• Never terminate the exhaust into a common duct
with a kitchen exhaust: a combination of lint and
grease could create a fire hazard.
• Do not obstruct incoming or exhausted air.
This dryer comes ready for rear exhausting. If
space is limited, use the "Dryer Exhaust to Left or
Bottom of Cabinet" instructions to exhaust directly
from the left side or bottom of the cabinet.

Using Flexible Metal Ducts
If rigid all-metal duct cannot be used, then flexible
all-metal venting can be used, but it will reduce the
maximum recommended duct length. In special
installations when it is impossible to make connec-
tion with the above recommendations, UL-listed
clothes dryer transition duct may be used as
transition venting between the dryer and wall
connection only. The use of this ducting will affect
dry time.
If flexible transition duct is necessary, you must
adhere to the following directions:
• Use the shortest duct length possible.
• Stretch the duct to its maximum length.
• Do not crush or collapse the duct.
• Never use transition duct inside the wall or
inside the dryer.
• Avoid resting the duct on sharp objects.
• Venting must conform to local building codes.
