DRYER SAFETY

Your safety and the safety of others are very important.

We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety

messages.

This is the safety alert symbol.
This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.

All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word "DANGER" or "WARNING."

These words mean:

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't immediately

follow instructions.

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't follow
instructions.

All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can
happen if the instructions are not followed.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using the dryer, follow basic precautions,

including the following:

[] Read all instructions before using the dryer.
[] 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.

[] Do not dry articles that have been previously cleaned in,

washed in, soaked in, or spotted with gasoline, dry-
cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive

substances as they give off vapors that could ignite or
explode.

[] Do not allow children to play on or in the dryer. Close

supervision of children is necessary when the dryer is
used near children.

[] Before the dryer is removed from service or discarded,

remove the door to the drying compartment.

[] Do not reach into the dryer if the drum is moving.
[] Do not install or store the dryer where it will be exposed

to the weather.

[] Do not tamper with controls.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

[] Do not repair or replace any part of the dryer or attempt

any servicing unless specifically recommended in this
Use and Care Guide or in published user-repair

instructions that you understand and have the skills to
carry out.

[] Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static

unless recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric
softener or product.

[] Do not use heat to dry articles containing foam rubber or

similarly textured rubber-like materials.

[] Clean lint screen before or after each load.
[] Keep area around the exhaust opening and adjacent

surrounding areas free from the accumulation of lint, dust,
and dirt.

[] The interior of the dryer and exhaust vent should be

cleaned periodically by qualified service personnel.

[] See installation instructions for grounding requirements.

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 death.

- Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this

or any other appliance.

- WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS:

• Do not try to light any appliance.

• Do not touch any electrical switch; do not use any phone in your building.

• Clear the room, building, or area of all occupants.

• Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor's phone. Follow the gas supplier's

instructions.

• If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire department.

- Installation and service must be performed by a qualified installer, service agency, or

the gas supplier.

Your dryer must be properly installed and vented to achieve
maximum drying efficiency and shorten drying times. Use the
minimum recommended installation clearances found in the
Installation Instructions. See the Installation Instructions for more

information.

Fire Hazard
Use a heavy metal vent.
Do not use a plastic vent.

Do not use a metal foil vent.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death

or fire.

If the dryer is not properly installed and vented, it will not be
covered under the warranty. Proper venting of your dryer is

important for satisfactory drying results. See the Installation
Instructions for more detail.

NOTE: Service calls caused by improper venting will be paid for
by the customer, whether it was a paid installation or self-
installed.

f. Do not use plastic vent or metal foil vent. Use 4" (10.2 cm)

metal or flexible metal vent. Do not kink or crush flexible
metal vent. It must be completely extended to allow adequate

exhaust air to flow. Check vent after installation. Refer to the
Installation Instructions for proper length requirements of

vent.

2. Use a 4" (10.2 cm) exhaust hood.

3. Use the straightest path possible when routing the vent.

Good Better

4.

Use clamps to seal all joints. Do not use duct tape, screws or
other fastening devices that extend into the interior of the

vent to secure vent.

5.

Clean exhaust vent periodically, depending on use, but at
least every 2 years, or when installing your dryer in a new

location. When cleaning is complete, be sure to follow the
Installation Instructions supplied with your dryer for final

product check.

DRYER USE

Explosion Hazard

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

Do not dry anything that has ever had anything
flammable on it (even after washing).

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,

explosion, or fire.

This booklet covers several different models. Your dryer may not
have all of the cycles and features described.

Before using your dryer, wipe the dryer drum with a damp cloth to
remove dust from storing and shipping.

f. Clean the lint screen before each load. See "Cleaning the Lint

Screen."

2. Load clothes loosely into the dryer and close the door. Do not
pack the dryer. Allow space for clothes to tumble freely.

3. Turn the Cycle Selector Control to the recommended cycle
for the type of load being dried. Use the Normal Dry cycle,

indicated by an asterisk (*), to dry most heavy to medium
weight fabrics.

4. Set the Temperature control to the recommended setting for
the type of fabric being dried. See "Dryer Cycle Descriptions"

(separate sheet) for temperature suggestions.

5. (OPTIONAL) Your dryer may have a WRINKLE GUARD _
feature selector. When you are unable to remove a load from

the dryer as soon as it stops, wrinkles can form. This feature
periodically tumbles, rearranges and fluffs the load without

heat to help avoid wrinkling.

6. (OPTIONAL) If you want the dryer to sound a signal when the
cycle is finished, set the END OF CYCLE SIGNAL control to

ON, or to the volume level you prefer (on some models). The
signal is helpful when you are drying permanent press,

synthetics and other items that should be removed from the
dryer as soon as it stops.

7. If desired, add a fabric softener sheet. Follow package
instructions.

8. Press the PUSH TO START button.

Fire Hazard

No washer can completely remove oil.
Do not dry anything that has ever had any type of oil on

it (including cooking oils).
Items containing foam, rubber, or plastic must be dried

on a clothesline or by using an Air Cycle.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death

or fire.

Stopping and Restarting
You can stop your dryer anytime during a cycle.

To stop your dryer
Open the dryer door or turn the Cycle Selector Control to OFR
NOTE: The Cycle Selector Control should point to an Off area

when the dryer is not in use.
To restart your dryer

1. Close the door.

2. Select a new cycle and temperature (if desired).

3. Press the PUSH TO START button.

How Automatic Drying Works

During the Automatic Drying Cycle, the exhaust temperature of
the dryer determines the drying time and dryness levels. A
thermostat signals the Cycle Control Knob when to move into

Cool Down. The drying time for an Automatic Drying Cycle
depends on load type and load size. When drying a large or

heavy load, the Cycle Control Knob may take a long time before it
begins to advance into Cool Down. Automatic Drying Cycle takes

the guesswork out of drying time and enhances fabric care. The
amount of time that is displayed is the estimated time remaining

in the cycle.

DRYER CARE

gasoline, away from dryer.

Place dryer at least 18 inches (46 cm) above the floor

for a garage installation.

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

L_t c>o_})®n

Clean the lint screen before each load. A screen blocked by lint
can increase drying time.

IMPORTANT:

• Do not run the dryer with the lint screen loose, damaged,
blocked, or missing. Doing so can cause overheating and

damage to both the dryer and fabrics.

• If lint falls off the screen into the dryer during removal, check
the exhaust hood and remove the lint.

Every Load Cleaning
