Page 13 highlights

Installation Location considerations Locate the dryer where there is enough space at the front for loading the dryer, and enough space behind for the exhaust system. This dryer is factory-ready for rear exhaust. To exhaust out the bottom or the right or the left (electric model only), use the accessory exhaust kit (sold separately). Instructions are included with the kit. It's important to make sure the room has enough fresh air. The dryer must be located where there is no air-flow obstruction. On gas dryers, adequate clearance as noted on the data plate must be maintained to ensure adequate air for combustion and proper dryer operation. Do not install or store the dryer in an area where it will be exposed to water and/or weather. Keep the dryer area 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. Alcove or closet installation Minimum clearances between the dryer and adjacent walls or other surfaces are: 2" in front, 17" on top, 1" on either side, and 5" in the back. The closet front must have two unobstructed air openings for a combined minimum total area of 72 in² with 3" minimum clearance on the top and bottom. A louvered door with equivalent space clearance is acceptable. WARNING • You must exhaust the dryer to the outside to reduce the risk of fire when you install the dryer in and alcove or closet. • To reduce the risk of fire, you must exhaust the dryer to the outdoors. See "Exhausting" section. • No other fuel-burning appliance should be installed in the same closet as the dryer. %7+2@&/64JOEE English 13
