WARNING RISK OF FIRE
• To reduce the risk of severe injury or death, follow all installation
instructions.
• Appliance installation must be performed by a qualified in-
staller.
• Install the appliance according to these instructions and in ac-
cordance with local codes. In the absence of local codes, instal-
lation must comply with National Fuel Gas Code, ANSIZ223.1/
NFPA 54 or the Canadian Natural Gas and Propane Installation
Code, CSA B149.1.
• California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act. This
act requires the governor of California to publish a list of sub-
stances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or
other reproductive harm and requires businesses to warn cus-
tomers of potential exposure to such substances. Gas appliances
can cause minor exposure to four of these substances, namely
benzene, carbon monoxide, formaldehyde and soot, caused pri-
marily by the incomplete combustion of natural gas or LP fuels.
Properly adjusted dryers will minimize incomplete combustion.

Exposure to these substances can be minimized further by prop-
erly venting the dryer to the outdoors.
• This appliance must be exhausted to the outdoors.
• Use only 4" rigid metal ducting for exhausting the appliance to
the outdoors.
• DO NOT install a clothes dryer with flexible plastic ducting ma-
terials. If flexible metal (semi-rigid or foil-type) duct is installed,
it must be UL listed and installed in accordance with the instruc-
tions found in the section "Connecting The Dryer To House Vent"
on this Use & Care Guide. Flexible venting materials are known
to collapse, be easily crushed, and trap lint. These conditions will
obstruct dryer airflow and increase the risk of fire.
• Do not install or store this appliance in any location where it
could be exposed to water and or weather.
• Save these instructions. (Installers: Be sure to leave these instruc-
tions with the customer).
