CHECKING YOUR VENT
Your dryer must be properly installed and vented to achieve maximum drying efficiency and
shorten drying times. Use the minimum recommended installation clearances (found in your
Installation Instructions) to avoid blocking the flow of combustion and ventilation air. Install
your dryer in a well-ventilated room where the temperature is always above 451F (71C). Also
make sure that your dryer is leveled. Refer to your installation Instructions for more
information.
