Your dryer provides sensor drying and time drying programs.

Sensor Dry

The dryer senses the dampness of the laundry and automatically determines the heat level and operation time. You might see a sudden increase or decrease in operation time if the sensor determines more or less drying is required. This is not a malfunction.

Time Dry

Use TIME DRY to select heat level and drying time manually. This can be used if clothes are not as dry as you like them at the end of the cycle. Use TIME DRY for heavy and bulky items and thick work.

[GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS]

A. For a grounded, cord-connected appliance:

This appliance must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current. This appliance must be equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance. If it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

B. For a permanently connected appliance:

This appliance must be connected to a grounded metal, permanent wiring system; or an equipment-grounding conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and connected to the equipment-grounding terminal or lead on the appliance.

WARNING!

Improper connection of the equipment grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service representative or personnel if you are in doubt as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.

California Safe Drinking W ater and Toxic Enfor cement Act

Gas appliances can cause minor exposure to four of these substances, namely benzene, carbon monoxide, formaldehyde and soot, caused primarily by the incomplete combustion of natural gas or LP fuels. Properly adjusted dryers will minimize combustion. Exposure to these substances can be minimized further by properly venting the dryer to the outdoors. Do not allow children to play on or in the appliance. Close supervision of children is necessary when the appliance is used near children.

WARNING!

• Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away from the dryer.

• Place dryer at least 18 inches above the floor for a garage installation.

• Failure to do so can result in death, explosion or fire.

PART 2

INITIAL STEPS FOR INSTALLING Y OUR DR YER

STEP 1. Positioning the Dryer.

• Clothes dryer installation must be performed by a qualified installer.

• Install the clothes dryer according to the manufacturer’s instructions and local codes.

• Do not install a clothes dryer with flexible plastic venting materials. If flexible metal (foil type) duct is installed, it must be of a specific type identified by the appliance manufacturer as suitable for use with clothes dryers. Flexible venting materials are known to collapse, be easily crushed, and trap lint. These conditions will obstruct clothes dryer airflow and increase the risk of fire.

• To reduce the risk of severe injury or death, follow all installation instructions.

• Save these instructions.

Minimum clearances on above, behind, and sides of the unit, as sho wn below, are required.

Those required minimum clearances are set forth in the picture below. Please keep the following instructions in mind when installing in a closet or recessed area:

• Consider allowing additional clearance for installation and servicing.

• Wall, door and floor molding may necessitate additional clearances.

• Additional inches of clearance are recommended to reduce noise while operating.

• Consider the space needed for companion appliances.

• For closet installations, the picture below shows the minimum required ventilation openings for the door. A louvered door with comparable ventilation openings is also acceptable.

Once in position, adjust the leveling legs of the dryer until it is level from left to right and front to back. The leveling legs must remain firmly on the floor and the dryer should not rock. The maximum slope of the dryer from left to right or front to back should not exceed 2.5 cm (1 inch). If the dryer is not level, and if the slope exceeds

2.5 cm (1 inch), a load may not tumble properly and internal sensors may malfunction.

■ ALTERNATE EXHAUST DIRECTIONS

1. Remove screw and exhaust duct.

2-1. Detach and remove the knock out that

matches the desired venting direction

(Right side not available on Gas Dryers)

2-2. Reconnect the new duct[8.66 inch(22cm)]

to the blower housing, and fixing the duct to the base.

3-1. Insert the male end of a 4" elbow into the

female end of a short duct. Tape the joint.

3-2. Insert this assembly elbow first through

the hole in the dryer and push the female end of the elbow onto the male end of the blower output shaft. T ape the joint.

STEP 3. Connection of Gas Supply

(Gas dryer only). In addition to the following, please refer to manual section on Gas Requirements and Instructions.

1. New stainless steel flexible connector. Use this type of connector only if allowed by local codes. Use Design AGA Certified Connector.

2. 1/8" NPT Pipe Plug (for checking inlet gas pressure)

3. Equipment Shut-Off Valve Installed within 6’ (1.8 m) of dryer.

4. Iron Pipe. Shorter than 20’ (6.1 m) Use 3/8" pipe. Longer than 20’ (6.1 m) - Use 1/2" pipe.

5. 3/8" N.P.T. Gas Connection.

1. Confirm that the type of gas available in your laundry room is appropriate for the dryer. The dryer is prepared for Natural Gas with a 3/8" NPT gas connector.

2. Remove the shipping cap on the gas connector at the back of the dryer. Make sure that you don’t damage the threads of the gas connection pipe when you remove the shipping cap.

3. Connect the dryer to your laundry room’s gas supply using a new flexible stainless steel connector (as noted below, use a new stainless steel flexible connector if allowed by your local codes).

4. Securely tighten all connections between the dryer and your laundry room’s gas supply. Turn on your laundry room’s gas (both supply and check all pipe connections internal and external) for gas leaks with a non-corrosive leak detection fluid.

5. For LP (Liquefied Petroleum) gas connection, refer to this manual’s section entitled Gas Requirements and Instructions.

NOTE:

Make sure the burner orifice is proper for the type of gas you have. For instance, using LPG with LNG orifice will result in death, fire or explosion. Or using LNG with LPG nozzle will not allow the burner to ignite. If needed, orifice conversion should be done by a qualified service technician and mark or put the label of the current type of orifice on the dryer. If changing the orifice, also adjust the gas valve.
