enough space behind for the exhaust system.
-This dryer is factory-ready for the rear exhaust option. To exhaust out the bottom or left, use the
accessory exhaust kit. Instructions are included with the kit.
-Make sure the room in which the dryer is located has enough fresh air. The dryer must be located
where there are no air-flow obstructions.
-For gas dryers, adequate clearance must be maintained as noted on the data plate to ensure
adequate air for combustion and the proper dryer operation.

weather. The dryer area must be kept clear of combustible materials, gasoline, and other
flammable vapors and liquids. A dryer produces combustible lint. The area around the dryer
should be kept lint-free.
