Installation spacing for recessed area or closet installation

The following spacing dimensions are recommended for this dryer. This dryer has been tested for spacing of 0" (0 cm) clearance on the sides and rear. Recommended spacing should be considered for the following reasons:

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

Additional clearances might be required for wall, door and floor moldings.

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.
