Determine vent path
■
Select the route that will provide the straightest and most direct
path outdoors.
■
Plan the installation to use the fewest number of elbows
and turns.
■
When using elbows or making turns, allow as much room
as possible.
■
Bend vent gradually to avoid kinking.
■
Use the fewest 90° turns possible.
Determine vent length and elbows needed for best
drying performance
■
Use the following vent system chart to determine type of vent
material and hood combinations acceptable to use.
NOTE: Do not use vent runs longer than those specified
in the Vent system chart.
Exhaust systems longer than those specified will:
■
Shorten the life of the dryer.
■
Reduce performance, resulting in longer drying times
and increased energy usage.
The vent system chart provides venting requirements that will help
to achieve the best drying performance.
Vent system chart
NOTE: Side and bottom exhaust installations have a 90º turn inside
the dryer. To determine maximum exhaust length, add one 90º turn
to the chart.

Install Vent System
1. Install exhaust hood. Use caulking compound to seal exterior wall
opening around exhaust hood.
2. Connect vent to exhaust hood. Vent must fit inside exhaust hood.
Secure vent to exhaust hood with 4" (102 mm) clamp.
3. Run vent to dryer location. Use the straightest path possible. See
"Determine vent path" in "Plan Vent System." Avoid 90º turns.
Use clamps to seal all joints. Do not use duct tape, screws,
or other fastening devices that extend into the interior of the vent
to secure vent, which can catch lint.

INSTALL LEVELING LEGS
WARNING
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install dryer.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
1. To avoid damaging the floor, use a large flat piece of cardboard
from the dryer carton. Place cardboard under the entire back
edge of the dryer.
2. Firmly grasp the body of the dryer (not the console panel).
Gently lay the dryer on the cardboard. See illustration.
3. Examine the leveling legs. Find the diamond marking.
4. Screw the legs into the leg holes by hand. Use a wrench to finish
turning the legs until the diamond marking is no longer visible.
5. Place a carton corner post from dryer packaging under each
of the 2 dryer back corners. Stand the dryer up. Slide the dryer
on the corner posts until it is close to its final location. Leave
enough room to connect the exhaust vent.
CONNECT VENT
1. Using a 4" (102 mm) clamp, connect vent to exhaust outlet
in dryer. If connecting to existing vent, make sure the vent is clean.
The dryer vent must fit over the dryer exhaust outlet and inside
the exhaust hood. Check that the vent is secured to exhaust hood
with a 4" (102 mm) clamp.
2. Move dryer into its final location. Do not crush or kink vent.
3. (On gas models) Check that there are no kinks in the flexible
gas line.
4. Once the exhaust vent connection is made, remove the corner
posts and cardboard.
