DRYER 9577/9588
The dryer is shipped from the factory vented out the back. With the optional vent
kit (Part # 3911EZ9131X), the dryer can be vented out either side (left side only
for gas dryers because of gas piping interference) or the bottom (through the
floor). It is important to remember the vent must exhaust to outside air. The dryer
cannot be vented into a garage, an attic, or a crawl space beneath a house or
trailer. Follow these steps to change the vent output direction.
