Not for use in Canada.
DONOTuse for Mobile Home Installations.
NOTfor use on new construction.
NOTfor use on recreational vehicles.
NOTfor use in ureas where local codes prohibit grounding
through the neutral conduction.
!. Turn off the circuit breaker(s) (30 amp) or remove the
dryer's circuit fuse at the electrical box.

A. Connect the 2 hot lines to the outer screws of the
terminal block (marked L! and L2).
B.Connect the neutral (white) line to the center of
the terminal block (marked N).

_] EXHAUST INFORMATION
, WARN ING -IN CANADA AND IN THE
UNITED STATES,THE REQUIRED EXHAUST DUCT
DIAMETER IS4 in(102mm).DO NOT USE DUCT
LONGER THAN SPECIFIEDINTHE EXHAUST
LENGTH TABLE.
Usingexhaust longer than specified length will:
, Increasethe drying times and the energycost.
, Reducethe dryer life.
, Accumulate lint, creating a potential fire hazard.
Thecorrect exhaust installation isYOURRESPONSIBILITY.
Problems due to incorrect installation are not covered by
the warranty.
Removeand discard existing plastic or metal foil transition
duct and replacewith ULlisted transition duct.
The MAXIMUM ALLOWABLEduct length and number of
bends of the exhaust system depends upon the type of
duct, number of turns, the type of exhaust hood (wallcap),
and all conditions noted below.The maximum duct length
for rigid metal duct isshown inthe table below.

, Forevery extra 90° elbow,reduce the allowable vent system
length by 10ft.
, Two 45°elbows will betreated likeone 90°elbow.
, Forthe side exhaust installations,add one 90° elbow to the
chart.
, Thetotal vent system lengthincludes allthe straight portions
and elbows of the system (transitionduct included).
EXHAUST SYSTEM CHECK LIST
HOOD ORWALL CAP
, Terminate in a manner to prevent back drafts or entry
of birds or other wildlife.
, Termination should present minimal resistance to
the exhaust air flow and should require little or no
maintenance to prevent clogging.
, Never install a screen in or over the exhaust duct. This
could cause lint build up.
, Wall caps must be installed at least 12 in.aboveground
levelor any other obstruction with the opening pointed
down.
SEPARATIONOFTURNS
For best performance, separate all turns by at least 4 ft.
of straight duct, including distance between last turn and
exhaust hood.
TURNSOTHERTHAN 90°
, One turn of 450 or less may be ignored.
, Two 450turns should be treated as one 900 turn.
, Eachturn over 450 should be treated as one 900 turn.
