WARNING - Risk of Fire

Clothes dryer installation must be performed by a qualified installer.

• Install the clothes dryer according to the manufacturer's instructions and local codes. Do not install a clothes dryer with flexible plastic venting materials. If flexible metal (foil type) duct is installed, it must be of a specific type identified by the appliance

manufacturer as suitable for use with clothes dryers. Flexible venting materials are known to collapse, be easily crushed, and trap lint. These conditions will obstruct

clothes dryer airflow and increase the risk of fire. To reduce the risk of severe injury or death, follow all installation instructions.

reduce the risk of fire or explosion:

Do not dry items that have been previously cleaned, washed, soaked, or spotted with gasoline, dry cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances. They emit vapors that could ignite or explode. Any material that has been in contact with a cleaning solvent or flammable liquids or solids should not be placed in the dryer until all

traces of these flammable liquids or solids and their fumes have been removed. There are many highly flammable items used in homes, such as acetone, denatured alcohol, gasoline, kerosene, some liquid household cleaners, some spot removers, turpentine, waxes, and wax removers

Items containing foam rubber (may be labeled latex foam) or similarly textured rubber- like materials must not be dried on a heat setting. Heated foam rubber materials can, under certain circumstances, produce fire by spontaneous combustion.

w_.,._What to do if you smell gas:

• Do not try to light any appliance.

• Do not turn on the 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.

Do not allow children or pets to play on, in, or in front of the appliance. Close supervision is necessary when the appliance is used near children and pets.

Before discarding or removing your dryer from service, remove the door to the drying compartment to prevent children or animals from becoming trapped inside.

Do not reach into the appliance when the drum is moving. Do not install or store this appliance where it will be exposed to the weather.

Do not tamper with controls.

Do not repair, replace, or attempt to service any part of the appliance unless specifically instructed to in the user-repair instructions and you have the understanding and skills to

carry out the procedure. Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static unless the softener or product is

recommended for dryer use by the manufacturer of the fabric softener or product. Clean the lint screen before or after each load.

Keep the area around the exhaust opening and surrounding areas free from lint, dust, and dirt. The interior of the dryer and exhaust duct should be cleaned periodically by qualified service

personnel.

This appliance must be properly grounded. Never plug the power cord into a receptacle that is not grounded adequately and in accordance with local and national codes. See

Z_ Ensure pockets are free from small, irregularly shaped hard objects, foreign material, etc. ie.

....... coins, knives, pins, etc. These objects could damage your dryer.

Do not wash clothing with large buckles, buttons, or other heavy metal or solid objects.

/_ Gas leaks may occur in your system, resulting in a dangerous situation.

WARNIN_

Gas leaks may not be detected by smell alone. Gas suppliers recommend you purchase and install a UL-approved gas detector. Install and use in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.

Do not place items in your dryer that have been spotted or soaked with vegetable oil or cooking oil. Even after being washed, these items may contain significant amounts of these oils.

Residual oil on clothing can ignite spontaneoulsy. The potential for spontaneous combustion increases when items containing vegetable oil or cooking oil are exposed to heat. Heat sources such as your dryer can warm these items, allowing an oxidation reaction in the oil to occur. Oxidation creates heat. If this heat cannot escape, the items can become hot enough to catch fire. Piling, stacking, or storing these kinds of items may prevent heat from escaping and can create a fire hazard.

All washed and unwashed fabrics that contain vegetable oil or cooking oil can be dangerous. Washing these items in hot water with extra detergent will reduce, but not eliminate, the hazard. Always use the Cool Down cycle for these items to reduce their temperature. Never remove these items from the dryer hot or interrupt the drying cycle until the items have run through the Cool Down cycle. Never pile or stack these items when they

are hot.

DVDV47d 484 03022E-01 EN 20120710.indd Sec3:10 2012-07-10 _ 5:27:22 I

DUCTING REQUIREMENTS

Use a 4-inch (10.2 cm) diameter rigid aluminum or rigid galvanized steel duct. Do not use a smaller duct.

Ducts larger than 4 inches (10.2 cm) in diameter can cause increased lint accumulation. Lint accumulation should be cleaned regularly.

If a flexible metal duct must be used, use the type with a stiff sheet metal wall. Do not use a flexible duct with a thin foil wall. Serious blockage can result if the flexible metal duct is bent too sharply.

Never install any type of flexible duct in walls, ceilings, or other concealed spaces. Keep the exhaust duct as straight and short as possible. Secure joints with duct tape. Do not use screws. Plastic flexible duct can kink, sag, be punctured, reduce airflow, extend drying times, and affect dryer

operation. Exhaust systems longer than recommended can extend drying times, affect machine operation, and

may collect lint. The exhaust duct should end with an exhaust hood with a swing-out damper to prevent back drafts and

the entry of wildlife. Never use an exhaust hood with a magnetic damper. The hood should have at least 12 inches (30.5 cm) of clearance between the bottom of the hood and

the ground or other obstruction. The hood opening should point down. Never install a screen over the exhaust outlet.

To avoid lint buildup, do not exhaust the dryer directly into a window well. Do not exhaust under a house or porch.

If exhaust ductwork must run through an unheated area, the duct should be insulated and slope slightly down towards the exhaust hood to reduce condensation and lint buildup.

Inspect and clean the interior of the exhaust system at least once a year. Unplug the power cord before cleaning.

Check frequently to be sure the exhaust hood damper opens and closes freely. Check once per month, and clean at least one time per year. Note: If clothes are not getting dry, then

check ducting for obstructions. Do not exhaust dryer into any wall, ceiling, crawl space, or concealed space of a building, gas vent, or

any other common duct or chimney. This could create a fire hazard from lint expelled by the dryer.

If the new dryer is being installed into an existing exhaust system, you must make sure:

• The exhaust system meets all local, state, and national codes.

• That a flexible plastic duct is not used.

• To Inspect and clean all lint buildup from inside the existing duct.

• The duct is not kinked or crushed.

• The exhaust hood damper opens and closes freely.

The static pressure in any exhaust system must not exceed 0.83 inches of water column, or be

less than 0.

This can be measured with the dryer running with a manometer at the point where the exhaust

duct connects to the dryer. A no-heat setting should be used. The dryer tumbler should be empty and the lint filter clean.

IMPORTANT TO INSTALLER

Please read the following instructions carefully before installing the dryer. These instructions should be kept

for future reference.

Z_ Remove the door from all discarded appliances to avoid the danger of a child suffocating.

INSTALLATION - GENERAL PROCEDURE

For proper installation, we recommend that you hire a qualified installer. Read these instructions completely before you begin the installation.

To install the dryer, follow these steps:

1. Move your dryer to an appropriate location for installation. Consider installing the dryer and washer side- by-side so you have easy access to both appliances.

To move the dryer easily, lay two of the carton cushion-tops on the floor. Tip your dryer on its side so it

lies across both cushion-tops. Push the dryer so that it is near its final location. Set your dryer upright. Leave enough room around the dryer so you can attach the duct work, power cord, etc.

2. If you need to change the direction of the door, go to Door Reversal on page. When done, return to Step 3 below.

3. Review the Exhausting section before installing the exhaust system. Install the duct work from your dryer to the exhaust hood. The crimped end of the duct sections must point away from your dryer. DO

NOT use sheet metal screws when assembling ducting. These joints should be taped. Never use plastic flexible exhaust material.

A tip for tight installations: Attach a section of the exhaust system to your dryer before putting it in

place. Use duct tape to secure this section to your dryer, but do not cover the ventilation slots at the back of the dryer cabinet.

4. If you have an electric model, skip to Step 6. If you have a gas model, go to the next step.

5. Review the Gas Requirements section, then follow the lettered steps below.

a. Remove the pipe thread protective cap. b. Apply pipe joint compound or about 1 1/2 wraps of Teflon tape over all threaded connections.

[_ The pipe joint compound must be resistant to the action of liquefied petroleum

any gas.

c. Connect the gas supply to your dryer. An additional fitting is required to connect the 3/4" (1.9 cm)

female thread end of a flexible connector to the 3/8" (1 cm) male threaded end on the dryer. d. Securely tighten the gas line fitting over the threads. e. Turn on the gas supply. Check all gas connections for leaks using a soap solution. If bubbles

appear, tighten the connections and recheck. DO NOT use an open flame to check for gas leaks. f. Go to Step 6 on the next page

U.S. MODELS: IMPORTANT - All U.S. models are designed for a 3-WIRE SYSTEM CONNECTION. The dryer frame is

grounded to the neutral conductor at the terminal block. A 4-WIRE SYSTEM CONNECTION is required for

new or remodeled construction, mobile homes, or if local codes do not permit grounding through neutral. If you use the 4-wire system, you cannot ground the dryer frame to the neutral conductor at the terminal

block. Remove the terminal block cover plate. Insert the power cord with a UL-listed strain relief through the hole

provided in the cabinet near the terminal block.

A strain relief must be used. Do not loosen the nuts already installed on the terminal block. Be sure they are tight. Use a 3/8" (1cm) deep well socket.

9. Connect the Water Inlet Hose. For instructions, go to Connecting the Inlet Hose on page Level

10. To ensure that the dryer provides optimal drying performance, it must be level. To level the dryer, follow the lettered steps below:

ao Using a level, check if the dryer is level side to side and then front

to back.

bo If the dryer is not level, adjust the leveling feet on the bottom of

the dryer until the washer is level side to side and back to front. Turning the feet clockwise retracts the feet. Turning the feet

clockwise loosens and extends them.

[_ To set the dryer to the same height as the washer, fully

retract the leveling feet by turning them counterclockwise, then loosen the feet by turning them clockwise. Once the dryer is the same height as the washer, follow the

directions above to level the dryer.

Leveling feet

Retract fully Then loosen

[_ djust the leveling feet only as much as necessary to level the dryer. Extending the leveling

feet more than necessary can cause the dryer to vibrate.

1t. Make sure all gas connections (on gas models), exhaust, and electrical connections are complete. Plug

in your dryer, and then check its operation by using the checklist below.

12. For GAS MODELS ONLY The burner may not ignite initially due to air in the gas line. Allowing your dryer to operate on a heat

setting will purge the line. If the gas does not ignite within 5 minutes, turn your dryer off and wait 5 minutes. Be sure the gas supply to your dryer has been turned on. To confirm gas ignition, check the

exhaust for heat.

FINAL INSTALLATION CHECKLIST

[] The dryer is plugged into an electrical outlet and grounded properly. [] The exhaust ductwork is hooked up and the joints are taped. [] You have used rigid or stiff-walled flexible metal duct material, not plastic flexible duct. [] The dryer is level and is sitting firmly on the floor. [] For gas models: The gas is turned on and there are no gas leaks. [] Start your dryer to confirm that it runs, heats, and shuts off.

Door

LOAD THE DRYER PROPERLY

Place only one washload in your dryer at a time. In mixed loads, heavy and lightweight fabrics will dry differently. This may result in lightweight fabrics

being dry while heavy fabrics remain damp at the end of a drying cycle. Add one or more additional similar items to your dryer when you are drying only one or two items. This

improves the tumbling action and drying efficiency. Overloading restricts tumbling action, resulting in uneven drying as well as excessive wrinkling of some

fabrics.

GETTING STARTED

1. Load your dryer loosely- DO NOT overload.

2. Close the door.

3. Select the appropriate cycle and options for the load (see pages 24, 25, 26).

4. Press the Start/Pause button.

5. The dryer indicator light will illuminate.

6. The estimated cycle time will appear in the display. The time may fluctuate as humidity levels fluctuate in the dryer.

. hen the cycle is complete, "End" will appear in the display.

Pressing Power cancels the cycle and stops your dryer.

The Drying, Cooling, and Wrinkle Prevent indicator lights will illuminate during those portions of the

cycle.

Do not place anything on top of your dryer while it is running.
