• Install the clothes dryer according to these instructions and in

accordance with local codes.

California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act
This act requires the governor of California to publish a list of

substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other

reproductive harm and requires businesses to warn customers of

potential exposure to such substances. Gas appliances can cause

minor exposure to four of these substances, namely benzene,

carbon monoxide, formaldehyde and soot, caused primarily by the

incomplete combustion of natural gas or LP fuels. Properly adjusted

dryers will minimize incomplete combustion. Exposure to these

substances can be minimized further by properly venting the dryer

to the outdoors.

• This dryer must be exhausted to the outdoors.

• Use only rigid metal 4” diameter ductwork inside the dryer cabinet

and use only UL approved transition ducting between the dryer and

the home duct.
