DRYER SAFETY

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of re, electric shock, or injury to persons when using the dryer, follow basic precautions,

including the following:

n Read all instructions before using the dryer. n 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 re. .

n Do not dry articles that have been previously cleaned

in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other ammable or explosive substances as they give off vapors that could ignite or explode.

n Do not allow children to play on or in the dryer. Close

supervision of children is necessary when the dryer is used near children.

n Before the dryer is removed from service or discarded,

remove the doors to the drying compartment.

n Do not reach into the dryer if the drum is moving. n Do not install or store the dryer where it will be exposed

to the weather.

n Do not tamper with controls.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

n Do not repair or replace any part of the dryer or attempt

any servicing unless specically recommended in this Use and Care Guide or in published user-repair instructions that you understand and have the skills to carry out.

n Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static

unless recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric softener or product.

n Do not use heat to dry articles containing foam rubber or

similarly textured rubber-like materials.

n Clean lint screen before or after each load. n Keep the grille on the rear of the dryer free from the

accumulation of lint, dust, and dirt.

n The interior of the appliance should be cleaned

periodically by qualied service personnel.

n See “Electrical Requirements” in “Installation

Instructions” for grounding instructions.

Stack Kit

If space is at a premium, the stack kit allows the dryer to be installed on top of the washer.

12" Pedestal

Color-matched pedestals raise the washer and dryer to a more comfortable working height.

Heat Pump Technology

A typical dryer uses large amounts of energy; this dryer consumes a fraction of the energy by recycling and reclaiming heat. This dryer is a ventless heat pump dryer that uses a refrigeration system to dry and recycle the same air. The laundry is dried with low temperatures; therefore it may feel cooler than expected during and after the drying process.

The heat pump dryer’s heating phase is longer than in traditional dryers. If possible, do not open the dryer door during the process as heat can escape from the drum and can make longer drying times.

Heat Pump Unit

Benets of a Heat Pump

• ENERGY: Regenerates energy to reduce overall energy consumption.

• PERFORMANCE: Allows ﬂexibility to manage drying performance and energy savings.

• FABRIC CARE: Capability to use less heat than vented dryer.

• VENTLESS DESIGN: Allows installation in more locations throughout the home.

New Sounds from a Heat Pump

• Dryer runs on a compressor like your refrigerator and you may notice a hum from the compressor.

• The water from wet clothes is pumped out to your drain or water tank. You may notice a gurgling sound occasionally.

Condenser is heating up the air

Air blower

Evaporator is drying air and discharging condensation water

Use Automatic Cycles for better fabric care and energy savings

Use the Automatic Cycles to provide the most energy savings and enhanced fabric care from the dryer. During Automatic Cycles, heat pump unit temperature and moisture level are sensed in the load. This sensing occurs throughout the drying cycle and the dryer shuts off when the load reaches the selected dryness. Use the NORMAL dryness level to provide optimal energy savings.

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

Using Your Dryer

WARNING: To reduce the risk of ﬁre, electric shock, or injury to persons, read the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS before operating this appliance.

1. Empty water tank

Hold the handle and carefully pull out the water tank. Holding the full water tank with both hands, empty out the water. Then push the container back into place. Make sure that it is properly inserted.

2. Clean door lint screen

3. Clean bottom lter

Clean the bottom ﬁlter after every 5 cycles. Open the ﬁlter door on the bottom of the dryer and grab the handle to pull out ﬁlter. Remove the foam from the bottom ﬁlter. Clean the ﬁlter foam and ﬁlter by hand or rinse with water – do not wash the ﬁlter foam in a washer. Wring out the ﬁlter foam – do not insert it in the bottom ﬁlter dripping wet. For additional cleaning information, see “Dryer Care.”

Replace the ﬁlter foam on the bottom ﬁlter. Replace the bottom ﬁlter in the ﬁlter chamber. Fold the ﬁlter handle down and close the bottom door.

NOTE: To turn off the “Clean bottom ﬁlter” ( ) status indicator, the ﬁlter must be removed and replaced with the Power button touched ON and no cycle running.

Clean the lint screen before each load. Pull the lint screen straight up and out. Press tab down and open lint screen. Roll lint off the screen with your ﬁngers. Push the lint screen ﬁrmly back into place.

IMPORTANT: Clean lint screen before each dryer use as a screen blocked with lint will increase drying time.

To save energy, the dryer turns off automatically about a quarter hour after the program/cycle ends.

If not turned off right after the program/cycle ends, the dryer will tumble the laundry for about 10 minutes to prevent wrinkling. The display shows an animation.

NOTE: If the Power button is touched and held, a countdown will be displayed. At the end of the countdown, any errors will be erased and the program/cycle will restart.

14. Remove garments promptly

after cycle is nished

After setting drying time or dryness level, the indicator light above “Options” lights up. Turn the knob to select the desired option(s). As you turn the knob, the option symbols above the Options button will light up one at a time as you turn the knob. Stop turning when the symbol of the desired option lights up. Press the knob to conﬁrm your selection.

Not all options and settings are available with all program/ cycles. See “Program/Cycle Guide” for available options and settings.

12. Touch Start/Pause button to begin

drying program/cycle

Touch the Start/Pause button to start the drying program/ cycle. To pause a program/cycle in progress, touch the Start/ Pause button once, then touch again to continue the program/ cycle. To cancel a program/cycle, touch the Power button.

Promptly remove garments after cycle has completed to reduce wrinkling.

Adapting the dryer to water conductivity

The drying results are affected by the conductivity of the water used during washing. If, by modifying the available dryness levels (damp dry, dry, and extra dry), you are not satisﬁed with the ﬁnal drying results, you can adapt the water conductivity level. The dryer comes with preset level 3. Choose between level 1 (most damp results) and 5 (most dry results).

1. Touch and hold the Program button. The

display will count down until the Conductivity Adjustment symbol on the display ﬂashes and the current setting is shown.

2. Turn the knob to adjust the level (1-2-3-4-5). Press the

knob to conﬁrm your selection.

NOTE: This new setting will affect all future cycles. If the desired drying results are attained, water conductivity will not require further adjustment.
