Install and use in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
Do not place items in your dryer that have been spotted or soaked with vegetable oil or cooking
oil. Even after being washed, these items may contain significant amounts of these oils.
Residual oil on clothing can ignite spontaneoulsy. The potential for spontaneous
combustion increases when items containing vegetable oil or cooking oil are exposed to
heat. Heat sources such as your dryer can warm these items, allowing an oxidation reaction
in the oil to occur. Oxidation creates heat. If this heat cannot escape, the items can become
hot enough to catch fire. Piling, stacking, or storing these kinds of items may prevent heat
from escaping and can create a fire hazard.
All washed and unwashed fabrics that contain vegetable oil or cooking oil can be
dangerous. Washing these items in hot water with extra detergent will reduce, but not
eliminate, the hazard. Always use the Cool Down cycle for these items to reduce their
temperature. Never remove these items from the dryer hot or interrupt the drying cycle until
the items have run through the Cool Down cycle. Never pile or stack these items when they
are hot.

DUCTING REQUIREMENTS
• Use a 4-inch (10.2 cm) diameter rigid aluminum or rigid galvanized steel duct.
• Do not use a smaller duct.
• Ducts larger than 4 inches (10.2 cm) in diameter can cause increased lint accumulation.
Lint accumulation should be cleaned regularly.
• If a flexible metal duct must be used, use the type with a sti sheet metal wall. Do not use a flexible duct
with a thin foil wall. Serious blockage can result if the flexible metal duct is bent too sharply.
• Never install any type of flexible duct in walls, ceilings, or other concealed spaces.
• Keep the exhaust duct as straight and short as possible.
• Secure joints with duct tape. Do not use screws.
• Plastic flexible duct can kink, sag, be punctured, reduce airflow, extend drying times, and aect dryer
operation.
• Exhaust systems longer than recommended can extend drying times, aect machine operation, and
may collect lint.
• The exhaust duct should end with an exhaust hood with a swing-out damper to prevent back drafts and
the entry of wildlife. Never use an exhaust hood with a magnetic damper.
• The hood should have at least 12 inches (30.5 cm) of clearance between the bottom of the hood and
the ground or other obstruction. The hood opening should point down.
• Never install a screen over the exhaust outlet.
• To avoid lint buildup, do not exhaust the dryer directly into a window well. Do not exhaust under a house
or porch.
• If exhaust ductwork must run through an unheated area, the duct should be insulated and slope slightly
down towards the exhaust hood to reduce condensation and lint buildup.
• Inspect and clean the interior of the exhaust system at least once a year. Unplug the power cord before
cleaning.
• Check frequently to be sure the exhaust hood damper opens and closes freely.
• Check once per month, and clean at least one time per year. Note: If clothes are not getting dry, then
check ducting for obstructions.
• Do not exhaust dryer into any wall, ceiling, crawl space, or concealed space of a building, gas vent, or
any other common duct or chimney. This could create a fire hazard from lint expelled by the dryer.
