& WARNING - RISK OF FIRE

To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or injury to persons when using this dryer, comply with the basic warnings

listed below. Failure to comply with these warnings could result in serious personal injuries.

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't follow these Important Safety Instructions:

PREVENT FIRE

*Do not dry items that have been previously cleaned in,

soaked in, or spotted with gasoline, cleaning solvents,

kerosene, waxes, etc. Do not store these items on or

near the dryer. These substances give off vapors that

could ignite or explode.

,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 fire.

Do not dry articles containing rubber, plastic or similar ma-

terials such as bras, galoshes, bath mats, rugs, bibs, baby

pants, plastic bags and pillows that may melt or burn.

Some rubber materials, when heated, can under certain

circumstances produce fire by spontaneous combustion.

FIRE HAZARD

A clothes dryer produces combustible lint, The dryer

must be connected to an outdoors exhaust. Regularly

inspect the outdoor exhaust opening and remove any

accumulation of lint around the opening and in the

* Clean the lint screen before or after each load. The in-

terior of the dryer, lint screen housing and exhaust duct

should be cleaned approximately every 18 months by

qualified service personnel. An excessive amount of lint

build-up in these areas could result in inefficient drying

and possible fire. See Care and Cleaning.

Do not operate the dryer if the lint screen is blocked,

damaged or missing. Fire hazard, overheating and

damage to fabrics can occur.

Do not obstruct the flow of ventilating air. Do not stack

or place laundry or throw rugs against the front or back

of the dryer.

Do not spray any type of aerosol into, on or near dryer

at any time.

Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate

static unless recommended by the manufacturer of the

fabric softener or product.

Do not continue to use the dryer is you hear squeaking,

grinding, rubbing or other unusual noises. This could

be a sign of mechanical breakdown and lead to fire or

serious injury. Contact a qualified technician immedi-

ately.

Failure to comply with these warnings could result in

fire, explosion, serious bodily injury and/or damage to

the rubber or plastic parts of the dryer.

PROTECT CHILDREN

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

supervision of children is necessary when the dryer is

used near children. As children grow, teach them the

proper, safe use of all appliances.

o Destroy the carton, plastic bag and other packing ma-

terials after the dryer is unpacked. Children might use

them for play. Cartons covered with rugs, bedspreads

or plastic sheets can become airtight chambers.

Keep laundry products out of children's reach. To pre-

vent personal injury, observe all warnings on product

labels.

• Before the dryer is removed from service or discarded,

remove the dryer door to prevent accidental entrapment.

Failure to comply with these warnings could result in

serious personal injuries.

PREVENT INJURY

•To prevent shock hazard and assure stability during

operation, the dryer must be installed and electrically

grounded by a qualified service person in accordance with

local codes, Installation instructions are packed in the

dryer for the installer's reference. Refer to INSTALLATION

INSTRUCTIONSfor detailed grounding procedures. If the

dryer is moved to a new location, have it checked and

reinstalled by a qualified service person.

• To prevent personal injury or damage to the dryer, the

electrical power cord of a gas dryer must be plugged into

a properly grounded and polarized 3-prong outlet. The

third grounding prong must never be removed. Never

ground the dryer to a gas pipe. Do not use an extension

cord or an adaptor plug.

ALWAYSdisconnect the dryer from the electrical supply

before attempting any service or cleaning. Failureto do so

can result in electrical shock or injury.

• Do not use any type spray cleanser when cleaning dryer

interior. Hazardous fumes or electrical shock could occur.

• To prevent injury, do not reach into the dryer if the drum

is moving. Wait until the dryer has stopped completely

before reaching into the drum.

Normal Operating Sounds

You may or may not hear the following sounds from your new

dryer:

A. WATER VALVE (Steam models only.) The flow of water is

controlled by electric solenoids. During operation there may

be a clicking sound as the valve opens and closes to control

the water flow.

B. SUSPENSION ROLLERS The dryer drum is supported by a

set of suspension rollers. At times there may be a thumping

or rolling sound when the dryer starts. This may happen if

the dryer has not been in use for a period of time, or after a

heavy load has remained in the dryer drum for an extended

period, creating a temporary fiat spot on the edge of the

roller. The noise should dissipate as the dryer operates and

the fiat spots smooth out.

C. AIR FLOW SYSTEM Your dryer is equipped with a high

volume air handling system. In some installations there may

be some sounds associated with air movement throughout

the dryer, including the air duct, blower, and exhaust system.

This is normal and can vary with load size and type.

D. GAS VALVE (Gas models only.) The flow of gas is controlled

by electric solenoids. During operation there may be a clicking

sound as the valve opens and closes to control the gas flow.

E. GAS BURNER (Gas models only.) When the burner is

operating, there may be sounds generated as the air flow

mixes with the gas flame. This noise is normal and will only

occur when the gas is ignited in the combustion tube.

Operating Your Dryer

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or injury to

persons, read the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

in this Use and Care Guide before operating your dryer.

(Mesh bag not included.)

1Prepare load for drying,

- Dry items of similar fabric, weight and construction

in the same load.

- Separate dark items from light=colored items. Sepa=

rate items that shed lint from those that attract lint.

- Check for stains which may not have been removed

in washing. Repeat stain removal process and wash

again before drying. Dryer heat may permanently

set some stains.

- Place delicate or small items in a mesh bag.

- Be sure buckles, buttons and trim are heatproof

and won't damage the drum finish. Close zippers;

fasten hooks and Velcro<_>-likefasteners. Tie strings

and sashes to prevent snagging and tangling.

Operating Your Dryer, continued

2Check that the lint filter is dean and in place.

3 Load the dryer and close the door.

- Load items loosely. The average wet load wiii

fillthe drum 1/3 to 1/2 full. Items need room to

tumble freely for even drying and less wrinkling.

- If desired, place a dryer fabric softener sheet on

top of the load at the beginning of the cycle.

- To save energy and time and avoid uneven drying

and wrinkling, do not overload the dryer.

•When drying large items, dry only two or three

items at a time. Fill out the load with small and

medium sized items.

o For delicate or very small loads, add two or three

similar items to improve tumbling action.

4Select the appropriate cycle and settings for

each load.

Over-drying can cause wrinkles, shrinkage, lint,

harshness and a build up of static electricity.

Turn the cycle selector knob in either direction to

select the cycle desired. The indicator for that cycle

will be illuminated.

The estimated drying time for Auto Dry cycles or

the actual drying time for Timed Dry cycles will be

Cycle Selection, continued

Auto Dry Cycles

Auto Dry cycles take the guesswork out of selecting the

correct drying time for each load. Moisture sensing bars

at the back of the dryer drum sense the moisture level of

the load as it tumbles through the heated air. With Auto

Dry cycles, the load will automatically be dried at the

selected temperature to the desired dryness level.

Auto Dry cycles save time and energy and protect fabrics.

When the load has reached the selected dryness level, it will

continue to tumble during a cool down period. This helps

reduce wrinkling and makes items easier to handle during

unloading.

Drying time varies depending on size and dampness of

load and fabric type. If the load is too small or almost dry,

the moisture sensing bars may not detect enough moisture

to continue the cycle and the cycle may end after a few

minutes. If this occurs, select a Timed Dry cycle.

Room temperature and humidity, type of installation and

electrical voltage or gas pressure can also affect drying time.
