Risk of Fire: WARNING
1. Clothes dryer installation must be performed by a qualified installer.
2. Install the clothes dryer according to the manufacturer’s instructions and local
codes.
3. Do not install a clothes dryer with flexible plastic venting materials. If flexible
metal (foil type) duct is installed, it must be of a specific type identified by
the appliance manufacturer as suitable for use with clothes dryers. Flexible
venting materials are known to collapse, be easily crushed and trap lint. The
conditions will obstruct clothes dryer airflow and increase the risk of fire.
4. To reduce the risk of severe injury or death, follow all installation instructions.

Safety Warning:
1. Before starting installation, make sure that the gas shut off valve is in
