Important safety instructions

Grounding instructions

A) Grounding instructions for a grounded,

cord-connected appliance

In the event of malfunction or breakdown,

grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock

by providing a path of least resistance for

electric current. This appliance (Canadian

market only) is equipped with a cord having

an equipment-grounding conductor and a

grounding plug. The plug must be plugged

into an appropriate outlet that is properly in-

stalled and grounded in accordance with all

local codes and ordinances.

Warning!

Improper connection of the equipment-

grounding conductor can result in a risk of

electric shock. Check with a qualified electri-

cian or service representative or personnel if

you are in doubt as to whether the appliance

is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug

provided with the appliance (Canadian market

only). If it will not fit the outlet, have a proper

outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

To reduce the risk of fire, this appliance must

be exhausted outdoors or the equivalent. Do

not exhaust into a chimney, wall, ceiling or

concealed space in a building.

B) Grounding instructions for a

permanently connected appliance:

This appliance must be connected to a

grounded metal, permanent wiring system,

or an equipment-grounding conductor must

be run with the circuit conductors and connect-

ed to the equipment-grounding terminal or

lead on the appliance.

Note

This manual does not cover every possible

condition and situation that may occur. Use

common sense and caution when installing,

operating, and maintaining any appliance.

Interrupting a program

You can stop a drying program by:

•Opening the door. The drum will then stop

automatically.

•Pressing the main power switch.

•Press the Stop button for three seconds.

When you want to resume tumble drying,

simply close the door and press the Start

button.

Packing material

Please sort waste materials in accordance

with local guidelines.

Disposal

This machine is manufactured and labeled

for recycling. In order to prevent injuries, the
