EXHAUST DIRECTION
All dryers shipped from the factory are set up for rear exhausting. However, on
electric dryers, exhausting can be to the right or left side of the cabinet or the
bottom of the dryer. On gas dryers, exhausting can be to the right side of the
cabinet or the bottom of the dryer. Directional exhausting can be accomplished
by installing Exhaust Kit, P/N 131456800, available through your parts distribu-
tor. Follow the instructions supplied with the kit.
