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 fi ne lint will be expelled
into the laundry area. An accumulation
of lint in any area of the home can
create a health and fi re hazard.
• The dryer must be connected to an
exhaust outdoors.
• Regularly inspect the outdoor exhaust
opening and remove any accumulation
of lint around the outdoor exhaust
opening and in the surrounding area.
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 any gas vent
a chimney, a wall, a ceiling, or any
concealed space of a building which
can accumulate lint, resulting in a fi 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. No
screen, grate, or guard
of any mesh
size is allowed
to cover the
exhaust opening.
Lint can become
caught in the screen,
grate, guard, or on the screws or
rivets, clogging the duct work and
creating a fi 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 tape. All male duct pipe fi ttings
MUST be installed downstream with the
fl ow of air.
