Your safety and the safety of others are very important.

We have provided many importantsafety 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. [] Gas dryers should only be installed in a room ifthe

room meets the appropriate ventilation requirements specified in the national installation regulations. Make sure the room containing the dryer has an adequate air supply for gas combustion and/or drying operation. A window or equivalent means of ventilation must be opened in the room when the dryer is in use (an equivalent form of opening

includes an adjustable louvre, hinged panel, or other means of ventilation that opens directly to outside air).

[] Keep a minimum clearance of 10 cm (4 in.) between

the rear of the dryer and any wall.

[] The operation of this appliance may affect the

operation of other types of gas appliances which

take their air supply for safe combustion from the

same room. There has to be adequate ventilation to replace exhausted air and thus avoid the back-flow

of gases intothe room from appliances burning other fuels, including open fires, when operating the tumble dryer. If in doubt, consult the appliance

manufacturers.

[] Do not obstruct the air supply to the dryer (see

Installation Instructions for minimum clearances).

[] 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.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Items that have been soiled with substances such as [] Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate cooking oil, acetone, alcohol, petrol, kerosene, spot removers, turpentine, waxes and wax removers should be washed in hot water with an extra amount

of detergent before being dried in the dryer, these items may give off vapours 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 doors to the drying compartment.

[] Do not reach into the dryer if the drum is moving. A

door switch is fitted for your safety.

[] Do not install or store the dryer where it will be

exposed to the weather. [] Do not tamper with controls. [] Do not continue to use this appliance if it appears to

be faulty. [] Do not repair or replace any part of the dryer or

attempt any maintenance unless specifically

recommended in this Use and Care Guide. Repairs

and servicing should only be carried out by

competent service personnel.

static unless recommended by the manufacturer of

the fabric softener or product. Follow their

instructions.

[] Clean dryer lint screen before or after each load. Do

not operate dryer without lint screen in place.

[] Keep area around the exhaust and inlet openings

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 earthing instructions. [] If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by

the manufacturer or its' service agent or a similarly

qualified person in order to avoid hazard. [] Do not dry unwashed items in this dryer. [] Items such as foam rubber (latex foam), shower

caps, waterproof textiles, rubber backed articles and

clothes or pillows fitted with foam rubber pads

should not be dried in the dryer. [] The final part of a tumble dryer cycle occurs without

heat (cool down cycle) to ensure that the items are

left at a temperature that ensures the items will not

be damaged. WARNING: Never stop a tumble dryer cycle before

the end of the drying cycle unless all items are quickly

removed and spread out so that the heat is dissipated.

How Automatic Drying Works

When you are using the Auto Moisture Sensing Cycle, the dryness of the load is determined by two metal strips (sensors/located on the inside of the dryer. [-he metal strips help "feel" the amount of moisture left in the clothes asthey tumble. When moisture is left in the clothes, the Cycle Control knob will not advance. As clothes begin to dry, the amount of water left in the clothes decreases, and the timer advances through the remainder of the cycle. When the selected dryness level is reached, the dryer goes into a cool down period of up to 10 minutes.

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

To stop your dryer Open the dryer door or turn the Cycle Control knob to OFF.

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. See "Checking Your Vent."

As needed cleaning

laundry detergent and fabric softener residue call build up on the lint screen. This buildup can cause longer drying times for your clothes, or cause the dryer to stop before your load is completely dry. The screen is probably clogged if lint falls off the screen.

Clean the lint screen with a nylon brush every 6 months or more frequently if it becomes clogged due to a residue buildup.

To wash

1. Roll lint off the screen with your fingers.

2. Wet both sides of lint screen with hot water.

3. Wet a nylon [)rush with hot water and liquid detergent. Scrub lint screen with the brush to

remove residue buildup.

4. Rinse screen with hot water.

5. Thoroughly dry lint screen with a clean towel. Replace screen in dryer.

To clean dryer drum

1. Make a paste with powdered laundry detergent and very warm water.

2. Apply paste to a soft cloth.

OR Apply a liquid, nonflammable household cleaner to the stained area and rub with a soft

cloth until all excess dye is removed.

3. Wipe drum thoroughly with a damp cloth.

4. Tumble a load of clean cloths or towels to dry drum.

NOTE: Garments that contain unstable dyes, such as denim blue jeans or brightly colored cotton items, may discolor the dryer interior. These stains are not harmful to your dryer and will not stain future loads of clothes. Dry unstable dye items inside out to avoid transfer of dye.

From Inside the Dryer Cabinet lint should be removed every 2 years, or more often, depending on dryer usage. Cleaning

should be done by a qualified person.
