- Risk of Fire
• Clothes dryer installation must be performed by a
qualified installer.
• Install the clothes dryer according to these instructions
and local codes.
DO NOT
install a clothes dryer with flexible plastic venting
materials. If flexible metal (semi-rigid or foil-type) duct is

materials are known to collapse, be easily crushed and
trap lint. These conditions will obstruct dryer airflow and
increase the risk of fire.

install or store this appliance in any location
where it could be exposed to water or weather.
• To reduce the risk of severe injury or death, follow all
installation instructions.
• Save these instructions. (Installers: Be sure to leave
these instructions with the customer.)
