Install Vent System
1. (Optional) Put on safety glasses and gloves.
2. Install exhaust hood. Use caulking compound to seal exterior
wall opening around exhaust hood.
3. Connect vent to exhaust hood. Vent must fit inside exhaust
hood. Secure vent to exhaust hood with 4 in. (10.2 cm) clamp.
4. Run vent to dryer location. Use the straightest path possible.
See "Determine Vent Length." 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.
Level Washer/Dryer
Properly leveling your washer/dryer prevents excessive noise and
vibration.
1. Check the levelness of the washer/dryer by placing a level on
the top edge of the washer, first side to side, then front to
back.
2. If the washer/dryer is not level, prop up the front with a wood
block and adjust the feet up or down as necessary. Remove
wood block and lower washer/dryer. Repeat this step until the
washer/dryer is level.
Connect Vent
1. Using a 4 in. (10.2 cm) clamp, connect vent to exhaust outlet
in washer/dryer. If connecting to existing vent, make sure the
vent is clean. The vent must fit over the exhaust outlet and
inside the exhaust hood. Make sure the vent is secured to
exhaust hood with a 4 in. (10.2 cm) clamp.
2. Move washer/dryer into final position. Do not crush or kink
vent. Make sure washer/dryer is level.
3. (On gas models) Check to be sure there are no kinks in the
flexible gas line.

Electrical supply is connected.
House fuse is intact and tight, or circuit breaker has not
tripped.

dryer door and feel for heat.
If you do not feel heat, turn the dryer off and check the
following:
There may be 2 fuses or circuit breakers for the dryer.
Check to make sure both fuses are intact and tight, or that
both circuit breakers have not tripped. If there is still no
