WARNING --Risk of Fire

,, Clothes dryer installationmust 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. Ifflexible 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.

/_To

WARNING

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, wpees, and wpe 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.

/f_ What to do if you smell gas:

IARNING

Do not try to lightany 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.

,, Ifyou 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.

cancer and reproductive toxicity. Gas appliances can cause low-level exposure to Proposition 65 listed substances,

includingbut not limitedto, benzene, carbon monoxide, formaldehyde and soot, substances resulting from the incomplete combustion of natural gas or LP fuels.

Engl sh - 5

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

Do not sit on top of the dryer. Ensure pockets are free from small, irregularly shaped hard objects, foreign material, etc. ie.

,6,

WARNING

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 inyour system, resulting in a dangerous situation.

WARNING

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.

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.

,, Ifa 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.

,, Ifexhaust 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.

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.

Ifyou need to change the direction of the door, go to Door Reversal on page 19. When done, return to Step 3 below.

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.

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

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:

Z_ Risk Of Electric Shock

WARNING

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" (lcm) deep well socket.

To ensure that the dryer provides optimal drying performance, it must

be level. To level the dryer, follow the lettered steps below:

Level

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

to back.

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

the dryer until the dryer is level side to side and back to front. Turning the feet clockwise retracts the feet. Turning the feet clockwise loosens and extends them.

if you have a dryer and washer

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

Adjust 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.

10. Make sure all gas connections (on gas models) and exhaust, and electrical connections are complete. Plug in your dryer, and then check its operation by using the checklist on the next page.

11. 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.

Engl sh- 16

CONNECTING THE INLET HOSE

METHOD1

The dryer must be connected to the cold water faucet using the new inlet hoses. Do not use old hoses.

DRYER EXHAUST TIPS

Z_ Plastic or non-metal flexible duct presents a potential fire hazard.

WARNING

1. Make sure your dryer is installed properly so it exhausts air easily.

2. Use 4" diameter rigid metal duct. Tape all joints, including at the dryer. Never use lint-trapping screws.

3. Keep ducts as straight as possible.

Clean all old ducts before installing your new dryer. Be sure the vent flap opens and closes freely. Inspect and clean the exhaust system annually.

[

Don't let a poor exhaust system slow drying by:

1. Restricting your dryer with a poor exhaust system. 1

2. Using a plastic, thin foil, or non-metal flexible duct.

3. Using unnecessarily long ducts that have many elbows.

4. Using crushed or clogged venting or ducts.

To select a cycle, rotate the Cycle Selector dial to the desired cycle. The indicator light by the cycle name will illuminate. The NORMAL, HEAVY

DUTY, BEDDING, SANITIZE, PERM PRESS, WOOL, DELICATES, ACTIVE WEAR, ECO NORMAL, and TOWELS cycles are Sensor Dry cycles.

Sensor Dry automatically senses the moisture in the load and shuts the dryer off when the load reaches the dryness level you have selected with the Dry

Level Selection Button (see below). ECO NORMAL - This cycle reduces energy usage by up to 20% compared to

the Normal Dry cycle. It adjusts the cycle time and temperature for increased efficiency.

NORMAL - The normal cycle is for most fabrics including cotton, linens, and normally soiled garments.

(If this cycle is selected, the Eco Dry function is enabled by default. For more information, please refer to the descriptions about the "Eco Dry" option.)

HEAVY DUTY- Use this cycle to get high heat for heavy fabrics such as

jeans, corduroys, or work clothes.

BEDDING - For bulky items such as blankets, sheets and comforters. SANITIZE - Sanitizes garments by infusing high temperature heat deep into the fabric during the drying cycle. Use this cycle to keep your bedding and

curtains clean through sanitization. PERM PRESS - Dry wrinkle-free cottons, synthetic fabrics, knits, and permanent press fabrics automatically.

EngBh- 21

WOOL - For machine washable and tumble dryable wool only. DEMCATES - The DELICATES cycle is designed to dry heat-sensitive items at

a low drying temperature. ACTIVE WEAR - The ACTIVE WEAR cycle is for exercise wear and outdoor

wear such as sports jerseys, training pants, water-repellent jackets and other performance clothing. Thick fabrics like a zipper or velcro closure of a jacket,

or training socks may not be completely dried. TOWELS - To dry bath towels and similar items.

QUICK DRY - Provides a 30 minute drying cycle. TIME DRY - The TIME DRY cycle allows you to select a cycle time in minutes.

(If this cycle is selected, the Eco Dry function is enabled by default. For more information, please refer to the descriptions about the "Eco Dry" option.)

AIR FLUFF - The AIR FLUFF cycle tumbles the load in room temperature air. REFRESH - This cycle is best for smoothing out wrinkles and reducing odors

from loads consisting of one to four dry items. In this cycle a small amount of water is sprayed into the dryer drum after several minutes of tumbling with

heat. WRINKLE AWAY - The WRINKLE AWAY cycle removes wrinkles from clothes

stored in closets, etc. It provides wrinkle release via optimized steam care. You can change the drying time. (Minimum time : 20 minutes)

* For best results, load no more than 3 items.

The display window shows the estimated time remaining in the cycle after you have pressed the Start/Pause button. The estimated time remaining may fluctuates as the cycle progresses.

The Drying light will illuminate and remain lit until the cycle is complete. When your dryer is in the cool-down phase, the Cooling light will illuminate. When

your dryer is in the wrinkle prevent phase, the Wrinkle Prevent light will illuminate. When the cycle is complete, "End" will appear in the display panel until you push

the Start!Pause button or the power button. Ifyour dryer is paused during a cycle, the indicator lights will blink until you press the Start/Pause button.

To select the dry level in the NORMAL, HEAVY DUTY, or other Sensor Dry cycles except SANITIZE, WOOL and ACTIVE WEAR press the Dry Level button. An indicator light will illuminate next to the desired dryness level.

Press the button repeatedly to scroll through the settings. Larger or bulkier loads may require the Very Dry or More Dry setting for complete dryness.

The Less Dry setting is best suited for lightweight fabrics or for leaving some moisture in the clothing at the end of the cycle. Damp Dry is designed to partially dry items. Use for items that lay flat or hang to dry.

To select the temperature for the load, press the Temp. button. An indicator light will illuminate next to the temperature you selected. Press the button repeatedly to scroll through the settings.

High - For sturdy cottons or those labeled Tumble Dry. Medium - For permanent press, synthetics, lightweight cottons, or items

labeled Tumble Dry Medium. Med Low - For heat lower than Medium. Use to dry synthetic or washable knit

fabrics. Low - For heat sensitive items labeled Tumble Dry Low or Tumble Dry Warm. Extra Low - Provides the lowest heated drying temperature possible.

When using Manual Dry cycles, you can adjust the drying time by pressing the time selection button.

During the Sensory Dry cycle, the time light indicator is off because exact drying times are determined by fluctuating humidity levels.

Therefore, the actual drying time may differ from the displayed time.

Engl sh- 22

Anti Static - To reduce statics by clothing friction and spray steam at the later period of drying cycle.

It is only available with: NORMAL, HEAVY DUTY, PERM PRESS, DELICATES (Dry level of every cycle exceeds Normal) and TIME DRY cycle.

Rack Dry - Rack Dry is available in the TIME DRY cycle. Temperature will be set to Extra Low only. (Refer to the "Rack Dry" section on page 24.)

Mixed Load Bell - The mixed load bell that notifies you when the average dry level in a load is damp dry (80% dried). This lets you take garments that you don't want fully dried or that dry quickly out of the dryer early while letting others continue to dry.

You can select this function in all Sensor Dry cycles except WOOL, SANITIZE and ACTIVE WEAR. The dry level selections are limited to Normal Dry, More

Dry, and Very Dry. Wrinkle Prevent - Wrinkle Prevent provides approximately 180 minutes

of intermittent tumbling in unheated air at the end of the cycle to reduce wrinkling. Press the Wrinkle Prevent button to activate this feature.

The indicator light above the pad will illuminate when Wrinkle Prevent is selected.

The load is dry, and can be removed at any time during the Wrinkle Prevent cycle.

My Cycle - Choose your favorite cycle including cycle, temp, dry level option, etc. (Refer to the "My cycle" section on page 25.)

and WRINKLE AWAY cycle. To add or subtract time from the cycle, press the Adjust Time arrow pad up or

down until the desired time is displayed. Small Load Care TM (Gas model Only) - To control the operation rate for

drying a small load in the Sensor Dry cycle. It isonly availablewith: NORMAL, HEAVY DUTY,PERM PRESSand DELICATES

cycle. Itcan't be selected/cancelled when the drying cycle isrunning.

In order to improve drying effect and control operation rate, the drum can be paused during operation.

Eco Dry (Electric model Only) - This function is available in the NORMAL, and TIME DRY cycles. When the Eco Dry function is activated, drying takes longer but the power consumption is reduced by up to 20%.

(When the Eco Dry function is enabled, the drying time can be extended up to 3 times depending on the specified temperature and the amount of laundry to

be dried. When the product is shipped, the Eco Dry function is set to On by default.)
