAUST DUCT IS LOCATED AT THE
REAR OF THE DRYER, MINIMUM
WALL IS 5.5 IN.

CLEARANCE FROM THE
