side outlet, follow the steps below:
1. Using a flathead screw-driver, turn the ex-
haust outlet cover you plan to use to the
right or left to align the tabs holding the
cover in place.
2. Remove the exhaust outlet cover.
3. Remove the stub pipe from the rear ex-
haust outlet and place it in the outlet you
plan to use.
4. Push the duct onto the stub pipe and se-
cure it with a clamp.
5. With the duct attached, insert the stub pipe
into the hole. It should snap into place.

Warning!
To reduce the risk of fire, this appliance must
be exhausted OUTDOORS or the equivalent.
Never cover the end of the dryer stub or ex-
haust duct with anything to catch lint, except
for UL approved vent basket.
Connecting to a ventilation duct
You will need a UL-CSA-approved, 4-inch
ridged metal exhaust duct. If a flexible duct is
used it must comply with the Outline for
Clothes Dryer Transition Duct. Subject 2158A
and maximum length of 2,4 m (8 feet).
Note
The more bends and the longer the duct, the
less air will circulate through the machine,
which will impede drying performance. We
recommend that you cut off any excess ex-
haust duct and run the duct with as few bends
as possible. And make any necessary bends
as gentle as possible.
Note
Maximum duct length of 60 feet and 4 elbows
is allowed. Subtract 4 feet of duct for each
90° elbow. If more than 20 feet of duct is
needed, the diameter must be increased to
6" or 8" (152 mm or 203 mm).
Note
When installing in warm climates (77° F and
above) with high humidity levels, do not route
the air exhaust duct upwards.
