DRYERSAFETY

Your safety and the safety of others are very important.

We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety

messages.

This is the safety alert symbol.

This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.

All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word "DANGER" or "WARNING."

These words mean:

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't immediately

follow instructions.

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't follow

instructions.

ABsafety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can

happen if the instructions are not followed.

|,, "Risk of Fire"

-Clothes dryer installation must be performed by a qualified installer.

-install the clothes dryer according to the manufacturer's instructions and local codes.

-Do not install a clothes dryer with flexible plastic venting materials or flexible metal

(foil type) duct. If flexible metal duct is installed, it must be of a specific type identified

by the appliance manufacturer as suitable for use with clothes dryers. Flexible venting

materials are known to collapse, be easily crushed, and trap lint. These conditions will

obstruct clothes dryer airflow and increase the risk of fire.

-To reduce the risk of severe injury or death, follow all installation instructions.

-Save these instructions.

IMPORTANTSAFETYINSTRUCTIONS

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

including the following:

[] Read all instructions before using the dryer.

[] 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 that have been previously cleaned in,

washed in, soaked in, or spotted with gasoline, dry=

cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive

substances as they give off vapors that could ignite or

explode.

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

supervision of children is necessary when the dryer is

used near children.

[] Before the dryer is removed from service or discarded,

remove the door to the drying compartment.

[] Do not reach into the dryer if the drum is moving.

[] Do not install or store the dryer where it will be exposed

to the weather.

[] Do not tamper with controls.

[] Do not repair or replace any part of the dryer or attempt

any servicing unless specifically recommended in this

Use and Care Guide or in published user-repair

instructions that you understand and have the skills to

carry out.

[] Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static

unless recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric

softener or product.

[] Do not use heat to dry articles containing foam rubber or

similarly textured rubber=like materials.

[] Clean lint screen before or after each load.

[] Keep area around the exhaust opening and adjacent

surrounding areas free from the accumulation of lint, dust,

and dirt.

[] The interior of the dryer and exhaust vent should be

cleaned periodically by qualified service personnel.

[] See "Electrical Requirements" located in the installation

instructions for grounding instructions.

CHECKYOURVENTSYSTEMFORGOODAiR FLOW

Fire Hazard

Use aheavy metal vent.

Do not use a plastic vent.

Do not use a metal foil vent.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death

or fire.

Good air flow

Along with heat, dryers require good air flow to efficiently

dry laundry. Proper venting will reduce your drying times and

improve your energy savings. See Installation Instructions.

The venting system attached to the dryer plays a big role

in good air flow.

Service calls caused by improper venting are not covered by

the warranty and will be paid by the customer, regardless of

who installed the dryer.

Maintain good air flow by:

[]

[] Cleaning your lint screen before each load.

Replace plastic or foil vent material

with 4" (102 mm) diameter heavy, rigid

vent material.

[] Use the shortest length of vent possible.

[] Use no more than four 90 °elbows in a vent system;

each bend and curve reduces air flow.

Better_

[] Remove lint and debris from the exhaust hood.

[] Remove lint from the entire length of the vent system

at least every 2 years. When cleaning is complete, be

sure to follow the Installation Instructions supplied with

your dryer for final product check.

[] Clear away items from the front of the dryer.

Use Sensor cycles for better fabric care and energy savings

Use the Sensor Cycles to provide the most energy savings and enhanced fabric care from the dryer. During Sensor Cycles, drying air

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 sometimes results in shrinkage, wrinkling, and static due to over-drying.

Use Timed Dry for the occasional damp load that needs a little more drying time or when using the drying rack.

Tips for getting the best performance from your steam dryer

[] Results may vary depending on fabric. 100% cotton [] Cycles that use steam are not recommended for items that

garments with wrinkle-free finish may yield better results than have been starched. Wash any starched or new garments prior

those without. 100% cotton items may require additional to using cycles that use steam.

touching up after cycles that use steam. [] The Refresh Cycle is best for reducing light wrinkles from loads

[] Use of fabric softener sheet is not recommended with cycles left in the dryer too long.

that use steam. It may cause temporary staining on clothes.

CONTROLPANELAND FEATURES

Not all features and cycles are available on all models,

NOTE: The control panel features a sensitive surface that responds

to a light touch of your finger, To ensure your selections are regBtered,

touch the control panel with your finger tip, not your fingernail. When

selecting a setting or option, simply touch its name.
