IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

• Gas dryers MUST be exhausted to the outside.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in fire or death.

• The dryer exhaust system must be exhausted to

the outside of the dwelling. If the dryer is not exhausted outdoors, some fine lint and large amounts of moisture will be expelled into the laundry area. An accumulation of lint in any area of

the home can create a health and fire hazard.

• Use only rigid metal or flexible metal 4-in.

diameter ductwork inside the dryer cabinet or for exhausting to the outside. Use of plastic or other combustible ductwork can cause a fire. Punctured

ductwork can cause a fire if it collapses or becomes otherwise restricted in use or during installation.

• Ductwork is not provided with the dryer, and you

should obtain the necessary ductwork locally. The end cap should have hinged dampers to prevent backdraft when the dryer is not in use. Failure to

follow these instructions can result in fire or death.

• The exhaust duct must be 4 in. (10.2 cm) in

IMPORTANT!

The most common cause of dryer problems is poor exhaust venting. Before you install your new dryer, check the

items listed below to make sure you get the best possible performance. This can save you time and money by reducing cycle times and increasing energy efficiency.

DIRTY OR DAMAGED EXHAUST DUCTS. Lint builds up in exhaust ducts over time. This decreases the airflow and makes the dryer work harder. Visually inspect your ducts from both ends and have them cleaned if they have not been cleaned recently.

WRONG VENT MATERIAL. Check your vent to make sure it is rigid or semi-rigid metal ducting. If your venting is plastic or flexible foil, have it replace before using the dryer.

RESTRICTED OR DAMAGED VENT HOOD. Check your vent hood outside. It must be clean and free of lint buildup. Check the damper and make sure it opens fully and easily.

EXESSIVELY LONG VENT. Measure the length of your exhaust system and count the elbows. Use the chart of page 15 to see if your duct is too long. If it is too long, have the duct routed to another location that is within the venting guidelines.

DO NOT USE PLASTIC OR FOIL VENTING. The transition duct from your dryer to the wall must be rigid or semi-rigid metal ducting. If your old transition duct is plastic or foil, REPLACE IT with semi-rigid metal ducting.

CHECK YOUR EXHAUST SYSTEM FOR PROBLEMS

Using the Duct Requirements Chart (below)

Select the type of vent hood. Select row that matches the number of elbows required in the dryer duct run. Look to the right of elbow number for the maximum duct length for your installation. Longer duct length will result in

reduced drying performance, longer dry times and increased energy consumption.

DO NOT exceed maximum length for the duct type and number of elbows used.

Selecting and Verifying Duct Length Chart

NOTE: Deduct 6 ft. (1.8 m) for each additional elbow. It is not recommended to use more than four 90˚ elbows.

Routing and Connecting Ductwork

Follow the guidelines below to maximize drying performance and reduce lint buildup and condensation in the ductwork.

NOTE: Ductwork and fittings are NOT included and must be purchased separately.

• Use 4 in. (102mm) diameter rigid or semi rigid metal ductwork.

• The exhaust duct run should be as short as possible.

• Use as few elbow joints as possible.

• The male end of each section of exhaust duct must point away from the dryer.

• Use duct tape on all duct joints.

• Insulate ductwork that runs through unheated areas in order to reduce condensation and lint buildup on duct surfaces.

• The Total length of flexible metal duct shall not exceed 8 ft.(2.4m)

• In Canada, only those foil-type flexible ducts, if any, specifically identified for use with the appliance by the manufacturer shall be used. In the United States, only those foil-type flexible ducts, if any, specifically identified for use with the appliance by the manufacturer and that comply with the Outline for Clothes Dryer Transition Duct, Subject 2158A, shall be used.

IMPORTANT: Failure to exhaust the dryer per the guidelines included within these instructions may result in unsatisfactory dryer performance. All venting and ductwork beyond the exterior of the dryer is the responsibility of the consumer. Product failure as a result of improper venting is not covered by the manufacturer’s warranty.

Connecting the Dryer Vent

Verify all ducts and elbows are clean and free from any blockages.

Measure duct length. DO NOT exceed the maximum length listed in the chart on page 15.

Connect dryer exhaust to existing ductwork.

• Use duct tape or clamps only.

• DO NOT use screws to secure ductwork.

• Use rigid or semi rigid metal duct.

• DO NOT use plastic or thin metal foil tubing for ductwork.

• The male end of each elbow must always point in the direction of the airflow.

WARNING:

Failure to follow these guidelines will result in poor performance, product failure, and/or result in fire or death.

WARNING:

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using this appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following:

Fabric Care Labels

Most articles of clothing feature fabric care labels that include instructions for proper care.

Loading Tips

• Combine large and small items in a load.

• Damp clothes will expand as they dry. Do not overload the dryer; clothes require room to tumble dry properly.

• Close zippers, hooks, and drawstrings to prevent these items from snagging or tangling on other clothes.

Always make sure the lint filter is clean before starting a new load; a clogged lint filter will increase drying times.

To clean, pull the lint filter straight up and roll any lint off the filter with your fingers. Do not rinse or wash the filter to remove lint. Push the lint filter firmly back into place. See “Regular Cleaning” on page 28 for more informa- tion.

Always ensure the lint filter is properly installed before running the dryer. Running the dryer with a loose or missing lint filter may damage the dryer and articles in the dryer.

• Check all pockets to make sure that they are empty. Items such as clips, pens, coins, and keys can damage both your dryer and your clothes. Flammable objects such as lighters or matches could ignite, causing a fire. Failure to

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

• Never dry clothes that have been exposed to oil, gasoline, or other flammable substances. Washing clothes will not completely remove oil residues. Failure to obey this warning can result

in fire, explosion, or death.

Grouping Similar Items

For best results, sort clothes into loads that can be dried with the same drying cycle.

Different fabrics have different care requirements, and some fabrics will dry more quickly than others. For best fabric care results, always dry fabrics with similar care requirements together.
