IMPORTANT TO INSTALLER

Please Read The Following Instructions Carefully Before Starting To Install The Dryer. These Instructions

Should Be Retained For Future Reference.

REMOVE THE DOOR FROM ALL DISCARDED APPLIANCES SUCH AS

DRYERS TO AVOID THE DANGER OF A CHILD SUFFOCATING.

LOCATION CONSIDERATIONS

The dryer should be located to permit adequate room in front for loading the dryer, and sufficient room

behind the dryer for the exhaust system.

This dryer is factory-ready for rear exhaust. To exhaust out the bottom or left side, use the accessory

exhaust kit (see Accessories). Instructions are included with the kit.

It is important to make sure the room has adequate make-up air. The area where the dryer is located must

not obstruct the flow of combustion or ventilating air.

On gas dryers, adequate clearance as noted on the data plate must be maintained to insure adequate air

for combustion and proper operation of the dryer.

THE DRYER MUST NOT BE INSTALLED OR STORED IN AN AREA WHERE IT WILL BE

EXPOSED TO WATER AND/OR WEATHER. THE DRYER AREA IS TO BE KEPT CLEAR AND

FREE FROM COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS, GASOLINE AND OTHER FLAMMABLE VAPORS AND

LIQUIDS. A DRYER PRODUCES COMBUSTIBLE LINT. THE AREA AROUND THE DRYER

SHOULD BE KEPT FREE OF LINT.

ALCOVE OR CLOSET INSTALLATION

• An appliance installed in a closet shall have no other fuel-

burning appliance installed in the same closet.

•WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, this

dryer MUST BE EXHAUSTED TO THE

OUTDOORS. See EXHAUST INFORMATION

section.

• Minimum clearances between dryer cabinet and adjacent walls or other surfaces are:

2" front, 0" top, 0" either side and 2-3/8" rear.

• Closet front must have two unobstructed air openings combined total area 72 in2min., located 3 in

min. from top and bottom.

Louvered door with equivalent air opening is acceptable.

MOBILE HOME INSTALLATION

The installation of the dryer in mobile homes must conform to the Manufactured Home

Construction and Safety Standard Title 24 CFR, Part 32-80 {formerly the Federal standard for Mobile Home

Construction and Safety, Title 24, HUD (Part 280), 1975} for the United States,) or CSA Standards Z240

(for Canada). When installing a dryer in a mobile home, provisions for anchoring the dryer to the floor must

be made. An anchor bracket kit is available with instructions (see Accessories). Locate in an area that has

adequate make up air. A minimum of 72 in2(183 cm2) of unobstructed opening is required. All mobile home

installations must be exhausted to the outside with the exhaust duct termination securely fastened to the

mobile home structure, using materials that will not support combustion. The exhaust duct may not

terminate beneath the mobile home. See the section on exhausting for more information.

WARNING –

The dryer must

be exhausted to

the outside to

reduce the risk

of fire when

installed in an alcove or closet.

WARNING

NED7200TW-02033C 2007.9.6 10:22 AM Page 3

EXHAUSTING

Exhausting the dryer to the outside will prevent large amounts of lint and moisture from being blown

into the room.

In the United States:

• All dryers must be exhausted to the outside.

• Only rigid or flexible metal duct should be used for exhausting.

In Canada:

• All dryers must be exhausted to the outside.

Outside the U.S. and Canada:

• Refer to local codes.

DUCTING REQUIREMENTS

• Use A Minimum Of 4-inch (10.2 Cm) Diameter Rigid Aluminum Or Rigid Galvanized Steel Duct.

• Do not use smaller duct.

• Ducts larger than 4 inches (10.2 cm) in diameter can result in increased lint accumulation. Lint

accumulation should be cleaned regularly.

• If flexible metal duct must be used, use the type with a stiff sheet metal wall. Do not use flexible

duct with a thin foil wall. Serious blockage can result if flexible metal duct is bent too sharp.

• Never install any type of flexible duct in walls, ceilings or other concealed spaces.

• Keep exhaust duct as straight and short as possible.

• Secure joints with duct tape. Do not use screws.

• DO NOT EXHAUST DRYER INTO ANY WALL, CEILING, CRAWL SPACE OR A

CONCEALED SPACE OF A BUILDING, GAS VENT, ANY OTHER COMMON DUCT OR

CHIMNEY. THIS COULD CREATE A FIRE HAZARD FROM LINT EXPELLED BY THE DRYER.

• Plastic flexible duct can kink, sag, be punctured, reduce airflow, extend drying times and affect

dryer operation.

WARNING – plastic or nonmetal flexible duct presents a potential fire hazard.

NEVER USE PLASTIC OR NONMETAL FLEXIBLE DUCT.

If your existing ductwork is plastic, nonmetal or combustible, replace it with metal. Use only metal

exhaust duct that will not support combustion to insure the containment of exhaust air, heat and lint.

WARNING

NED7200TW-02033C 2007.9.6 10:22 AM Page 4

• Exhaust systems longer than recommended can extend drying times, affect machine operation

and may collect lint.

• The exhaust duct should end with an exhaust hood with a swing out damper to prevent back

drafts and entry of wildlife. Never use an exhaust hood with a magnetic damper.

• The hood should have at least 12 inches (30.5 cm) of clearance between the bottom of the

hood and the ground or other obstruction. The hood opening should point down.

Never install a screen over the exhaust outlet.

• When possible, do not exhaust the dryer directly into a window well in order to avoid lint build-

up. Do not exhaust under a house or porch.

• If exhaust ductwork must run through an unheated area, the duct should be insulated and slope

slightly down towards the exhaust hood to reduce condensation and lint build-up.

• Inspect and clean the interior or the exhaust system at least once a year. Disconnect electrical

service prior to cleaning.

• Frequently check to be sure the exhaust hood damper opens and closes freely.

If new dryer is installed into an existing exhaust system you must be sure:

• The exhaust system meets all local, state and national codes.

• That plastic flexible duct is not used.

• Inspect and clean all lint accumulation from the interior of the existing duct.

• The duct is not kinked or crushed.

• The exhaust hood damper opens and closes freely.

The static pressure in any exhaust system must not exceed 0.83

inches of water column, or be less than 0.

This can be measured with the dryer running with a manometer at the point where

the exhaust duct connects to the dryer. A no heat setting should be used.

The dryer tumbler should be empty and the lint filter clean.
