Important Safety Instructions

Save These Instructions
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, serious in­jury or death to persons when using your dryer, fol­low these basic precautions:
W130
Read all instructions before using the dryer.
Install this dryer according to the INSTALLATION IN­STRUCTIONS. Refer to the EARTH/GROUND INSTRUC­TIONS in the INSTALLATION manual for the proper earth/ ground connection of the dryer. All connections for electrical power, earth/ground and gas supply must comply with local codes and be made by licensed personnel when required. Do not do it yourself.
Do not install or store the dryer where it will be exposed to water and/or weather.
Do not dry articles that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with gasoline or machine oils, vegetable or cooking oils, cleaning waxes or chemicals, dry-cleaning solvents, thinner, anything containing chemicals such as in mops and cleaning cloths, or other flammable or explosive substances as they give off vapors that could ignite, explode or cause fabric to catch on fire by itself.
Items that have been soiled with substances such as 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 tumble dryer.
To reduce the risk of fire, DO NOT DRY plastics or articles containing foam or latex rubber or similarly textured rubber­like materials, such as shower caps, water proof textiles, rub­ber-backed articles, and clothes or pillows filled with foam rubber pads.
Do not tumble fiberglass curtains and draperies unless the la­bel says it can be done. If they are dried, wipe out the cylinder with a damp cloth to remove particles of fiberglass.
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 appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. This is a safety rule for all appliances.
Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision.
Children less than three years should be kept away unless continuously supervised.
Do not reach into the dryer if the cylinder is revolving.
Use the dryer only for its intended purpose, drying clothes. ALWAYS follow the fabric care instructions supplied by the garment manufacturer and only use the dryer drum to dry tex­tiles that have been washed in water.
Always read and follow manufacturer’s instructions on pack­ages of laundry and cleaning aids. Heed all warnings or pre­cautions. To reduce the risk of poisoning or chemical burns, keep them out of reach of children at all times (preferably in a locked cabinet).
Remove laundry immediately after the dryer stops.

Safety Information
DO NOT operate the dryer if it is smoking, grinding or has missing or broken parts or removed guards and/or panels. DO NOT tamper with the controls or bypass any safety devices.
DO NOT operate individual units if they have been separated from a stack unit.
Dryer will not operate with the loading door open. DO NOT bypass the door safety switch by permitting the dryer to oper­ate with the door open. The dryer will stop tumbling when the door is opened. Do not use the dryer if it does not stop tum­bling when the door is opened or starts tumbling without pressing the START mechanism. Remove the dryer from use and call the service person.
ALWAYS clean the lint filter after every load. A layer of lint in the filter reduces drying efficiency and prolongs drying time. Keep area around the exhaust opening and adjacent sur­rounding area free from the accumulation of lint, dust and dirt. The interior of the dryer and the exhaust duct should be cleaned periodically by qualified service personnel.
Do not repair or replace any part of the dryer, or attempt any servicing unless specifically recommended in the user-mainte­nance instructions or in published user-repair instructions that you understand and have the skills to carry out. ALWAYS dis­connect the electrical power to the dryer before attempting service. Disconnect the power cord by grasping the plug, not the cord.
Electric Models: If supply cord is damaged, it must be re­placed by a special cord or assembly available from the man­ufacturer or its service agent.
Gas Models: If supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
Before the dryer is removed from service or discarded, re­move the door to the drying compartment.
Failure to install, maintain, and/or operate this machine ac­cording to the manufacturer’s instructions may result in con­ditions which can produce bodily injury and/or property dam­age.
NOTE: The WARNING and IMPORTANT SAFETY IN­STRUCTIONS appearing in this manual are not meant to cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. Observe and be aware of other labels and pre­cautions that are located on the machine. They are in­tended to provide instruction for safe use of the ma­chine. Common sense, caution and care must be exer­cised when installing, maintaining, or operating the dryer.
Always contact your dealer, distributor, service agent or the man­ufacturer about any problems or conditions you do not under­stand.

IMPORTANT: Installing in-line filters or lint collectors will cause increased static pressure. Failure to main­tain the secondary lint system will decrease dryer effi­ciency and will void machine warranty.
1. Correct
2. Incorrect
Figure 4
DO NOT use plastic, thin foil or type B ducting. Rigid metal duct is recommended.
Locate dryer so exhaust duct is as short as possible.
Be certain old exhaust ducts are cleaned before installing your new dryer.
Use 4 inch [102 mm] diameter rigid or flexible metal duct.
The male end of each section of duct must point away from the dryer.
Use as few elbows as possible.
Use of duct tape or pop-rivets on all seams and joints is rec­ommended, if allowed by local codes. DO NOT use sheet metal screws or fasteners on exhaust pipe joints which extend into the duct and catch lint.
Ductwork that runs through unheated areas must be insulated to help reduce condensation and lint build-up on pipe walls.
Install backdraft dampers in multi-dryer installations.
In mobile home installations, dryer exhaust duct must be se­cured to mobile home structure.
Dryer exhaust duct MUST NOT terminate under mobile home.
Exhaust duct must not be connected to any other duct, vent, or chimney.
Dryer exhausts 220 cfm per unit (measured at back of dryer).
DO NOT install flexible duct in concealed spaces, such as a wall or ceiling.
Static pressure in exhaust duct should not be greater than 0.6 inches water column [1.5 cm water column], measured with
manometer placed on exhaust duct 2 feet [610 mm] from dry­er (check with dryer running and no load). In multi-dryer in­stallations, all dryers connected to the main collector duct should be operating when pressure is checked.
Exhausting dryer in hard-to-reach locations can be done by installing 521P3 Flexible Metal Vent Kit (available as option­al equipment at extra cost).
Sufficient make-up air must be supplied to replace the air ex­hausted by the dryer. The free area of any opening for outside air must be at least 40 in.2 [25806 mm2] per unit.
Energy efficient buildings with low air infiltration rates should be equipped with an air exchanger that can accommo­date on demand make-up air needs in the laundry room. These devices can be obtained through your building contractor or building material suppliers.
Do not draw make-up air from a room containing a gas fired water heater, a dry cleaner or a hair salon.
Failure to exhaust dryer properly will void warranty.
A dryer will dissipate 60 Btu/ft2 [681,392 J/m2] of surface area exposed to the conditioned air.
NOTE: Venting materials are not supplied with the dry­er (obtain locally).
IMPORTANT: DO NOT block the airflow at the bottom of the dryer’s front panel with laundry, rugs, etc. Blockage will decrease airflow through the dryer, thus reducing the efficiency of the dryer.

Exhaust Direction

The dryer can be exhausted to the outdoors through the back, left, right or bottom of the dryer. EXCEPTION: Gas dryers cannot be vented out the left side because of the burner housing.
Dryer is shipped from factory ready for rear exhaust.
Exhausting the dryer through sides or bottom can be accomplish­ed by installing a Directional Exhaust Kit, 528P3, available as optional equipment at extra cost.

Exhaust System

For best drying results, recommended maximum length of ex­haust system is shown in Table 2 .
To prevent backdraft when dryer is not in operation, outer end of exhaust pipe must have a weather hood with hinged dampers (ob­tain locally).
NOTE: Weather hood should be installed at least 12 in­ches [305 mm] above the ground. Larger clearances may be necessary for installations where heavy snow­fall can occur.
