Stacking The Appliance; Venting The Dryer - LG DL 385 Series Owner's Manual

Stacking the Appliance

Tools Required
• Phillips screwdriver
Stacking Kit Installation
WARNING
• The weight of the appliance and the height of
installation make this stacking procedure too
risky for one person. Two or more people are
required when installing the stacking kit.
• Place the washer on a solid, stable, level floor
capable of supporting the weight of both
appliances.
• Do not stack the washer on top of the dryer.
• If appliances are already installed, disconnect
them from all power, water and drain
connections.
This stacking kit includes:
• Two (2) side rails
• One (1) front rail
• Four (4) screws
To ensure safe and secure installation, please
observe the following instructions.
1
Make sure the surface of the washer is clean
and dry. Remove paper backing from the tape
on one of the stacking kit side brackets.
2
Fit the side bracket to the side of the washer
top as shown. Firmly press the adhesive area
of the bracket to the washer surface. Secure
the side bracket to the washer with a screw on
the back side of the bracket. Repeat steps 1
and 2 to attach the other side bracket.
3
Place the appliance on top of the washer,
fitting the dryer feet into the side brackets as
illustrated. Avoid finger injuries; do not allow
fingers to be pinched between the washer
and the appliance. Slowly slide the appliance
toward the back of the washer until the side
bracket stoppers catch the dryer feet.
4
Insert the front rail between the bottom of
the appliance and the top of the washer. Push
the front rail toward the back of the washer
until it comes in contact with the side rail
stoppers. Install the two remaining screws to
secure the front rail to the side rails.

Venting the Dryer

WARNING
• Gas dryers MUST exhaust to the outdoors.
• To reduce the risk of fire, combustion, or
accumulation of combustible gases, DO NOT
exhaust dryer air into an enclosed and
unventilated area, such as an attic, wall, ceiling,
crawl space, chimney, gas vent, or concealed
space of a building.
• To reduce the risk of fire, DO NOT exhaust the
dryer with plastic or thin foil ducting.
• Do not exceed the recommended duct length
limitations noted in the chart. Failure to follow
these instructions may result in extended drying
times, fire or death.
• Do not crush or collapse ductwork.
• Do not allow ductwork to rest on or contact
sharp objects.
