EXHAUST SYSTEM CONNECTIONS
Requirements and Instructions
WARNING
The following are specific requirements for proper and safe
operation of your dryer. Failure to follow these instructions can create
excessive drying times and fire hazards.
1. Do not use plastic flexible duct to exhaust the dryer. Excessive lint can build up
inside exhaust system and create a fire hazard and restrict air flow. Restricted air flow will increase dryer times. If your present system is made up of plastic duct or metal foil duct, replace it with a rigid or flexible metal duct. Ensure present duct is free of any lint prior to installing dryer duct.
2. If the dryer is not exhausted outdoors, some fine lint will be expelled into the
laundry area. An accumulation of lint in any area of the home can create a health and fire hazard. To reduce risk of fire, dryer MUST BE EXHAUSTED OUTDOORS.
3. Do not allow combustible material (for example: clothing, draperies/curtains,
paper) to come in contact with exhaust system. The dryer must not be exhausted into a chimney, a wall, a ceiling, or any concealed space of a building which can accumulate lint, resulting in a fire hazard.
4. Exceeding the length of duct pipe or number of elbows allowed in the
“Maximum Length” charts can cause an accumulation of lint in the exhaust system. Plugging the system could create a fire hazard, as well as increase drying times.
5. Do not screen the exhaust ends of the vent system, or use any screws or rivets
to assemble the exhaust system. Lint can become caught in the screen, on the screws or rivets, clogging the duct work and creating a fire hazard as well as increasing drying times. Use an approved vent hood to terminate the duct outdoors, and seal all joints with duct tape. All male duct pipe fittings must be installed downstream with the flow of air.
Explosion hazard: Do not install the dryer where gasoline or other flammables are kept or
stored. If the dryer is installed in a garage, it must be minimum of 18 inches (45.7 cm) above the floor. Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, fire or burns.
11
Materials
INSTALL MALE FITTINGS IN THE CORRECT DIRECTION
Use only 4 inch (10.2 cm) diameter (minimum) rigid or flexible metal duct and approved vent hood that has a swing-out damper hat open when the dryer is in operation. When the dryer stops, the dampers automatically close to prevent drafts and the entrance of insects and rodents. To avoid restricting the outlet, maintain a minimum of 12 inches (30.5 cm) clearance between the vent hood and the ground or any other obstruction. The vent flap should be able to move freely.
MAXIMUM EXHAUST LENGTH
EnglishEnglish

"
"
"
12
After installation is completed, the following method must be used to determine if the exhaust system is acceptable:
1. Connect an inclined or digital manometer between the dryer and the point the
exhaust connects to the dryer.
2. Set the dryer timer and temperature to air fluff (cool down) and start the dryer.
3. Read the measurement on the manometer.
4. The system back pressure must not be higher than 0.75 inches of water
column. If the system back pressure is less than 0.75 inches of water column, the system is acceptable. If the manometer reading is higher than 0.75 inches of water column, the system is too restrictive and the installation is unacceptable.
Although vertical orientation of the exhaust system is acceptable, certain extenuating circumstances could affect the performance of the dryer:
1. Only the rigid metal duct work should be used.
2. Venting vertically through a roof may expose the exhaust system to down
drafts causing an increase in vent restriction.
3. Running the exhaust system through an area not insulated may cause
condensation and faster accumulation of lint.
4. Compression or crimping of the exhaust system will cause an increase in
vent restriction.
The exhaust system should be inspected and cleaned a minimum of every 18 months with normal usage. The more the dryer is used, the more often you should check the exhaust system and vent hood for proper operation.

Drying Tips
Note: The average load will fill the drum
to tumble freely for even drying and less wrinkling.
If you overload the dryer, you may cause damage to motor because it will not handle overloads and the dryer may not start at all. You may have to remove some portion of clothes and dry that separately. Your clothes may be wrinkled and take long time to dry. This may not be an efficient way to dry your clothes.
Preparing clothes for drying:
• Dry items of similar fabric, weight and construction in the same load.
• Separate dark-colored clothes from light-colored clothes.
• Separate clothes that shed lint from those that attract lint.
• Balance the dryer load evenly throughout the dryer for the best results.
• If your clothes have buckles, buttons and trim, make sure that they are
HEATPROOF.
• To prevent snagging and tangling, make sure that you close zippers, fasten
hooks, tie strings and sashes.
• Check if there are any stains on clothes that may not have been removed
during washing. Sometimes dryer heat may permanently set some stains on clothes. Remove any stains prior to drying.
1
/3 to 1/2 full. Clothes will need room
• When drying small items, place them in a heatproof mesh bag to prevent from
tangling, getting stuck in small drum holes. This is very convenient for easy removal of small items.
• Always check that the lint filter is clean and in place properly to collect the lint
from clothes.
• When drying large items such as blankets, bed sheets, draperies and curtains
try to dry 2 to 3 at a time.
• Do not over dry clothes. It can cause wrinkling, shrinkage, stiffness and
static electricity.

EnglishEnglish
Normal Operating Sounds
The following sounds are normally heard during the operation of the dryer:
• Tumbling sounds. This is normal as the heavy wet clothes in the dryer are
continuously being tossed around.
• Air rushing noise. This happens as the dryer drum spins at very high RPM and
the air is rushing through the dryer drum.
• Timer clicks may be heard.
Energy Saving Tips
• Keep the lint screen clean and exhaust the dryer properly.
• Sort load batches properly and select proper temperature and cycle settings.
• Avoid overloading, adding wet clothes to a partially dry load, or over drying.
• If you have multiple loads to dry, try to dry one load after another right away
to take an advantage of a warm dryer. This way you already have a warm dryer and you save time for drying.
• Do not open door needlessly because it causes warm/hot air to escape which
prolongs drying time.
• Use dryer during low humidity because it will be a normal drying time due to
less moisture in the air, rather than during high humidity days where the air is very moist.
26
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
1. Cleaning the Surface
Wipe off the dust from the body of the dryer and the surface of the main control panel using a soft cleaning cloth. Remember not to use any organic solvent or corrosive agent in cleaning to avoid damage to the machine.
2. Cleaning the Lint Filter
To ensure good ventilation during drying, the lint filter must be cleaned once every drying program is complete.
Open the door to remove the lint filter from the machine. Clean off the lint on the filter and handle using a wet towel. After cleaning, put the filter back in place.
