Fire Hazard

Only dry fabrics that have been washed with water°

Do not use heat to dry articles containing foam rubber or similarly textured rubber4ike materia[so Dry on the Air Dry cydeo

To reduce the risk of fire in a tumble dryer the following should be observed:

Do not pJace items in a tumbJe dryer that have prevJousJy been cJeaned in, washed in, soaked

in, or spot cJeaned with f[ammabJe [iquids or soJids. They are a fire or expJosJon hazard.

HJghJy fJammabJe substances commonly used in domestic environments [ncJude acetone,

denatured a[coho[, gasoJine, kerosene, some brands of spot removers and dry cJeanJng soJvents, turpentine, waxes, wax removers, vegetabJe oil, fish oi[, massage oi[, and cooking oil

Do not leave hot oi[-affected items in a pJJeor stack. This can prevent heat from escaping and

can create a fire hazard. Oil-affected items can ignite spontaneously, especially when exposed to heat sources such as a tumbJe dryer. The items become warm causing an oxidation reaction

in the oil This oxidation creates heat. If the heat cannot escape the items can become hot

enough to catch fire.

Do not use heat to dry items containing rubber, foam rubber, pJastJc or similar materJaJs, (such

as padded bras, bath mats, rugs, bibs, baby pants, pJastJc bags, pJ[Jows etc), as these materials

might meJt or burn. Some rubber materiaJs when heated can under certain circumstances

produce fire by spontaneous combustion. Dry onJy on the AiR DRY cycJe.

UnJess specJficaJ[y recommended by their manufacturer, do not use fabric softeners or similar

products in a tumbJe dryer.

Do not store or use gasoJine or other flammabJe gases and liquids near this or any other

appJiance.

Keep the area around and underneath your dryer free from the accumuJatJon of combustJbJe

materials such as lint, paper, rags, chemJcaJs etc.

Do not store any items that may burn or meJt (such as paper materials, pJastJcs or pJastJc

containers etc) next to the dryer.

Empty the lint bucket before the lint reaches the top of the transparent section (usually once a

week). The dryer must be exhausted to the outside. CarefuJ[y foJ[ow the venting details in the

[nstaJJat[on instructions.

Keep the floor around your dryer dean and dry to reduce the possibility of slipping.

if your dryer is running and you want to unload or add clothes, press START/PAUSE and wait

until the machine has unlocked the lid. Do not force it open.

A clothes dryer produces combustible lint and must be exhausted outdoorsoTake care to prevent the accumulation of Hnt around the exhaust opening and in the surrounding area°

Fire Hazard

The dryer must be vented to the outdoors.

Use rigid or thick wall flexiMe metal exhaust duct° Do not use a plastic exhaust duct°

Do not use a meta_ foil exhaust duct° Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or fire°

The dryer must be exhausted to the outdoors. This w[[[ prevent the build up of lint and moisture

in the room in which it islocated and reduce the risk of fire.

This appliance must always be vented to the outdoors.

Exhaust ducting products can be purchased from your local Appliance store or Hardware store.

Plastic or metal foil flexible duct can kink, sag, be punctured, reduce airflow, extend drying times and affect dryer operation.

A minimum of 4 inch (100 mm) thick wail flexible metal or rigid galvanised metal duct must be

used. Using ducts larger than 4 inches (100 ram) diameter may result in more lint accumulating.

Using straight rigid metal ducting will minimize lint accumulation. Thick wall flexible metal ducting may be used but care must be exercised to avoid sharp bends which may squash the duct and cause blockages. Do not use plastic ducting or thin wail flexible metal ducting.

Use duct tape to secure joints. Do not use screws as they collect [int.

Keep ducting as short and straight as possible. Do not exceed the maximum exhaust duct

lengths stated later in these installation instructions.

Do not exhaust the dryer into any other duct, chimney or gas vent, a wail, a ceiling or any concealed space in a building. Do not exhaust the dryer under a house or mobile home or a

porch, or into a window well or other area that wi[[ accumulate [int.

The exhaust duct should end with an exhaust hood with a

swing out damper to prevent back drafts and entry of wild

life. Never use exhaust hoods with a magnetic damper. The

hood should have at least 12 inches (305 ram) clearance

between the bottom of the hood and the ground or other obstruction. The hood opening should point down. Never

install a screen over the exhaust outlet.

Installation instructions

Exha u sting

To reduce condensation, insulate any ducting which passes through unheated areas. Slope the duct gently downwards to the hood, to drain condensation and reduce lint build up. Avoid sag :[i or loops in the duct as they may collect and store water and accumulate lint.

tefore using an existing exhaust duct system for a dryer ensure that:

No phstic or other potentially combustible duct or flexible metal foil ducting has been used.

= The duct is not pierced, kinked or crushed. = The duct does not exceed the maximum recommended length for the new dryer. = The exhaust hood damper opens and closes freely and with suffident movement. = Static pressure in the exhaust ducting does not exceed 1 inch (250Pa), or is not less than 0

inches of water column (ie. negative pressure), when measured with a manometer in the first 6

inches of the duct, with the dryer running on Air Dry (no heat)setting. The exhaust duct system meets all relevant local, state and national codes.

All ducting should be inspected and cleaned at least once a year to remove accumulated lint.

Frequently check that the damper on the exhaust hood moves sufficiently and opens and

shuts freely.
