STEP 3 - CONNECT TO AN EXHAUST SYSTEM

To reduce the risk of re, this dryer must be exhausted outdoors.
1. Make sure that the exhaust system is free and clear of old lint accumulation prior
to connecting the dryer.
2. Use 4" (102 mm) rigid or flexible metal ducting to connect the dryer exhaust
outlet to the exhaust system.
3. Use clamps to seal and secure all joints. Exhaust ducting must not be connected
with screws or other fastening devices which extend into the interior of the duct.
NOTES:
•
Do not use plastic or metal foil flexible ducting. Excessive lint can build up inside
the ductwork, restrict airflow, and create a fire hazard. Restricted airflow will
increase drying time.
•
The dryer shall not be exhausted into a chimney, a wall, a ceiling, an attic, a crawl
space, or a concealed space of a building.
•
The dryer must be exhausted to the outdoors. If the dryer is not exhausted
outdoors, some fine lint will be expelled into the laundry area. An accumulation
of lint in any area of the home can create a health and fire hazard.
