•The dryer exhaust system must be exhausted to the
outside of the dwelling. If the dryer is not exhausted
outdoors, some fine lint and large amounts of moisture
will be expelled into the laundry area. An accumulation
of lint in any area of the home may create a health and
fire hazard.
•Use only rigid, semi-rigid or flexible metal 4-inch

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Operation
•Read all instructions before using the appliance.
•Do not dry articles that have been previously
cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with
gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other flammable
or explosive substances, as they give off vapors
that could ignite or explode.
•Do not reach into the appliance if the drum is
moving.
•Do not allow children to play on or in the appliance.
Close supervision of children is necessary when
the appliance is used near children.
•Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate
static unless recommended by the manufacturer of
the fabric softener or product.
•Do not use heat to dry articles containing foam
rubber or similarly textured rubber-like materials.
•Do not tamper with controls.
•Always check the inside of the dryer for foreign
objects. Failure to follow these instructions may
result in fire or death.
•Do not store plastic, paper, or clothing that may
burn or melt on top of the dryer during operation.
Failure to follow these instructions may result in fire
or death.
•Be careful when opening and closing the door.
Fingers and hands can get caught in the door and
cause injury if the door drops forward unexpectedly.

forward, causing injury or damage.
•Do not place items on the top of the dryer.
•Do not put animals, such as pets into the appliance.
•Gas appliances can cause minor exposure to four
potentially hazardous substances, namely benzene,
carbon monoxide, formaldehyde, and soot, caused
primarily by the incomplete combustion of natural
gas or LP fuels.
•Properly adjusted dryers will minimize incomplete
combustion. Exposure to these substances can be
minimized further by properly venting the dryer to
the outdoors.
•Do not place items exposed to cooking oils in your
dryer. Items contaminated with cooking oils may
contribute to a chemical reaction that could cause a
load to catch fire.
To reduce the risk of fire due to contaminated loads,
the final part of a tumble dryer cycle occurs without
heat (cool down period). Avoid stopping a tumble
dryer before the end of the drying cycle unless all
items are quickly removed and spread out so that
the heat is dissipated.
•Do not let children or pets climb inside the dryer
drum.
•Do not put living animals such as pets inside the
product.

InstallationLocationRequirements
WARNING
Read all installation instructions completely before installing and operating the dryer! It is important that you
review this entire manual before installing and using the dryer. Detailed instructions concerning electrical
connections, gas connections, and exhaust requirements are provided on the following pages.
The installation requires:
•A location that allows for proper exhaust installation. A gas dryer must be exhausted to the outdoors. See
Venting the Dryer.
•A grounded electrical outlet located within 2 ft. (61 cm) of either side of the dryer. See Connecting Electric
Dryers .
•A sturdy floor to support the total dryer weight of 200 lb (90.7 kg). The combined weight of a companion
appliance should also be considered.
•No other fuel-burning appliance can be installed in the same closet as a dryer.
Do not operate the dryer at temperatures below 45 °F (7 °C). At lower temperatures, the dryer might not shut off
at the end of an automatic cycle. This can result in longer drying times. The dryer must not be installed or stored
in an area where it will be exposed to water and/or weather. Check code requirements. Some codes limit, or do
not permit, installation of the dryer in garages, mobile homes or sleeping quarters. Contact your local building
inspector.
NOTE
•The floor must be level, with a maximum slope of 1 inch (2.5 cm) under the entire dryer.
Clothes may not tumble properly, and automatic sensor cycles may not operate correctly if dryer is not
level.
•For a garage installation, you will need to place the dryer at least 18 inches (46 cm) above the floor. The
standard pedestal is 15 inches (38.1 cm). You will need 18 inches (46 cm) from the garage floor to the
bottom of the dryer.
Clearances
Installation Spacing for Recessed Area or Closet Installation
The following spacing dimensions are recommended for this dryer. This dryer has been tested for clearances of
1 inch (2.5 cm) on the sides and rear. Recommended clearances should be considered for the following reasons:
•Additional clearances should be considered for ease of installation and servicing.
•Additional clearances might be required for wall, door and floor moldings.
•Additional clearances should be considered on all sides of the dryer to reduce noise transfer.
For closet installation, with a door, minimum ventilation openings in the top and bottom of the door are
required. Louvered doors with equivalent ventilation openings are acceptable.
•Companion appliance spacing should also be considered.
12
INSTALLATION
ClosetVentilationRequirements
Closets with doors must have both an upper and lower vent to prevent heat and moisture buildup in the closet.
One upper vent opening with a minimum opening of 48 sq. in. (310 cm2) must be installed no lower than 6 feet
above the floor. One lower vent opening with a minimum opening of 24 sq. in. (155 cm2) must be installed no
more than one foot above the floor. Install vent grills in the door or cut down the door at the top and bottom to
form openings. Louvered doors with equivalent ventilation openings are also acceptable.
NOTE
There should be at least a little space around the dryer (or any other appliance) to eliminate the transfer of
vibration from one appliance to another. If there is enough vibration, it could cause appliances to make noise
or come into contact, causing paint damage and further increasing noise.

LevelingtheDryer
WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury to persons, adhere
to all industry recommended safety procedures
including the use of long-sleeved gloves and
safety glasses. Failure to follow this warning may
result in serious injury or death.
•The appliance is heavy. Two or more people
are required when installing the dryer. Failure to
follow this warning may result in serious injury
or death.
•To ensure that the dryer provides optimal drying
performance, it must be level. To minimize
vibration, noise, and unwanted movement, the
floor must be a perfectly level, solid surface.
NOTE
Adjust the leveling feet only as far as necessary
to level the dryer. Extending the leveling feet more
than necessary may cause the dryer to vibrate.
Position the dryer in the final location. Check
1
levelness of dryer from side to side. Repeat from
front to back.
Place level here
Use an adjustable wrench to turn the leveling
2
feet. Unscrew the legs to raise the dryer or
screw in the legs to lower it. Raise or lower with
the leveling feet until the dryer is level from side
to side and front to back. Make sure that all four
leveling feet are in firm contact with the floor.
If you are installing the dryer on the optional pedestal,
you must use the leveling feet on the pedestal to level the
dryer. The dryer leveling feet should be fully retracted.

Installing the Side Vent Kit
WARNING
•Use a heavy metal vent.
•Do not use plastic or thin foil ducts.
•Clean old ducts before installing this dryer.
•To reduce the risk of injury to persons, adhere
to all industry recommended safety procedures
including the use of long-sleeved gloves and
safety glasses.
•Failure to follow all of the safety warnings in this
manual could result in property damage, injury
to persons, or death.
The dryer is shipped to vent to the rear. It can also
be configured to vent to the bottom or side (right-side
venting is not available on gas models).
An adapter kit, part number 383EEL9001B, may be
purchased from an LG retailer. This kit contains the
necessary duct components to change the dryer vent
location.
