Periscope Installation (for use with dryer vent to wall vent 
mismatch):

18" (457 mm)
Part Number 4396011 - for mismatch of 18" (457 mm) to 
29" (737 mm)
Part Number 4396014 - for mismatch of 29" (737 mm) to

Special provisions for 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.

Install Vent System
1. Before installing the vent system, be sure to remove the wire 
exhaust guard that is located at the exhaust outlet.
2. Install exhaust hood. Use caulking compound to seal exterior wall 
opening around exhaust hood.
3. Connect vent to exhaust hood. Vent must fit inside exhaust hood. 
Secure vent to exhaust hood with 4" (102 mm) clamp.
4. Run vent to dryer location. Use the straightest path possible. See 
“Determine vent length.” Avoid 90º 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, because 
they can catch lint.
Install Cord Bracket and Casters
Do not move dryer into its final location until the following steps have 
been performed.
Install cord bracket
1. Remove tape from power cord and rear panel.
