safety instructions
• Clothes dryer installation must be performed by a qualified installer.
• Install the clothes dryer according to the manufacturer's instructions and local codes.
• Do not install a clothes dryer with flexible plastic venting materials. If flexible metal (foil

as suitable for use with clothes dryers. Flexible venting materials are known to collapse,
be easily crushed, and trap lint. These conditions will obstruct clothes dryer airflow and
increase the risk of fire.
• To reduce the risk of severe injury or death, follow all installation instructions.
• Save these instructions.
