WARNING Remove the door from all discarded appliances to prevent a child from suffocating. Location considerations The dryer should be located where there is enough space at the front for loading the dryer, and enough space behind for the exhaust system. This dryer is factoryready for the rear exhaust option. To exhaust out the bottom, right or the left, use the accessory exhaust kit. Instructions are included with the kit. Make sure the room in which the dryer is located has enough fresh air. The dryer must be located where there are no air-flow obstructions. For gas dryers, adequate clearance must be maintained as noted on the data plate to ensure adequate air for combustion and the proper dryer operation. The dryer must not be installed or stored in an area where it will be exposed to water and/or weather. The dryer area must be kept clear of combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable vapors and liquids. A dryer produces combustible lint. The area around the dryer should be kept lint-free. 10 English DV7500K-03381C-02_EN.indd 10 4/7/2016 5:05:38 PM
