EXHAUST SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
Use only 4 inch (10.2 cm) diameter (minimum) rigid or flexible metal duct and approved vent hood which has a swing-out damper(s) that open
when the dryer is in operation. When the dryer stops, the dampers
automatically close to prevent drafts and the entrance of insects and rodents. To avoid restricting the outlet, maintain a minimum of 12 inches (30.5 cm) clearance between the vent hood and the ground or any other
obstruction.
and safe operation of your dryer. Failure to foflow these instructions can create excessive drying times and fire hazards.
Excessive lint carl build up inside exhaust system and create a fire hazard and restrict air flow. Restricted air flow will increase dryer times. If your present system is made up of plastic duct or metal foil duct, replace it
with a rigid or flexible metal duct. Ensure the present duct is free of
any lint prior to installing dryer duct.
_f_- Risk of Fire - A clothes dryer produces combustible lint. If
the dryer is not exhausted outdoors some fine lint will be expelled into the
laundry area. An accumulation of lint in any area of the home can create a health and fire hazard. 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.
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 fire hazard.
elbows allowed in the "MAXIMUM LENGTH" charts can cause an accumulation of lint in the exhaust system. Phgging the system could
create a fire hazard, as well as increase drying times.
nor use any screws or rivets to assemble the exhaust system. Lint can become caught in the screen, on the screws or rivets, clogging the duct work and creating a fire hazard as well as increasing drying times. Use an approved vent hood to terminate the duct outdoors, and seal all
joints with duct tape. All male duct pipe fittings MUST be installed
downstream with the flow of air. _Explosion hazard. Do not install the dryer where
gasofine or other flammables are kept or stored. If the dryer is
instalbd in a garage, it must be a minimum of 18 inches (45.7 cm) above
the floor. Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, fire or burns.

The dryer MUST be isolated from the gas supply piping system during
any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than
1/2 psig (3.45 kPa).
INSTALL MALE FITTINGS IN CORRECT DIRECTION
In installations where the exhaust system is not described in the charts, the
following method must be used to determine if the exhaust system is acceptable:
1. Connect an inclined or digital manometer between the dryer and the point the exhaust connects to the dryer.
2. Set the dryer timer and temperature to air fluff (cool down) and start the dryer.
3. Read the measurement on the manometer.
4. The system back pressure MUST NOT be higher than
0.75 inches of water column. If the system back pressure is lessthan 0.75 inches of water column, the
system is acceptable. If the manometer reading is higher than 0.75 inches of water column, the system is
too restrictive and the installation is unacceptable.
Although vertical orientation of the exhaust system is acceptable, certain extenuating circumstances could affect the perfor- mance of the dryer: , Only the rigid metal duct work should be used.
Venting vertical through a roof may expose the exhaust system to down drafts causing an increase in vent
restriction. Running the exhaust system through an uninsulated
area may cause condensation and faster accumulation of lint.
, Compression or crimping of the exhaust system will
cause an increase in vent restriction.
The exhaust system should be inspected and cleaned a minimum of every 18 months with normal usage. The more the dryer is used, the more often you should check the exhaust system and vent hood for proper operation.
EXHAUST DIRECTION
All dryers shipped from the factory are set up for rear exhausting. However, on electric dryers, exhausting can be to the right or left side of the cabinet or the bottom of the dryer. On gas dryers, exhausting can be to the right side of the cabinet or the bottom of the dryer. Directional exhausting can be accomplished by installing Exhaust Kit, P/N 131456800, available through your parts distributor. Follow the instructions supplied
with the kit.
LOCATION OF YOUR DRYER
DO NOT INSTALL YOUR DRYER:
1. In an area exposed to dripping water or outside weather conditions.
2. In an area where it will come in contact with curtains, drapes, or anything that will obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air.
3. On carpet. Floor MUST be solid with a maximum slope of 1 inch (2.54
cm).
INSTALLATION IN RECESS OR CLOSET
1. A dryer installed in a bedroom, bathroom, recess or closet, MUST be exhausted outdoors.
2. No other fuel burning appliance shall be installed in the same closet as the Gas dryer.
3. Your dryer needs the space around it for proper ventilation.
DO NOT install your dryer in a closet with a solid door.
4. A minimum of 120 square inches (774.2 square cm) of opening, equally divided at the top and bottom of the door, is required. Air openings
are required to be unobstructed when a door is installed. A Iouvered door with equivalent air openings for the full length of the door is
acceptable.

DON'T
O
Your dryer is designed so the door swing may be reversed at any time without additional parts. Conversion is accomplished by transferring hinges to the opposite side of the cabinet.
"Solid door "Reversal Instructions:
1. Open the dryer door. Remove the four hinge hole plugs from the left side of the door opening. Place nearby for future
installation. NOTE: You may need a plastic knife to help pull out the plugs. Be careful not to scratch the paint.
2. Remove the four screws that secure the door hinges to the dryer front panel (see below). NOTE: Remove one screw from each of the two hinges first. Hold the door firmly before removing the last two screws.
3. Rotate the door 180° and reinstall the door hinges to the dryer front panel with the four screws.
4. Install the four hinge hole plugs in the open screw holes on the right side of the door opening.
