EXHAUST SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
This section describes the requirements for a safe and efficient exhaust
system. Failure to follow these instructions can result in poor dryer
performance, damage to the dryer, and a fire hazard.
IMPORTANT: The dryer must be exhausted to the outdoors.
The dryer shall not be exhausted into any gas vent, chimney, wall, ceiling, attic,
•
crawl space, or concealed space of a building.
DUCTING
If your current exhaust system is constructed of plastic or metal foil exible
•
ducting, replace it with rigid metal ducting.
Use only 4” (10.2 cm) diameter rigid metal ducting.
•
When making turns in the ductwork, use 45° elbows rather than 90° elbows. This
•
provides better airow and can reduce the accumulation of lint in the exhaust
system.
Do not exceed the length of duct pipe for the number of elbows shown in the
•
chart below. Doing so can cause an accumulation of lint, an increase in drying
time, and the creation of a re hazard.
Two 45° elbows equal one 90° elbow.

Use clamps or duct tape to connect and seal all joints.
•
Do not connect with screws or other fasteners that
extend into the interior of the duct as they will create a
collection point for lint.
Clamp
Avoid running the exhaust system through an unheated area as this will cause
•
condensation to form inside the duct and increase the rate of lint accumulation.
Avoid running the exhaust system vertically through a roof as this may expose
•
the exhaust system to down drafts, causing an increase in air restriction.
Avoid sagging, compression or crimping of the exhaust system as this will result
•
in reduced airow and poor dryer performance.
Do not screen the end of the exhaust system. Lint will accumulate and
•
eventually clog the screen. Use an approved exhaust hood to terminate the duct
outdoors.
The total length of exible metal duct shall not exceed 2.4 m (7.8 ft).
•
2½"
EXHAUST HOOD
Use an approved exhaust hood with a swing-out damper that opens when the
•
dryer is in operation. When the dryer stops, the damper automatically closes to
prevent drafts and the entrance of insects and rodents.
Louvered or box hood styles are recommended. Angled hood styles are
•
acceptable, but should be used only for short run installations. See the
“Recommended Maximum Exhaust Length” chart for more information.
To avoid restricting airow, maintain a minimum of 12” (30.5 cm) clearance
•
between the vent hood and the ground or any other obstruction.

2. Use 4" (102 mm) rigid or exible metal ducting to connect the dryer exhaust
outlet to the exhaust system.
3. Use clamps to seal and secure all joints. Exhaust ducting must not be connected
with screws or other fastening devices which extend into the interior of the duct.
NOTES:
Do not use plastic or metal foil exible ducting. Excessive lint can build up inside
•
the ductwork, restrict airow, and create a re hazard. Restricted airow will
increase drying time.
The dryer shall not be exhausted into a chimney, a wall, a ceiling, an attic, a crawl
•
space, or a concealed space of a building.
The dryer must be exhausted to the outdoors. If the dryer is not exhausted
•
outdoors, some ne lint will be expelled into the laundry area. An accumulation
of lint in any area of the home can create a health and re hazard.

STEP 4 - LEVEL THE DRYER
1. Place the dryer in its nal location. Take care not to crush or kink the exhaust
vent. Make sure that all four feet are rmly in contact with the oor and that the
dryer rests solidly in position.
NOTE: For a gas dryer, make sure that there are no kinks in the exible gas line.
2. Using a carpenter’s level, check that the dryer is level from side to side and from
front to back.
3. If the dryer is not level, adjust the leveling feet. Turn clockwise to extend (raise
the dryer) or counterclockwise to retract (lower the dryer).
STEP 5 - COMPLETE THE INSTALLATION
1. Plug the dryer power cord into an appropriate outlet.
2. Resume power to the outlet. Check that the circuit breaker is switched on.
3. Dispose of/recycle all packaging materials.
4. Make sure the dryer area is clean and free from combustible materials, gasoline,
and other ammable vapors. Also see that nothing (such as boxes, clothing, etc.)
obstructs the ow of combustion and ventilation air through the louvered panel
located on the rear of the dryer.
5. Test dryer operation by selecting a Timed Dry heated cycle. See the “Operating
Instructions” section.
NOTE: On gas dryers, before the burner will light, it is necessary for the gas line
to be bled of air. If the burner does not light within 45 seconds, the rst time the
dryer is turned on, the safety switch will shut o the burner. If this happens, turn
the dryer to “OFF” and wait 5 minutes before making another attempt to light
the burner.

FEATURES
HUMIDITY DRYNESS SENSOR
The humidity sensor enables the dryer to sense the actual moisture content
•
of garments in the load. Automatic Cycles utilize this information along with
air temperature readings to complete the dry cycle at the proper time. This
intelligent technology saves energy, reduces static, and protects clothing from
damage due to over-drying.
The sensor also provides consistent and accurate drying results and enables you
•
to ne tune the dryer’s performance with the Dry Level button.
INTERIOR DRUM LIGHT (ON SOME MODELS)
The interior drum light helps you see inside the dryer and nd all of your laundry
•
items. A switch on the cabinet automatically turns the light on when the door is
opened and o when the door is closed.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read the
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS before operating this appliance.
STEP 1 - PREPARE AND SORT LAUNDRY
Check garment labels for manufacturers’ drying instructions.
•
Where possible, turn pockets inside out for uniform drying.
•
Tie strings and sashes so they don’t tangle.
•
Close zippers, snaps and hooks to avoid snagging.
•
Make sure buttons and ornaments on the clothes are high temperature resistant
•
and will not damage drum surface.
To avoid permanently setting stains or soils, check that all stains and soils have
•
been removed during the wash cycle. If not, wash them again.
To avoid entanglement and ensure easy removal, small articles should be
•
collected in a mesh bag before loading.
Separate fabrics that attract lint from fabrics that give o lint. Clothes prone to
•
linting should be turned inside out before being put into the dryer.
STEP 2 - CLEAN THE LINT SCREEN
1. Clean the lint screen before each use. The lter can be removed by pulling on the
handle of the lint screen located inside the dryer door.
2. Use your ngers to roll the accumulated lint o of the lint screen. Do not rinse or
wash the lint screen to remove lint.
3. Slide the lint screen back into place.
NOTES:
Do not operate the dryer without having the lint screen in place. Without the
•
screen, tumbling garments could enter the exhaust system and cause damage
to the dryer.
Lint buildup on the screen will restrict airow and cause longer drying times.
•
27
STEP 3 - LOAD THE DRYER
1. Load damp garments loosely into the dryer drum.
2. Close the dryer door.
NOTES:
Do not pack the dryer full of garments.
•
An appropriate load should be ⅓ to ½ of the drum volume. Allow space for
•
clothes to tumble freely for uniform and wrinkle-free drying.
When you are drying large bulky items, only 2-3 pieces should be loaded at a time
•
along with a few small and medium-sized garments.
For delicate clothes or small loads, adding a couple of towels will help to ensure
•
that garments are tumbled. This will produce even drying and reduce wrinkles.
STEP 4 - START THE DRYER
1. Turn the dryer on by pressing the POWER BUTTON.
2. Select a dry cycle by rotating the CYCLE SELECTION KNOB.
3. Modify the default settings and options if desired.
4. Press the START/PAUSE BUTTON on the face of the knob to start the dryer.
NOTE:
Opening the door will pause the operating cycle. Close the door and press the
•
START/PAUSE BUTTON to resume.
