Specialprovisionsfor mobile home installations
The exhaust vent must be securely fastened to a noncombustible
portion of the mobile home structure and must not terminate
beneath the mobile home. Terminate the exhaust vent outside.
Determine vent path
• Select the route that will provide the straightest and most
direct path outdoors.
• Plan the installation to use the fewest number of elbows and
turns.
• When using elbows or making turns, allow as much room as
possible.
• Bend vent gradually to avoid kinking.
• Use the fewest 90 ° turns possible.
Determine vent length and elbows needed for best
drying performance
• Use the Vent system chart below to determine type of vent
material and hood combinations acceptable to use.
NOTE: Do not use vent runs longer than those specified in
the Vent system chart. Exhaust systems longer than those
specified will:
• Shorten the life of the dryer.
• Reduce performance, resulting in longer drying times and
increased energy usage.
The Vent system chart provides venting requirements that will
help to achieve the best drying performance.
Vent system chart
NOTE: Side exhaust installations add a 90 ° turn inside the
Laundry Center. To determine maximum exhaust length, add one
90 ° turn to the chart.

Install exhaust hood. Use caulking compound to seal exterior
wall opening around exhaust hood.
Connect vent to exhaust hood. Vent must fit inside exhaust
hood. Secure vent to exhaust hood with 4" (102 mm) clamp.
Run vent to dryer location. Use the straightest path possible.
See "Determine vent path" in "Plan Vent System." Avoid 90 °
turns. Use clamps to seal all joints. Do not use duct tape,
screws or other fastening devices that extend into the interior
of the vent to secure vent. Items sticking through the vent can
catch lint.

1. Using a 4" (102 mm) clamp, connect vent to exhaust outlet in
Laundry Center. If connecting to existing vent, make sure the
vent is clean. Dryer vent must fit over dryer exhaust outlet
and inside exhaust hood. Check that vent is secured to
exhaust hood with a 4" (102 mm) clamp.
2. Move Laundry Center to its final location. Avoid crushing or
kinking vent.
Le/e/Lau s@'y Cest@
Properly leveling your Laundry Center avoids excessive noise
and vibration.
1. Check levelness of Laundry Center by placing a level on the
top edge of washer, first side to side, then front to back.
2.
If Laundry Center is not level, prop up front with a wood block
and adjust feet up or down as necessary. Remove wood
block and lower Laundry Center. Repeat this step until
Laundry Center is level.
