EASY
OF
USE
An
entire
selection
of

USING
THE
RLM
(REMOTE

The
RLM
monitors
status
of
your
dryer.
You
can
plug
the
display
unit
into
any
power
outlet
in
your
home.
The
RLM
Display
Unit
can
be
purchased
separately
for
this
dryer.
DUAL
SENSOR
TECHNOLOGY
It
makes
it
possible
to
sense
even
less
than
a
1
kg
load
size.
So
regardless
of
load
weight,
more
accurate
sensing
is
ensured.

What
are
Sensor
Dry
and
Time
Dry?
Your
dryer
provides
sensor
drying
and
time
drying
programs.
Sensor
Dry
:
Dryer
electronically
sense
laundry
humidity
and
it
automatically
determines
operation
time
based
on
the
dryness
of
the
load
and
the
selected
program.
At
times,
you
can
see
sudden
increase
or
decrease
in
operation
time.
It
happens
because
a
sensor
will
detect
laundry humidity
within
a
certain
period.
Sudden
change
in
operation
time
is
not
a
malfunction.
Time
Dry
:
You
can
manualy
set
drying
time
to
complete
drying.
Use
dry
performance
if
clothes
are
still
damp
after
sensor
dry
cycle
is
finished.
Time
Dry
is
more
effective
for
heavyweight
and
bulky
items
such
as
king-size
bed
sheets
and
thick
work
clothes.

this
entire
manual
before
proceeding
with
any
installation
or
use.
More
detailed
instructions
concerning
electrical
connections,
gas
connections,
and
exhaust
requirements
are
provided
in
other
parts
of
this
manual.
Choose
a
location
with
a
solid
floor
for
your

Place
the
dryer
at
least
eighteen
inches
above
the
floor
for
a
garage
installation.
After
placing
the
dryer
in
the
desired
location,
please
make
sure
that
it
has
the
required
clearances
shown
below.
If
you
are
installing
your

minimum
clearances
are
set
forth
in
the
picture
below.
Please
keep
the
following
instructions
in
mind
when

may
force
additional
clearances.
?
An
additional
inch
of

INITIAL
STEPS
FOR
INSTALLING
YOUR
DRYER
Prior
to
the
first
use
of
this
appliance,
use
all-
purpose
cleaning
products
or
a
solution
of
detergent
and
water,
with
damp
cloth
to
remove
from
the
inside
of
the
dryer
drum/drying
compartment
any
dust
or
dirt
that
may
have
accumulated
inside
the
dryer.
Plug-in
your
dryer
after
reviewing
the
following
parts
on
your
dryer's
Electrical
Requirements.
Effective
dryer
operation
requires
appropriate
dryer
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
inches
(1.5
cm).
The
dryer
should
be
checked
while
the
dryer
is
running
with
no
load.
Confirming
Heat
Source
in
Gas
Dryers
Close
the
door
to
the
dryer
drum/drying
compartment
and,
after
completing
all
steps
in
this
manual
for
proper
installation
of
this
dryer,
start
the
dryer
on
a
heat
setting.
After
the
dryer
starts,
the
igniter
will
glow
red
and
the
main
burner
will
ignite.
Warning:
If
all
air
is
not
purged
from
the
gas
line,
the
gas
igniter
may
go
off
before
the
gas
and
the
main
burner
have
ignited.
If
this
happens,
the
igniter
will
re-attempt
gas
ignition
after
approximately
two
minutes.
Confirming
Heat
Source
in
Electric
Dryers
Close
the
door
to
the

INITIAL
STEPS
FOR
INSTALLING
YOUR
DRYER
The
following
instructions
are
applicable
to
installations
of
the
dryer
in
a
manufactured
or
mobile
home.
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/CSA0Z240
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.
The
following
instructions
apply
to
any
installation
of
the
dryer
in
a
manufactured
or
mobile
home:
1)
The
gas
dryer
must
be
permanently
attached
to
the
floor.
2)
The
electrical
connection
for
an
electric
dryer
must
be
a
4-wire
connection.
More
detailed
information
concerning
the
electrical
connection
is
provided
at
the
manual
section
entitled
Electrical
Requirements
for
Electric
Dryer
3)
To
reduce
the
risk
of
combustion
and
fire,
the
dryer
must
be
vented
to
the
outside.
4)
Electric
dryers
may
be
vented
to
the
outside
using
the
back,
left,
right,
or
bottom
panel.
5)
Gas
dryers
may
be
vented
to
the
outside
using
the
back,
left,
or
bottom
panel.
Gas
dryer
may
not
be
vented
to
the
outside
using
the
right
side
panel
because
of
the
burner
housing.
6)
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,
and
it
is
recommended
that
you
use
a
rigid
or
flexible
metal
pipe.
7)
DO
NOT
connect
the
exhaust
duct
with
any
other
duct,
vent,
chimney,
or
other
exhaust
duct.
8)
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
in
2
(163
cm
2
).
9)
It
is
important
that
the
clearance
of
the
duct
from
any
combustible
construction
be
at
least
2
inches
(5
cm),
and,
when
venting
the
dryer
to
the
outdoors,
the
dryer
can
be
installed
with
a
clearance
of
1
inch
at
the
sides
and
back
of
the
dryer.
10)
Please
be
aware
that
venting
materials
are
not
supplied
with
the
dryer.
You
should
obtain
the
venting
materials
necessary
for
proper
installation.
WARNING!
DO
NOT
connect
exhaust
ducts
with
metal
screws
or
fasteners
that
extend
into
the
duct.
