SAFETY iNSTRUCTiONS FOR iNSTALLATiON

Exhaust/Ducting: , 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 itcollapses 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 cm) in

diameter with no obstructions. The exhaust

duct should be kept as short as possible. Make sure to clean any old ducts before

installing your new dryer. Failure to follow

these instructions can result in fire or death.

• Rigid or semi rigid metal ducting is recommended for use between the

dryer and the wall. in special installations

when it is impossible to make a connection with the above recommendations, a UL=

listed flexible metal transition duct may be used between the dryer and wall connection

only. The use of this ducting will affect drying time. Failure to follow these instructions can

result in fire or death. DO NOT use sheet metal screws or other

fasteners which extend into the duct that could catch lint and reduce the efficiency

of the exhaust system. Secure all joints with duct tape. For complete details, follow the

SPEciAL REQUIREMENTS FOR MANUFACTURED OR MOBILE HOMES

Any installation in a manufactured or mobile

home must comply with the Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standards Title 24 CFR,

Part 32-80 or Standard CAN/CSAOZ240 MH and local codes and ordinances. If you are uncertain

whether your proposed installation will comply with these standards, please contact a service

and installation professional for assistance.

• A gas dryer must be permanently attached to the floor.

The electrical connection for an electric dryer

must be a 4-wire connection. More detailed information concerning the electrical connection

is provided in the section Connecting Electric

Dryers.

To reduce the risk of combustion and fire, the dryer must be vented to the outside.

DO NOT vent the dryer under a manufactured home or mobile home.

Electric dryers may be vented to the outside using the back, left, right, or bottom panel.

Gas dryers may be vented to the outside using

the back, left, or bottom panel. Gas dryers may

not be vented to the outside using the right side panel because of the burner housing.

The dryer exhaust duct must be affixed securely to the manufactured or mobile home structure,

and the exhaust duct must be made of a material that will resist fire and combustion.

It is recommended that you use a rigid or flexible metal duct.

DO NOT connect the dryer exhaust duct

to any other duct, vent, chimney, or other

exhaust duct. Make sure the dryer has adequate access to

outside fresh air to ensure proper operation.

The opening for outside fresh air must be at

least 25 in2(163 cm2). It is important that the clearance of the duct

from any combustible construction be at least 2 in. (5 cm), and when venting the dryer to

the outdoors, the dryer can be installed with a

clearance of 1 in. (2.5 cm) at the sides and back of the dryer.

Please be aware that venting materials are not supplied with the dryer. You should obtain

the venting materials necessary for proper

installation.

FINAL INSTALLATION CHECK

Once you have completed the installation of

the dryer and it is in its final location, confirm

proper operation with the following tests.

Testing Dryer Heating

GAS MODELS Close the dryer door, press the ON/OFF switch

to turn the dryer on, and start the dryer on a heat

setting. When the dryer starts, the igniter should ignite the main burner.

NOTE: If all air is not purged from the gas line,

the gas igniter may turn off before the main

burner ignites. If this happens, the igniter will reattempt gas ignition after approximately

two minutes.

ELECTRIC MODELS Close the dryer door, press the ON/OFF switch

to turn the dryer on, and start the dryer on a heat

setting. The exhaust air should be warm after the dryer has been operating for 3 minutes.

Checking Airflow

Effective dryer operation requires proper airflow.

The adequacy of the airflow can be measured

by evaluating the static pressure. Static pressure in the exhaust duct can be measured with

a manometer, placed on the exhaust duct approximately 2 ft. (60.9 cm) from the dryer.

Static pressure in the exhaust duct should not exceed 0.6 in. (1.5 cm). The dryer should be

checked while the dryer is running with no load.

Checking Levelness

Once the dryer is in its final location, recheck

the dryer to be sure it is level. Make sure it is

level front to back and side to side, and that

all 4 leveling feet are firmly on the floor.

flow TO USE

LOADING THE DRYER

WARNING" To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using this

appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following:

• 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.

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.

CHECK THE LINT FILTER BEFORE EVERY LOAD

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 "Care and Cleaning" for more information.

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.
