For installations requiring a longer drain hose, have
a quali ed technician install a longer drain hose
(according to your model number) available from an
authorized parts distributor. For drain systems in the
oor, install a syphon break kit available from your local
hardware store.
Exhaust system requirements
If your present system is made up of plastic duct or metal foil duct, replace it
with a rigid or semi-rigid metal duct. Also, ensure the present duct is free of
any lint prior to installing dryer duct.
The following are speci c requirements for proper and safe opera-
tion of your dryer.
WARNING
FIRE HAZARD
Failure to follow these instructions can create excessive drying times and
re hazards.
WARNING
FIRE HAZARD
Do not install a clothes dryer with exible plastic or metal foil venting
materials. Flexible venting materials are known to collapse, be easily
crushed and trap lint. These conditions will obstruct clothes dryer air ow
and increase the risk of re.

Exhaust system requirements, continued
WARNING
FIRE HAZARD
A clothes dryer must be exhausted outdoors. Do not
exhaust dryer into a chimney, a wall, a ceiling, an attic,
a crawl space or any concealed space of a building. A
clothes dryer produces combustible lint. If the dryer is
not exhausted outdoors, some ne lint will be expelled
into the laundry area. An accumulation of lint in any
area of the home can create a health and re hazard.
WARNING
FIRE HAZARD
Exceeding the length of duct pipe or number of elbows
allowed in the “MAXIMUM LENGTH” charts can cause
an accumulation of lint in the exhaust system. Plugging
the system could create a re hazard, as well as
increase drying times.
WARNING
FIRE HAZARD
Do not allow combustible materials (for example:
clothing, draperies/curtains, paper) to come in
contact with exhaust system. The dryer MUST NOT
be exhausted into a chimney, a wall, a ceiling,
or any concealed space of a building which can
accumulate lint, resulting in a re hazard.
Do not screen the exhaust ends of the vent system,
or use any screws, rivets or other fasteners that
extend into the duct to assemble the exhaust
system. Lint can become caught in the screen, on
the screws or rivets, clogging the duct work and
creating a re hazard as well as increasing drying
times. Use an approved vent hood to terminate the
duct outdoors, and seal all joints with metal foil duct
tape. All male duct pipe ttings MUST be installed
downstream with the ow of air.
WARNING
FIRE HAZARD
Do not install exible plastic or exible foil venting
material.
If installing semi-rigid venting, do not exceed 8 ft.
(2.4 m) duct length.
8
Exhaust direction
The laundry center may be exhausted four (4) ways with
rear ush installation:
1. Straight back
2. Down (8 inch [20.3 cm] length of 4 inch diameter
[102 mm] rigid duct and 1 elbow down)
3. Left (8 inch [20.3 cm] length of 4 inch diameter [102
mm] rigid duct, 1 elbow down and 1 elbow left)
4. Right (8 inch [20.3 cm] length of 4 inch diameter
[102 mm] rigid duct, 1 elbow down and 1 elbow
right)
In installations where the exhaust system is not described
in the charts, the following method must be used to
determine if the exhaust system is acceptable:
1 Connect an inclined or digital manometer between
the dryer and the point the exhaust connects to the
dryer.
2 Set the dryer timer and temperature to air uff
(cool down) and start the dryer.
3 Read the measurement on the manometer.
4 The system back pressure MUST NOT be
higher than 0.6 inches of water column. If the
system back pressure is less than 0.6 inches of
water column, the system is acceptable. If the
manometer reading is higher than 0.6 inches of
water column, the system is too restrictive and the
installation is unacceptable.
Although vertical orientation of the exhaust system is
acceptable, certain extenuating circumstances could
affect the performance of the dryer:
Only rigid metal duct work should be used.
Venting vertically through a roof may expose the
exhaust system to down drafts causing an increase
in vent restriction.
Running the exhaust system through an
uninsulated area may cause condensation and
faster accumulation of lint.
Compression or crimping of the exhaust system will
cause an increase in vent restriction.
The exhaust system should be inspected and
cleaned a minimum of every 18 months with
normal usage. The more the dryer is used, the
more often you should check the exhaust system
and vent hood for proper operation.
Install male ttings in correct direction:
CORRECT
INCORRECT
Exhaust system requirements, continued
To exhaust up, add an 11 inch (28 cm) length of standard
4 inch (102 mm) diameter duct and a 90° elbow. The unit
will be positioned about 4.5 inches (11.5 cm) away from
the wall ( ush to wall exhausting may be done by going
below the dryer then sideways).
An exhaust hood positioned to line up with the dryer
exhaust can be installed directly through the outside wall.
To exhaust to the side or down, add an 8 inch (20.3 cm)
length of standard 4 inch (102 mm) diameter duct and a
90° elbow.

Connecting drain and electrical
CABLE TIE
1 Form a “U” shape on the end of the drain hose
with the hose pointed toward the drain. Place the
formed end in a laundry tub or a standpipe and
secure the drain hose with the cable tie (provided
in the enclosure package) to the standpipe, inlet
hose, laundry tub, etc. so the hose does not pull
out from the force of the water.
2 Plug the power cord into a grounded outlet.
3 Turn on the power at the circuit breaker/fuse box.
4 Read the
Use & Care Guide
provided with the
laundry center. It contains valuable and helpful
information that will save you time and money.
5 Run the washer through a complete cycle, checking
for water leaks and proper operation.
6 If you have any questions during initial operation,
please review the “Avoid Service Checklist” in your
Use & Care Guide before calling for service.
7 Place these instructions in a location near the
appliance for future reference.
IMPORTANT
Check to ensure the power is off at a circuit breaker/
fuse box before plugging the power cord into an outlet.
NOTE
The standpipe inside diameter must be 1-1/4” (3.2 cm)
minimum. There must be an air gap around the drain
hose in the standpipe. A snug hose t can cause a
siphoning action.
