Exhaust venting

WARNING

Fire Hazard

Use heavy metal exhaust duct.

Do not use a plastic exhaust duct.

Do not use thin metal foil exhaust duct.

Failure to do so can result in death or fire.

1.Read the exhaust section (page 8–12) before installing the exhaust system to determine the maximum allowable exhaust duct length.

Do not use sheet metal screws when assembling ducting. Always use suitable duct tape. Never use plastic or thin metal foil flexible exhaust material.

2.The exhaust outlet is located close to the center of the rear of the dryer. Make sure you join the exhaust duct to the dryer with duct tape only. This will prevent lint and dust from escaping from the dryer and exhaust system.
