IMPORTANT: Static pressure in the dryer’s exhaust duct should be no greater than that shown in the chart on Page 23. This can be measured with a manometer placed on the exhaust duct approximately 60.96 cm (two feet) from the dryer. See Page 23. All dryers connected to the main collector duct should be in operation when pressure is checked.
Installing an exhaust system does not eliminate the necessity of cleaning the dryer lint filter before each load. The dryer interior and the complete exhaust system should be cleaned periodically by a qualified service person to remove any lint
WARNING
To reduce the risk of electric shock, disconnect the electrical service to the dryer before cleaning.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT block the airflow at the bottom of the dryer’s front panel with laundry, rugs, etc. Blockage will decrease airflow through the dryer, thus reducing the efficiency of the dryer.
