This dryer must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or

breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock
by providing a path of least resistance for electric current.
This dryer is equipped with a cord having an equipment-
grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must

be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes

and ordinances.
WARNING: Improper connection of the equipment-

grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician or service representative

or personnel if you are in doubt as to whether the dryer is
properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the
dryer: if it wiII not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed

Use a heavy metal vent. Do not use plastic or metal foil vent.
Rigid metal vent is recommended to prevent crushing and

kinking.

Flexible metal vent must be fully extended and supported when
the dryer is in its final position. Remove excess flexible metal vent
to avoid sagging and kinking that may result in reduced airflow

and poor performance.
An exhaust hood should cap the vent to prevent rodents and

insects from entering the home.

Exhaust hood must be at least 12" (30.5 cm) from the ground or

any object that may be in the path of the exhaust (such as
flowers, rocks or bushes, etc.).

If using an existing vent system, clean lint from the entire length

of the system and make sure exhaust hood is not plugged with

lint. Replace any plastic or metal foil vent with rigid metal or
flexible metal vent.

Alternate installations for close clearances

Venting systems come in many varieties, Select the type best for
your installation. Two close-clearance installations are shown.

Refer to the manufacturer's instructions,

A B

A. Over-The-Top installation (also available with one

offset elbow)

B. Periscope installation

Determine vent length

1. Select the route that will provide the straightest and most
direct path outdoors. Plan the installation to use the fewest
number of elbows and turns. When using elbows or making
turns, allow as much room as possible. Bend vent gradually
to avoid kinking. Avoid 90° turns when possible.

2. Determine vent length
The maximum length of the exhaust system depends upon:

• The type of vent (rigid metal or flexible metal).

• The number of elbows used.

• Typeof hood.
Recommended hood styles are shown here.

B

1_4,,4%

(10.2 cm)

A.Louvered hood style
B.Box hood style

The angled hood style (shown following) is acceptable.

4" _-_

See the exhaust vent length chart that matches your hood
type for the maximum vent lengths you can use.

Exhaust systems longer than specified will:

• Shorten the life of the dryer.

• Reduce performance, resulting in longer drying times and
increased energy usage.

3=

Determine the number of elbows you will need.
IMPORTANT: Do not use vent runs longer than those

specified in the Vent Length Chart.
The following chart helps you determine your maximum vent

length based on the number of 90° turns or elbows you will
need and the type of vent (rigid or flexible metal) and hood
that you will use.

90° turn to the chart.

1.

Install exhaust hood. Use caulking compound to seal exterior

wall opening around exhaust hood.

2.

Connect vent to exhaust hood. Vent must fit inside exhaust
hood. Secure vent to exhaust hood with 4" (10.2 cm) clamp.

3.

Run vent to dryer location. Use the straightest path possible.
See "Determine vent length." Avoid 90° turns. 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.

3=

Examine the leveling legs. Find the diamond marking.

1

4. Screw the legs into the leg holes by hand. Use a wrench to
finish turning the legs until the diamond marking is no longer

visible.

5. Place a carton corner post under each of the 2 dryer back
corners. Stand the dryer up. Slide the dryer on the corner
posts until it is close to its final location. Leave enough room

to connect the exhaust vent.

6. Once connection is made and dryer is in final location,
remove corner posts and cardboard.

Check the levelness of the dryer. Check levelness first
side to side, then front to back.

If the dryer is not level, prop up the dryer using a wood block.
Use a wrench to adjust the legs up or down and check again for

levelness.
NOTE: It might be necessary to level the dryer again after it has

been moved into its final position.

10

1. Using a 4" (10.2 cm) clamp, connect vent to exhaust outlet in
dryer. If connecting to existing vent, make sure the vent is
clean. The dryer vent must fit over the dryer exhaust outlet

and inside the exhaust hood. Make sure the vent is secured
to exhaust hood with a 4" (10.2 cm) clamp.

2. Move dryer into final position. Do not crush or kink vent.
Make sure dryer is level.

3. (On gas models) Check to be sure there are no kinks in the
flexible gas line.

Properly loading your dryer can lower your utility bill and prolong

Loading suggestions

• Load the dryer by the amount of space items take up, not by
their weight.

• Do not overload the dryer. This causes uneven drying and
wrinkling.

Super Capacity Dryers

Heavy Work Clothes

4 jeans 2 sweatpants
4 workpants 2 sweatshirts

4 workshirts

Towels
10 bath towels
10 hand towels

Mixed Load

3 sheets (1 king, 2 twin) 9 T-shirts
4 pillowcases 9 shorts

3 shirts 10 handkerchiefs
3 blouses

Select the correct cycle and dryness level or temperature for your
load. If an Auto Dry Cycle is running, the display shows the

estimated cycle time when your dryer is automatically sensing

the dryness level of your load. If a Manual Cycle is running, the

display shows the exact number of minutes remaining in the
cycle.

Cool Down tumbles the load without heat during the last few
minutes of all cycles. Cool Down makes the loads easier to
handle and reduces wrinkling. The length of the Cool Down

depends on the load size and dryness level.

Drying tips

• Follow care label directions when they are available.

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

• To reduce wrinkling, remove the load from the dryer as soon
as tumbling stops. This is especially important for permanent
press, knits, and synthetic fabrics.

• Avoid drying heavy work clothes together with lighter fabrics.
This could cause overdrying of lighter fabrics and lead to

increased shrinkage or wrinkling.

Cycle tips

• Dry most loads using the preset cycle settings.

• Refer to the Auto Dry chart or Manual Preset Cycle Settings
chart (in the "Cycles" section) for a guide to drying various

loads.

you choose an Auto Dry Cycle. You can select a different
dryness level, depending on your load, by pressing Auto
Dry Level and choosing More or Less.

Ifyou wish to adjust the cycle length of a Manual Cycle,
press More Time or Less Time. Adjust the temperature of
a Manual Cycle by pressing Temperature until the desired
temperature is selected.
