DRYER VENTING REQUIREMENTS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, this dryer MUST BE

EXHAUSTED OUTDOORS. IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes and ordinances. Dryer exhaust must not be connected into any gas vent, chimney, wall, ceiling, attic, crawlspace, or a concealed space of a building. Only rigid or flexible metal vent shall be used for exhausting. ■ Only a 4" (102 mm) heavy, metal exhaust vent and clamps may be used. ■ Do not use plastic or metal foil vent. Rigid metal vent: ■ Recommended for best drying performance and to avoid crushing and kinking. Flexible metal vent: (Acceptable only if accessible to clean) ■ Must be fully extended and supported in final dryer location. ■ Remove excess to avoid sagging and kinking that may result in reduced airflow and poor performance. ■ Do not install in enclosed walls, ceilings, or floors. ■ The total length should not exceed 7

ft. (2.4 m). NOTE: If using an existing vent system, clean lint from entire length of the system and make sure exhaust hood is not plugged with lint. Replace plastic or metal foil vents with rigid metal or flexible metal vents. Review “Vent System Chart” and if necessary, modify existing vent system to achieve best drying performance.

(102 mm) 4" (102 mm) Heavy, metal exhaust vent Elbows: ■ 45° elbows provide better airflow than 90° elbows. Clamps: ■ Use clamps to seal all joints. ■ Exhaust vent must not be connected or secured with screws or other fastening devices that extend into interior of duct and catch lint. Do not use duct tape.

Provision must be made for enough air for combustion and ventilation. (Check governing codes and ordinances.) See “Recessed Area Installation Instructions” in the “Location Requirements” sections. A 4" (102 mm) outlet hood is preferred. However, a 2

" (64 mm) outlet exhaust hood may be used. A 2

" (64 mm) outlet creates greater back pressure than other hood types. For permanent installation, a stationary vent system is required. Connect Vent

1. If connecting to existing vent, make sure the vent is clean.

2. Using a 4" (102 mm) clamp, connect vent to exhaust outlet

in dryer. NOTE: Do not remove vent collar. Vent System Length

3. Tighten hose clamp with Phillips screwdriver.

4. Make sure the vent is secured to exhaust hood with

a 4" (102 mm) clamp.

5. Move dryer into final position. Do not crush or kink vent.

Make sure dryer is level. 12" min. (305 mm) Vent collar16 The outside end of main vent should have a sweep elbow directed downward. If main vent travels vertically through the roof, rather than through wall, install a 180° sweep elbow on end of vent at least 2 ft. (610 mm) above surface of roof. The opening in wall or roof shall have a diameter 1⁄2" (13 mm) larger than vent diameter. Vent should be centered in opening. Do not install screening over end of vent for best performance. 12" min. (305 mm)* A main vent can be used for venting a group of dryers. The main vent should be sized to remove 5663 l/min. (200 CFM) of air per dryer. Large-capacity lint screens of proper design may be used in main vent if checked and cleaned frequently. The room where the dryers are located should have make-up air equal to or greater than CFM of all the dryers in the room. Back-draft Damper Kit, Part No. 3391910, is available from your distributor and should be installed in the vent of each dryer to keep exhausted air from returning into dryers and to keep exhaust in balance within main vent. Unobstructed return air openings are required. Each vent should enter the main vent at an angle pointing in the direction of the airflow. Vents entering from the opposite side should be staggered to reduce the exhausted air from interfering with the other vents. The maximum angle of each vent entering the main vent should be no more than 30.° Keep air openings free of dry cleaning fluid fumes. Fumes create acids which, when drawn through the dryer heating units, can damage dryers and items being dried. A clean-out cover should be located on the main vent for periodic cleaning of the vent system. If an Exhaust Hood Cannot be Used Multiple Dryer Venting

Connect wrist strap to green ground connection point or unpainted metal in the appliance. -OR- Touch your finger repeatedly to a green ground connection point or unpainted metal in the appliance. ■ Before removing the part from its package, touch the anti-static bag to a green ground connection point or unpainted metal in the appliance. ■ Avoid touching electronic parts or terminal contacts; handle electronic control assembly by edges only. ■ When repackaging failed electronic control assembly in anti-static bag, observe above instructions.Accumulator PricingIf the price is set to one coin 1, then accumulator pricing is in effect (Fixed Cycle with Top Off option must also be selected). Cycle time can be purchased one coin at a time up to the maximum time. All money will be credited to a cycle with a single button press while in accumulator pricing.Fixed Cycle With Top Off PricingA dryer set to offer “Top Off” capability will allow time to be added to an existing dry cycle in increments equal to the number of minutes of dry time per quarter (coin 1), up to the maximum minutes, regardless of the cost required to start the dryer. No credit is given for coins or debit inputs entered when the control is displaying the maximum minutes.Penny increment offset is not applied to top off purchases.FREE CYCLES – This is established by setting the cycle price to zero. When this happens, “SELECT CYCLE” will appear rather than a cycle price. Any cycle started as a free cycle will automatically terminate when the door is opened.DEBIT CARD READY – This dryer is debit card ready. It will accept a variety of debit card systems, but does NOT come with a debit card reader. Refer to the debit card reader manufacturer for proper dryer setup. In models converted to a Generation 1 debit card system, debit pulses represent the equivalent of one coin (coin 1). Display Once the unit has been plugged in and the dryer door opened and closed, the display will show the price. PRICE
