Installation spacing for recessed area or closet installation

All dimensions show recommended and minimum spacing allowed.

■ Additional spacing should be considered for ease of installation and servicing.

■ Additional clearances might be required for wall, door, oor moldings, dryer venting, and gas line.

■ Additional spacing 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.
