before it is used. If you did not receive an Installation Instructions sheet, you can receive one by
visiting ge.com, or by calling 800.GE.CARES (800.432.2737).
I Properly ground dryer to conform with all
governing codes and ordinances. Follow details
in Installation Instructions.
I Install or store where it will not be exposed to
temperatures below freezing or exposed to
the weather.
I Connect to a properly rated, protected and sized
power supply circuit to avoid electrical overload.
I Remove the colored protective film from both
the control panel and the door.
I Remove all sharp packing items and dispose
of all shipping materials properly.
I Do not remove the vent protector from the
back of the dryer (on some models).
I Pull the protector out and down to its lowest
position and connect the exhaust duct to the
dryer. The lowered protector will prevent the
duct from getting crushed (on some models).
Exhaust/Ducting:
Dryers MUST be exhausted to the outside to
1
prevent large amounts of moisture and lint
from being blown into the room.
Use only rigid metal or flexible metal 4"
2
diameter ductwork inside the dryer cabinet or

OR OTHER COMBUSTIBLE DUCTWORK CAN
CAUSE A FIRE. PUNCTURED DUCTWORK CAN
CAUSE A FIRE IF IT COLLAPSES OR BECOMES
OTHERWISE RESTRICTED IN USE OR DURING
