Failure to follow all of the safety warnings in this
manual could result in property damage, injury to

Your new dryer is shipped to vent to the rear. It can also
be configured to vent to the bottom or side (right-side
venting is not available on gas models).
An adapter kit, part number 383EEL9001B, may be
purchased from your LG retailer. This kit contains the
necessary duct components to change the dryer vent
location.

out the exhaust duct.
2. Press the tabs on the knockout and carefully remove
the knockout for the desired vent opening (right-
side venting is not available on gas models). Press the
adapter duct onto the blower housing and secure to
the base of the dryer as shown.
