OF FIRE OR PERSONAL INJURY:
• This dryer must be exhausted to the outdoors.
• Use only metal duct.
• Do not terminate exhaust in a chimney, any gas vent,
under an enclosed floor (crawl space), or into an attic.
The accumulated lint could create a fire hazard.
• Provide an access for inspection and cleaning of the
exhaust system, especially at turns. Inspect and clean at
