INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
Exhaust Direction
Directional exhausting can be accomplished by installing a
quick-turn 90° dryer vent elbow directly to exhaust outlet
of dryer. Dryer vent elbows are available through your local
parts distributor or hardware store.
See also Clearance Requirements on
the next page.
NOTE
Use of 90° quick-turn elbow
is required to meet minimum
installation depth of free-
standing dryer.
The dryer must be connected to an exhaust outdoors.
Regularly 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 fi ne lint will be expelled into the
laundry area. An accumulation of lint in any area of the
home can create a health and fi re hazard.
WARNING
FIRE HAZARD
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 fi re hazard, as well as increase
drying times.
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 fi re 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. Lint can
become caught in the screen, on the screws or rivets,
clogging the duct work and creating a fi re hazard as well
as increasing drying times. Use an approved vent hood
to terminate the duct outdoors, and seal all joints with
metal foil duct tape. All male duct pipe fi ttings MUST be
installed downstream with the fl ow of air.
WARNING
FIRE HAZARD
• Do not install fl exible plastic or fl exible foil venting
material.
• If installing semi-rigid venting, do not exceed 8 ft. (2.4
m) duct length.
