Safety Information

Explanation of Safety Messages

Throughout this manual and on machine decals, you

will find precautionary statements (“DANGER,”

“WARNING,” and “CAUTION”) followed by specific

instructions. These precautions are intended for the

personal safety of the operator, user, servicer, and

those maintaining the machine.

Additional precautionary statements (“IMPORTANT”

and “NOTE”) are followed by specific instructions.

IMPORTANT: The word “IMPORTANT” is used

to inform the reader of specific procedures where

minor machine damage will occur if the procedure

is not followed.

NOTE: The word “NOTE” is used to communicate

installation, operation, maintenance or servicing

information that is important but not hazard

related.

Important Safety Instructions

Save These Instructions

1. Read all instructions before using the dryer.

2. Refer to the GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS in

the INSTALLATION manual for the proper

grounding of the dryer.

3. Do not dry articles that have been previously

cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with

gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, other flammable

or explosive substances as they give off vapors

that could ignite or explode.

4. 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 is a safety

rule for all appliances.

5. Before the dryer is removed from service or

discarded, remove the door to the drying

compartment.

6. Do not reach into the dryer if the cylinder is

revolving.

7. Do not install or store the dryer where it will be

exposed to water and/or weather.

8. Do not tamper with the controls.

9. 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.

10. Do not use fabric softeners or products to

eliminate static unless recommended by the

manufacturer of the fabric softener or product.

11. To reduce the risk of fire, DO NOT DRY plastics

or articles containing foam rubber or similarly

textured rubberlike materials.

12. ALWAYS clean the lint filter after every load. A

layer of lint in the filter reduces drying efficiency

and prolongs drying time.

Indicates an imminently hazardous

situation that, if not avoided, will cause

severe personal injury or death.

DANGER

Indicates a hazardous situation that, if not

avoided, could cause severe personal

injury or death.

WARNING

Indicates a hazardous situation that, if not

avoided, may cause minor or moderate

personal injury or property damage.

CAUTION

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock,

or injury to persons when using your

dryer, follow these basic precautions:

W034

WARNING

Safety Information

513006

13. Keep area around the exhaust opening and

adjacent surrounding area free from the

accumulation of lint, dust and dirt.

14. The interior of the dryer and the exhaust duct

should be cleaned periodically by qualified

service personnel.

15. If not installed, operated and maintained in

accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions

or if there is damage to or mishandling of this

product’s components, use of this product could

expose you to substances in the fuel or from fuel

combustion which can cause death or serious

illness and which are known to the State of

California to cause cancer, birth defects or other

reproductive harm.

16. 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.

17. Do not put articles soiled with vegetable or

cooking oil in the dryer, as these oils may not be

removed during washing. Due to the remaining

oil, the fabric may catch on fire by itself.

18. To reduce the risk of fire, DO NOT put clothes

which have traces of any flammable substances

such as machine oil, flammable chemicals,

thinner, etc., or anything containing wax or

chemicals such as in mops and cleaning cloths, or

anything dry-cleaned at home with a dry-

cleaning solvent in the dryer.

19. Use the dryer only for its intended purpose,

drying clothes.

20. Always disconnect the electrical power to the

dryer before attempting service. Disconnect the

power cord by grasping the plug, not the cord.

21. If supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by

a special cord or assembly available from the

manufacturer or its service agent.

22. Install this dryer according to the

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS. All

connections for electrical power, grounding and

gas supply must comply with local codes and be

made by licensed personnel when required. Do

not do it yourself unless you know how!

23. Remove laundry immediately after the dryer

stops.

24. 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).

25. 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.

26. ALWAYS follow the fabric care instructions

supplied by the garment manufacturer.

27. Never operate the dryer with any guards and/or

panels removed.

28. DO NOT operate the dryer with missing or

broken parts.

29. DO NOT bypass any safety devices.

30. DO NOT operate dryers if the units have been

separated.

31. 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.

IMPORTANT: Solvent vapors from dry-cleaning

machines create acids when drawn through the

heater of the drying unit. These acids are corrosive

to the dryer as well as to the laundry load being

dried. Be sure make-up air is free of solvent vapors.

IMPORTANT: Have your dryer installed properly.

Don’t do it yourself unless you know how!

NOTE: The WARNING and IMPORTANT

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS appearing in this

manual are not meant to cover all possible

conditions and situations that may occur. 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.

Installing the Dryer

Step 1: Position and Level the Dryer

Install dryer before washer. This allows room for

attaching exhaust duct.

Install the four rubber feet (in accessories bag).

Select a location with a solid floor. Dryers installed in

residential garages must be elevated 18 inches (46 cm)

above the floor.

No other fuel burning appliance should be installed in

the same closet with the dryer.

The dryer unit must not be installed or stored in an

area where it will be exposed to water and/or weather.

The dryer needs sufficient clearance and an adequate

air supply for proper operation and ventilation, and for

easierinstallation and servicing. (Minimum clearances

are shown in Figure 2).
