• Metal exhaust system hardware which is available for
purchase from your dealer.
Special pmvialons must be made in mobile homes to
introduce outside air into the dryeE The opening (such as a
nearby window) should be st least twice as large as the dryer
exhaust opening.
FAeetri qulrements
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug Into a grounded 4 prong outlet.
Failure to do so can result In death or electrical shock.
It is your responsibility
• Tocontacta qualifiedelectricalinstaller,

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
• For a grounded, cord-connected dryer:
This dryer must be grounded. In the event of malfunction
or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock
by providing a path of least resistance for electric current. This
dryer is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding
conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged
into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and ground-
ed in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
WARNING: Improper connection or the equipment-
grounding conductor can result in a risk ofelectric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician or service representative or
personnel ir you are in doubt as to whether the dryer is proper-
ly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the dryer: if
it will not fitthe outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a
qualified electrician.

VentingRequirements PlanVentSystem
Fire Hazard
Use a heavy metal vent.
Do not use a plaatlc vent.
Do not use a metal foil vent.
Failure to follow these Inatructlone can result In death
or fire.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, this dryer MUST BE
EXHAUSTED OUTDOORS.
4 in. (10.2 cm) heavy metal exhaust vent and clamps must be
used. DURASAFE TM venting products are recommended.
DURASAFETM vent products can be purchased from your dealer
or by calling Whirlpool Parts and Accessories. For more
information, see the "Assistance or Service" section of your
"Dryer User Instructions."
• Do not exhaust the dryer into any gas vent, chimney, wall,
ceiling, or a concealed space of a building.
• Do not use an exhaust hood with a magnetic latch.
• Do not installflexible metal vent in enclosed walls, ceilings or
floors.
• Do not use screws or ether fastening devices that extend into
the interior of the vent to secure vent.
IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codas and ordinances.
Improper venting can cause moisture and lint to collect
Indoors, which may result In:
• Moisture damage to woodwork, furniture, paint, wall-
paper, carpets, etc.
• Housecleaning problems and health problems.
Use a heavy metal vent. Do net use plastic or metal foil vent.
Rigid metal vent is recommended to prevent crushing and kinking.
Flexible metal vent must be fully extended and supported when
the dryer is in its final position. Remove excess flexible metal vent
to avoid sagging and kinking that may result in reduced airflow
and poor performance.
An exhaust hood should cap the vent to prevent rodents and
insects from entering the home.
Exhaust hood must be at least 12 in. (30.5 cm) from the ground or
any object that may be inthe path of the exhaust (such as flowers,
rocks or bushes, etc.).
If using an existing vent system, clean lintfrom the entire length of
the system and make sure exhaust hood is not plugged with lint.
Replace any plastic or metal foilvent with rigid metal or flexible
metal vent.
Use clamps to seal all joints. Do not use duct tape, screws or
ether fastening devices that extend into the interior ofthe vent to
eacure vent.

Special provisions for mobile home installations
The exhaust vent must be securely fastened to a noncombustible
portion of the mobile home structure. Do not use screws or other
fastening devices that extend intothe interiorof the vent to secure
vent.
Terminate the exhaust vent outside. The exhaust vent must not
terminate beneath the mobile home and must not be connected
to any other duct, vent or chimney.
Determine Vent Length
1. Select the route that will provide the straightest and most
direct path outdoors. Plan the installation to use the fewest
number of elbows and turns. When using elbows or making
turns, allow as much room as possible. Bend vent graduallyto
avoid kinking. Avoid 90° turns.
2. Determine vent length.
The maximum length ofthe exhaust system depends upon:
• The type ofvent (rigid metal or flexible metal).
• The number of elbows used.
• Type of hood.
Recommended hood styles are shown here.

1.Louvered hood style
2. Box hoodstyle
3,
The angled hood style (shown following) is acceptable.
°°
See the exhaust vent length chart that matches your hood
type for the maximum vent lengths you can use.
Exhaust systems longer then specified will:
• Shorten the life of the drye_
• Reduce performance, resulting in longer drying times and
increased energy usage.
Determine the number of elbows you will need.
NOTE: Do not use vent runs longer than specified inthe Vent
Length Chart.
The chart below helps you determine your maximum vent
length based on the number of 90° turns or elbows you will
need and the type of vent (rigidor flexible metal) and hood
that you will use.
