Exhaust ducting andconnections
A gap of 3/8" (10 mm) must be
provided between the machine and
the floor. This gap is necessary for
proper air flow and must not be
blocked by a toekick or thick piled
carpets.
Sufficient venting of the installation
site is essential for proper dryer
operation. Inadequate ventilation will
increase energy use and drying
times.
,WARNING
Danger of toxic fumes.
The exhaust gases from the dryer
must only be vented outside the
building.
DO NOT terminate the exhaust
ducts in a chimney, fireplace
ducting, a combustion appliance
vent flue, or enclosed,
unventilated area such as attics,
garages, crawlspaces, walls,
ceilings or concealed space of a
building.
To reduce the risk of fire, only use
metal ductwork.
