4 Important Safety Information

WARNING

RISK OF FIRE

•Ensure the entire dryer exhaust system is clean and free of lint and debris prior to the installation of your new dryer. The entire exhaust system should be inspected and cleaned a minimum of every 18 months with normal usage. Failure to comply with cleaning your exhaust system will increase the RISK of FIRE.

•DO NOT install a clothes dryer with flexible plastic or flexible foil venting material. 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.

•DO NOT screen the exhaust ends of the vent system, or use any screws, rivets or other fasteners that extend into the duct to assemble the exhaust system. NO screen or grate of any mesh size is allowed to cover the outdoor exhaust opening.

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

•Clothes dryer installation and service must be performed by a qualified installer, service agency or the gas supplier.

•The electrical service to the dryer must conform with local codes and ordinances and the latest edition of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, or in Canada, the Canadian Electrical Code CSA C22.1 part 1.

•The gas service to the dryer must conform with local codes and ordinances and the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, or in Canada, the Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code, CSA B149.1. An individual manual shutoff valve must be installed within 6 ft. (1.83 m) of the dryer in accordance with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54.

•DO NOT stack a dryer on top of washer already installed on pedestal. DO NOT stack washer on top of dryer. DO NOT stack washer on top of another washer.

•The dryer is designed under ANSI Z21.5.1/CSA 7.1 or UL 2158 - CAN/CSA C22.2 No. 112 (latest editions) for HOME USE only. This dryer is not recommended for commercial applications such as restaurants, beauty salons, etc.

•Destroy the carton and plastic bags after the dryer is unpacked. Children might use them to play. Cartons covered with rugs, bedspreads, or plastic sheets can become airtight chambers causing suffocation. Place all materials in a garbage container or make materials inaccessible to children.

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

The instructions in this manual and all other literature included with this dryer are not meant to cover every possible condition and situation that may occur. Good safe practice and caution MUST be applied when installing, operating and maintaining any appliance.

WARNING

For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire or explosion or to prevent property damage, personal injury or loss of life. DO NOT store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.

Important Safety Information 5

Definitions

This is the safety alert symbol. It is used to alert you to potential personal injury hazards. Obey all safety messages that follow this symbol to avoid possible injury or death.

DANGER

DANGER indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.

WARNING

WARNING indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.

CAUTION

CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury.

IMPORTANT

Indicates installation, operation, or maintenance information which is important but not hazard-related.

WARNING

FIRE HAZARD

To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or injury to persons when using this dryer, comply with the basic warnings listed below. Failure to comply with the Important Safety Instruction warnings could result in property damage, serious personal injury, or death.

Prevent fire

•DO NOT dry items that have been previously cleaned in, soaked in, or spotted with gasoline, cleaning solvents, kerosene, waxes, or other flammable or explosive substances. DO NOT store these items on or near the dryer. These substances give off vapors that could ignite or explode.

•DO NOT place items exposed to cooking oils in your dryer. Items contaminated with cooking oils may contribute to a chemical reaction that could cause a load to catch fire. To reduce the risk of fire due to contaminated loads, the final part of a tumble dryer cycle occurs without heat (cool down period). Avoid stopping a tumble dryer before the end of the drying cycle unless all items are quickly removed and spread out so that the heat is dissipated.

•DO NOT dry articles containing rubber, plastic or similar materials such as bras, galoshes, bath mats, rugs, bibs, baby pants, plastic bags and pillows that may melt or burn. Some rubber materials, when heated, can under certain circumstances produce fire by spontaneous combustion.

•DO NOT operate the dryer if the lint screen is blocked, damaged or missing. Fire hazard, overheating and damage to fabrics can occur.

•DO NOT obstruct the flow of ventilating air. DO NOT stack or place laundry or throw rugs against the front or back of the dryer.

WARNING

FIRE HAZARD

Clean the lint screen before or after each load. The interior of the dryer, lint screen housing and exhaust duct should be cleaned approximately every 18 months by qualified service professional. An excessive amount of lint build-up in these areas could result in inefficient drying and possible fire. See

Care and Cleaning.

WARNING

FIRE HAZARD

A clothes dryer produces combustible lint. The dryer must be connected to an outdoor exhaust. Regularly inspect the outdoor exhaust opening and remove any accumulation of lint around the opening and in the surrounding area.

•DO NOT spray any type of aerosol into, on or near dryer at any time.

6 Important Safety Information

•DO NOT use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static unless recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric softener or product.

WARNING

DO NOT continue to use the dryer if you hear squeaking, grinding, rubbing or other unusual noises. This could be a sign of mechanical breakdown and lead to fire

or serious injury. Contact a qualified technician immediately.

•Failure to comply with these warnings could result in fire, explosion, serious bodily injury and/or damage to the dryer.

Protect children

•DO NOT allow children to play on or in the dryer. Close supervision of children is necessary when the dryer is used near children. As children grow, teach them the proper, safe use of all appliances.

•Destroy the carton, plastic bag and other packing materials after the dryer is unpacked. Children might use them for play. Cartons covered with rugs, bedspreads or plastic sheets can become airtight chambers.

•Keep laundry products out of children’s reach. To prevent personal injury, observe all warnings on product labels.

•Before the dryer is removed from service or discarded, remove the dryer door to prevent accidental entrapment.

•Failure to comply with these warnings could result in serious personal injuries.

Risk of child entrapment

Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned washers and dryers are still dangerous – even if they will sit for “just a few days”. If you are getting rid of your old washer or dryer, please follow the instructions below to help prevent accidents.

We strongly encourage responsible appliance recycling/disposal methods. Contact your State/Provence Energy Office, Local Electric and Water Utilities or Conservation Program Office or visit www.energystar.gov/recycle for more information on recycling your old washer or dryer.

Before you throw away your old washer or dryer:

•Remove doors

Prevent injury

•To prevent shock hazard and assure stability during operation, the dryer must be installed and electrically grounded by a qualified service person in accordance with local codes. Installation instructions are included in this manual for reference. Refer to the installation sections for detailed grounding procedures. If the dryer is moved to a new location, have it checked and reinstalled by a qualified service professional.

•To prevent personal injury or damage to the dryer, the electrical power cord of a gas dryer must be plugged into a

properly grounded and polarized 3-prong outlet. The third grounding prong must never be removed. Never ground the dryer to a gas pipe. DO NOT use an extension cord or an adaptor plug.

•ALWAYS disconnect the dryer from the electrical supply before attempting any service or cleaning. Failure to do so can result in electrical shock or injury.

•DO NOT use any type of spray cleanser when cleaning dryer interior. Hazardous fumes or electrical shock could occur.

•To prevent injury, DO NOT reach into the dryer if the drum is moving. Wait until the dryer has stopped completely before reaching into the drum.

Prevent injury and damage to the dryer

•All repairs and servicing must be performed by an authorized service provider unless specifically recommended in this Use & Care Guide. Use only authorized factory parts.

•DO NOT tamper with controls.

•DO NOT sit on, step on or stand on the dryer. DO NOT rest heavy loads on top. The dryer is not meant to support weight.

•DO NOT install or store the dryer where it will be exposed to water and/or to the weather.

Important Safety Information 7

•Thermal limiter switches automatically turn off the motor in the unlikely event of an overheated situation. A service technician must replace the thermal

limiter switch(es) after correcting the fault.

•Failure to comply with these warnings could result in serious personal injuries.
