DRYER SAFETY
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.
■ This dryer is intended only for drying clothes and textiles
that have been washed in water. Do not use for any other
purpose.
■ WARNING: If you smell gas, do not use the dryer or any
electrical equipment nearby. Warn other people to clear the
area. Contact the dryer owner immediately.
■ 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.
■ If it is unavoidable that fabrics that contain vegetable or
cooking oil or that have been contaminated by hair care
products be placed in a tumble dryer, they should first be
washed in hot water with extra detergent – this will reduce,
but not eliminate the hazard.
■ Do not dry articles that have been previously cleaned in,
washed in, soaked in, or spotted with petrol, dry-cleaning
solvents, other flammable, or explosive substances as they
give off vapors that could ignite or explode.
■ Items that have been soiled with substances such
as acetone, alcohol, petrol, kerosene, spot removers,
turpentine, waxes, and wax removers should be washed
in hot water with extra detergent before being dried
in the dryer.
■ Do not dry unwashed items in the dryer.
■ Do not use this dryer if industrial chemicals have been used
for cleaning. The possible presence of residual quantities
of aggressive or decomposed chemicals in the load may
produce damage to the dryer and harmful fumes.
■ Do not allow children to play on or in the dryer. Close
supervision of children is necessary when the dryer is used
near children.
■ This dryer is not intended for use by persons (including
children) with reduced physical, sensory, or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience or knowledge, unless they
have been given supervision or instruction concerning use
of the dryer by a person responsible for their safety.
■ Before the dryer is removed from service or discarded,
remove the door to the dryer compartment.
■ Do not reach into the dryer if the drum is moving.
■ Do not open door while dryer is in operation. It will stop.
■ When loading or re-loading the dryer, avoid touching hot
metal parts of the drum (burn risk).
■ If drum rotation is blocked due to trapped textiles,
disconnect the dryer from the electrical supply before gently
removing the blockage.
■ If the dryer is not heating, or appears to be defective or
damaged, do not use it. Contact the owner.
■ Do not install or store the dryer where it will be exposed to
the weather.
■ Do not tamper with controls.
■ Clean dryer lint screen before or after each load.
■ Do not use this dryer without the lint screen in place.
■ Do not repair or replace any part of the dryer or attempt any
servicing unless specifically recommended in this Installation
Instructions or in published user-repair instructions that you
understand and have the skills to carry out.
■ Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static
unless recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric
softener or product.
■ Do not use heat to dry articles containing foam rubber or
similarly textured rubber-like materials.
■ The final part of a tumble dryer cycle occurs without heat
(cool-down cycle) to ensure that the articles are left at a
temperature that ensures that the items will not be damaged.
■ WARNING: Never stop a tumble dryer before the end of
the drying cycle unless all items are quickly removed and
spread out so that the heat is dissipated. (Avoids risk of
spontaneous combustion).
■ In case of electrical supply failure, remove the load quickly
and spread it out to avoid risk of spontaneous combustion.
■ Keep area around the exhaust opening and adjacent
surrounding areas free from the accumulation of lint, dust,
and dirt.
■ The fresh air ventilation openings into the room and into the
dryer must not be blocked or sealed.
■ Emergency stop control: The mains plug should be removed
in an emergency.
■ The interior of the dryer and dryer exhaust vent should be
cleaned periodically by qualified service personnel.

DRYER VENTING REQUIREMENTS
If an Exhaust Hood Cannot be UsedMultiple Dryer Venting
The outside end of main vent should have a sweep elbow directed
downward.
* Minimum clearance above any
accumulation of snow, ice, or
debris such as leaves
If main vent travels vertically through the roof, rather than through
wall, install a 180° sweep elbow on end of vent at least 610 mm
(2 ft.) above surface of roof.
The opening in wall or roof shall have a diameter 13 mm (1⁄2")
larger than vent diameter. Vent should be centered in opening.
Do not install screening over end of vent for best performance.
A main vent can be used for venting a group of dryers. The main
vent should be sized to remove 5663 l/min. (200 CFM) of air per
dryer. Large-capacity lint screens of proper design may be used in
main vent if checked and cleaned frequently. The room where the
dryers are located should have make-up air equal to or greater than
CFM of all the dryers in the room.
Back-draft dampers are available from your distributor and should
be installed in the vent of each dryer to keep exhausted air from
returning into dryers and to keep exhaust in balance within main
vent. Unobstructed return air openings are required.
Although usually each single-load dryer should have an
unobstructed outdoor air opening of 154 cm2 (24 in.2) (based on
6.5 cm2 [1 in.2] per 252 kcal [1,000 Btu]), common make-up air
openings are also acceptable. Set up common openings so the
make-up air is distributed equally to all of the dryers. Keep in mind
that the coverage area must be increased by 33% to account for
the use of registers or louvers over the openings. Also, make-up air
openings should not be installed near the location where exhaust
vents exit the building.
Each vent should enter the main vent at an angle pointing in
the direction of the airflow. Vents entering from the opposite side
should be staggered to reduce the exhausted air from interfering
with the other vents.
30˚ max.
Make Gas Connection
air ow
Air Flow
The maximum angle of each vent entering the main vent should be
no more than 30°.
Keep air openings free of dry cleaning fluid fumes. Fumes create
acids which, when drawn through the dryer heating units, can
damage dryers and items being dried.
A clean-out cover should be located on the main vent for periodic
cleaning of the vent system.
GAS SUPPLY CONNECTION (on some models)
3. Open the shut-off valve in the gas supply line and make sure
the dryer has its own gas supply opened.
4. Test all connections by brushing on an approved noncorrosive
leak-detection solution. Bubbles will show a leak. Correct any
leaks found.
1. Remove red cap from gas pipe on back of dryer.
2. Connect gas supply to dryer. If the flexible gas hose has 10 mm
(3/8") BSP thread, use the supplied conversion thread adapter.
Use pipe-joint compound resistant to the action of L.P. gas for
gas connections.
If necessary for service, open the toe panel. Use a putty knife
to press on the 2 toe panel locks located at the top of the toe
panel. Pull downward on the toe panel to open. Toe panel
is hinged at the bottom.

SECURITE DU SECHE-LINGE
IMPORTANTES INSTRUCTIONS DE SÉCURITÉ
AVERTISSEMENT : Pour réduire les risques d’incendie, de choc électrique ou de blessures lors de l’utilisation
du sèche-linge, suivre les précautions fondamentales dont les suivantes :
■ Lire toutes les instructions avant d’utiliser le sèche-linge.
■ Ce sèche-linge est conçue uniquement pour le séchage
de vêtements et de textiles ayant été nettoyés à l’eau.
Ne pas l’utiliser à toute autre fin.
■ AVERTISSEMENT: Si l’on détecte une odeur de gaz,
ne pas utiliser le sèche-linge ou tout autre équipement
électrique situé à proximité. Avertir les autres personnes
qu’elles doivent évacuer cette zone. Contacter
le propriétaire du sèche-linge immédiatement.
■ Ne pas placer des articles exposés aux huiles de cuisson
dans votre sèche-linge. Les articles contaminés par des
huiles de cuisson peuvent contribuer à une réaction
chimique qui pourrait causer à la charge de s’enflammer.
■ Si on doit absolument placer des tissus qui contiennent de
l’huile végétale ou de cuisson ou qui ont été contaminés par
des produits de soin des cheveux dans un sèche-linge, faut
d’abord les laver dans de l’eau chaude avec un supplément
de détergent; ceci réduira le danger, sans toutefois
l’éliminer.
■ Ne pas faire sécher des articles qui ont été nettoyés ou
lavés avec de l’essence ou imbibés d’essence, solvants
de nettoyage à sec, ou autres substances inflammables ou
explosives; ces substances peuvent émettre des vapeurs
susceptibles de s’enflammer ou d’exploser.
■ Les articles qui ont été souillés avec des substances
comme de l’acétone, de l’alcool, du pétrole, du kérosène,
des détachants, de la térébenthine, des cires et des
décapants pour cire doivent être lavés à l’eau chaude avec
un supplément de détergent avant d’être séchés dans le
sèche-linge.
■ Ne pas faire sécher dans le sèche-linge des articles
nonlavés.
■ Ne pas utiliser ce sèche-linge si l’on a utilisé des produits
chimiques industriels pour le nettoyage. La présence
éventuelle de quantités résiduelles de produits chimiques
corrosifs ou décomposés dans la charge peut endommager
le sèche-linge et produire des fumées toxiques.
■ Ne pas laisser des enfants jouer sur ou à l’intérieur
du sèche-linge. Bien surveiller les enfants lorsque
le sèche-linge est utilisé à proximité d’enfants.
■ Ce sèche-linge n’est pas conçu pour une utilisation par
des personnes (notamment des enfants) aux capacités
physiques, sensorielles ou mentales réduites, ou manquant
d’expérience ou de connaissances, à moins qu’elles soient
supervisées par une personne responsable ou aient reçu
des instructions adaptées pour utiliser le sèche-linge en
toute sécurité.
■ Avant de retirer le sèche-linge pour un dépannage ou pour
le jeter, ôter la porte du compartiment du sèche-linge.
■ Ne pas tenter d’atteindre un article à l’intérieur de la cuve
du sèche-linge lorsque le tambour est en mouvement.
■ Ne pas ouvrir la porte lorsque le sèche-linge est
en marche. Il s’arrêtera.
■ Lors du chargement ou du rechargement du sèche-linge,
éviter de toucher les parties métalliques chaudes du
tambour (risque de brûlure).
CONSERVEZ CES INSTRUCTIONS
■ Si la rotation du tambour est entravée par des tissus
coincés, déconnecter le sèche-linge de l’alimentation
électrique avant de retirer la source d’obstruction avec
précaution.
■ Ne pas utiliser le sèche-linge s’il ne chauffe pas, s’il semble
défectueux ou endommagé. Contacter le propriétaire.
■ Ne pas installer ou remiser ce sèche-linge à un endroit
où il serait exposée aux intempéries.
■ Ne pas modifier les organes de commande.
■ Nettoyer le filtre à charpie avant et après chaque charge.
■ Ne pas utiliser ce sèche-linge si le filtre à peluches
n’est pas installé.
■ Ne pas réparer ou remplacer un composant quelconque du
sèche-linge, ni entreprendre une opération de service, si ce
n’est spécifiquement recommandé dans ce manuel ou dans
un manuel d’instructions de réparations destiné à l’utilisateur;
il est alors essentiel que la personne concernée comprenne
ces instructions et soit compétente pour les exécuter.
■ Ne pas utiliser un produit assouplissant de tissu ou des
produits pour éliminer la statique à moins qu’ils ne soient
recommandés par le fabricant du produit assouplissant de
tissu ou du produit.
■ Ne pas utiliser la chaleur pour faire sécher des articles
fabriqués avec du caoutchouc mousse ou de matériaux
semblables.
■ La dernière partie d’un programme de séchage
par culbutage a lieu sans chaleur (programme de
refroidissement) pour faire en sorte que les articles
soient laissés à une température qui garantit que les articles
ne seront pas endommagés.
■ AVERTISSEMENT: Ne jamais arrêter le séchage par
culbutage avant la fin du programme de séchage sauf
si tous les articles sont retirés rapidement et répartis pour
une dissipation de la chaleur (permet d’éviter le risque de
combustion spontanée).
■ En cas de coupure de l’alimentation électrique, retirer
rapidement la charge et l’étaler pour éviter tout risque
de combustion spontanée.
■ Ne pas laisser la charpie, la poussière, ou la saleté
s’accumuler autour du système d’évacuation ou autour de
l’appareil.
■ Les ouvertures de ventilation pour l’arrivée d’air frais dans
la pièce et dans le sèche-linge ne doivent pas être obstruées
ou scellées.
■ Commande d’arrêt d’urgence : En cas d’urgence, la prise
d’alimentation secteur doit être retirée.
■ Un nettoyage périodique de l’intérieur du sèche-linge et du
conduit d’évacuation doit être effectué par une personne
qualifiée.
■ Voir la section “Spécifications électriques” dans les
instructions d’installation pour les instructions de mise
à la terre.
