Important Safety Instructions

• Ensure the entire dryer exhaust system is clean and free of lint and debris prior to the
installation of your new dryer. The entire exhaust system should be inspected and
cleaned a minimum of every 18 months with normal usage. Failure to comply with
cleaning your exhaust system will increase the RISK of FIRE.
• DO NOT install a clothes dryer with flexible plastic or flexible foil venting material.
Flexible venting materials are known to collapse, be easily crushed and trap lint.
These conditions will obstruct clothes dryer airflow and in-crease the risk of fire.
• DO NOT screen the exhaust ends of the vent system, or use any screws, rivets
or other fasteners that extend into the duct to assemble the exhaust system. NO
screen or grate of any mesh size is allowed to cover the outdoor exhaust opening.
