DRYER SAFETY

IMPORTANT: The gas installation must conform with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, or the Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code, CSA B149.1.

The dryer must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, or the Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1, CSA C22.1.

WARNING:

FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD

Failure to follow safety warnings exactly could result in serious injury, death or property damage.

Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.

WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS:

Do not try to light any appliance.

Do not touch any electrical switch; do not use any phone in your building.

Clear the room, building, or area of all occupants.

Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor's phone. Follow the gas supplier's instructions.

If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire department.

Installation and service must be performed by a qualified installer, service agency, or the gas supplier.

CHECK YOUR VENT SYSTEM FOR GOOD AIR FLOW

Good air flow

Along with heat, dryers require good air flow to efficiently dry laundry. Proper venting will reduce your drying times and improve your energy savings. See Installation Instructions.

The venting system attached to the dryer plays a big role in good air flow. Blocked or crushed vents as well as improper venting installation will reduce air flow and dryer performance.

Service calls caused by improper venting are not covered by the warranty and will be paid by the customer, regardless of who installed the dryer. To clean or repair venting, contact a venting specialist.

Maintain good air flow by:

Cleaning your lint screen before each load.

Replace plastic or foil vent material with 4" (102 mm) diameter heavy, rigid vent material.

Use the shortest length of vent possible.

Use no more than four 90° elbows in a vent system; each bend and curve reduces air flow.

Good Better

Remove lint and debris from the exhaust hood.

Remove lint from the entire length of the vent system at least every 2 years. When cleaning is complete, be sure to follow the “Installation Instructions” supplied with your dryer for final product check.

Clear away items from the front of the dryer.

USE SENSOR DRY/AUTOMATIC DRY CYCLES FOR BETTER FABRIC CARE AND ENERGY SAVINGS

Use the Sensor Dry/Automatic Dry cycles to provide the most energy savings and enhanced fabric care from the dryer. During Sensor Dry/Automatic Dry cycles, drying air temperature or moisture level is sensed in the load. This sensing occurs throughout the drying cycle and the dryer shuts off when the load reaches the selected dryness.

With Timed Dry, the dryer runs the amount of time set and sometimes results in shrinkage, wrinkling, and static due to over-drying. Use Timed Dry for the occasional damp load that needs a little more drying time or when using the drying rack.

Not all features and options are available on all models.

Appearance may vary.

1TEMPERATURE/FABRIC

Select a drying temperature based on the fabrics in your load. If you are unsure of the temperature to select for a load, select the lower setting rather than the higher setting.

2CYCLE KNOB

Use Cycle Knob to select available cycles on your dryer. Turn the knob to select a cycle for your laundry load. See Cycle Guide for detailed descriptions of cycles.

TIMED DRY

Will run the dryer for the specified time on the control. On models with a selectable temperature knob, you may choose a setting based on the fabrics in your load. On some models, temperature is included in the cycle selections. Drying time and temperature will depend on your dryer model.

SENSOR DRY/AUTOMATIC DRY

Senses moisture in the load or air temperature and shuts off when the load reaches the selected dryness level. Gives the best drying in the shortest time. Drying time will vary based on fabric type, load size, and temperature setting.

WRINKLE CONTROL Feature (on some models)

The WRINKLE CONTROL feature will run after your drying cycle is complete. It periodically starts and stops the dryer, tumbling the load without heat to help avoid wrinkling.

On some models, WRINKLE CONTROL automatically starts at the end of the cycle. Opening the door will stop this feature.

NOTE: A signal will sound periodically when the WRINKLE CONTROL setting is selected, but only if the End of Cycle signal is also selected.

3WRINKLE CONTROL option (on some models)

When you are unable to remove a load of clothes from the dryer as soon as it stops, wrinkles can form. The WRINKLE CONTROL option periodically tumbles, rearranges, and fluffs the load to help keep wrinkles from forming.

Get up to 90 minutes of heat-free, periodic tumbling at the end of a cycle. Turn the WRINKLE CONTROL knob to select OFF or 90 min. at any time before the cycle has ended.

4PUSH TO START/END OF CYCLE SIGNAL

The End of Cycle Signal produces an audible sound when the drying cycle is finished. Promptly removing clothes at the end of the cycle reduces wrinkling.

Turn the END OF CYCLE SIGNAL knob to select the desired setting (On or Off). Press the PUSH TO START knob to start the dryer.
