Rigid metal vent
For best drying performance, rigid metal vents are
recommended.
Rigid metal vent is recommended to avoid crushing and
kinking.
Flexible metal vent
Flexible metal vents are acceptable only if accessible for
cleaning.
Flexible metal vent must be fully extended and supported
when the dryer is in its final location.
Remove excess flexible metal vent to avoid sagging and
kinking that may result in reduced airflow and poor
performance.
Do not install flexible metal vent in enclosed walls, ceilings or
floors.
Elbows
45° elbows provide better airflow than 90° elbows.
Good
Clamps
Use clamps to seal all joints.
Exhaust vent must not be connected or secured with screws
or other fastening devices that extend into the interior of the
duct. Do not use duct tape.

An exhaust hood should cap the vent to keep rodents and
insects from entering the home.
Exhaust hood must be at least 12" (30.5 cm) from the ground
or any object that may be in the path of the exhaust (such as
flowers, rocks or bushes, snow line, etc.).
Do not use an exhaust hood with a magnetic latch.
Improper venting can cause moisture and lint to collect
indoors, which may result in:
Moisture damage to woodwork, furniture, paint, wallpaper,
carpets, etc.
Housecleaning problems and health problems.

WARNING
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install
washer/dryer.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
To avoid floor damage, set washer/dryer onto cardboard before
moving across floor. Move washer/dryer close to its final location.
1. Do not cut yellow strap. Pull yellow strap firmly, until
completely removed from washer/dryer. There should be
2 cotter pins on the end of the shipping strap. Remove the
hang tag and pin from the vent pipe.
2. Tilt the washer/dryer forward. Move each of the 2 rear legs in
an up-down motion to check the self-adjusting leveling legs
for free movement. This is required for proper leveling. Gently
lower the washer/dryer to the floor.
3. Cut the shipping strap about 16" (40,6 cm) from the plug end.
Look for the words "CUT HERE." Discard end with cotter pins.
You will use the remaining piece of shipping strap to secure
the drain hose.
