Important Safety Instructions

Save These Instructions
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, serious injury or death to persons when using your dryer, follow these basic precautions: W130

  • Read all instructions before using the dryer.

  • Install this dryer according to the INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS. Refer to the EARTH/GROUND INSTRUCTIONS in the INSTALLATION manual for the proper earth/ground connection of the dryer. All connections for electrical power, earth/ ground and gas supply must comply with local codes and be made by licensed personnel when required. Do not do it yourself.

  • Do not install or store the dryer where it will be exposed to water and/or weather.

  • Do not dry articles that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with gasoline or machine oils, vegetable or cooking oils, cleaning waxes or chemicals, dry-cleaning solvents, thinner, anything containing chemicals such as in mops and cleaning cloths, or other flammable or explosive substances as they give off vapors that could ignite, explode or cause fabric to catch on fire by itself.

  • 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. To reduce the risk of fire due to contaminated loads, the final part of a tumble dryer cycle occurs without heat (cool down period). Avoid stopping a tumble dryer before the end of the drying cycle unless all items are quickly removed and spread out so that the heat is dissipated.

  • Items that have been soiled with substances such as cooking oil, acetone, alcohol, petrol, kerosene, spot removers, turpentine, waxes and wax removers, should be washed in hot water with an extra amount of detergent before being dried in the tumble dryer.

  • To reduce the risk of fire, DO NOT DRY plastics or articles containing foam or latex rubber or similarly textured rubberlike materials, such as shower caps, water proof textiles, rubber-backed articles, and clothes or pillows filled with foam rubber pads.

  • 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.

  • 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 appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. This is a safety rule for all appliances.

  • Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision.

  • Children less than three years should be kept away unless continuously supervised.

  • Do not reach into the dryer if the cylinder is revolving.

  • Use the dryer only for its intended purpose, drying clothes. ALWAYS follow the fabric care instructions supplied by the garment manufacturer and only use the dryer drum to dry textiles that have been washed in water.
    NOTE: The WSTRUCTIONS appearing in this manual are not meant to cover all possible conditions and situations that may occurcautions that are located on the machine. They are intended to provide instruction for safe use of the machine. Common sense, caution and care must be exercised when installing, maintaining, or operating the dryer

  • 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).

  • Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static unless recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric softener or product. Alwmanufder

  • Remove laundry immediately after the dryer stops.

  • DO NOT operate the dryer if it is smoking, grinding or has missing or broken parts or removed guards and/or panels. DO NOT tamper with the controls or bypass any safety devices. • DO NOT operate individual units if they have been separated from a stack unit.

  • 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.

  • ALWAYS clean the lint filter after every load. A layer of lint in the filter reduces drying efficiency and prolongs drying time. Keep area around the exhaust opening and adjacent surrounding area free from the accumulation of lint, dust and dirt. The interior of the dryer and the exhaust duct should be cleaned periodically by qualified service personnel.

  • Do not repair or replace any part of the dryer, or attempt any servicing unless specifically recommended in the usermaintenance instructions or in published user-repair instructions that you understand and have the skills to carry out. ALWAYS disconnect the electrical power to the dryer before attempting service. Disconnect the power cord by grasping the plug, not the cord.

  • Electric Models: If supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a special cord or assembly available from the manufacturer or its service agent.

  • Gas Models: If supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.

  • Before the dryer is removed from service or discarded, remove the door to the drying compartment.

  • 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.

NOTE: The WARNING and IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS appearing in this manual are not meant to cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. Observe and be aware of other labels and precautions that are located on the machine. They are intended to provide instruction for safe use of the machine. 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.

Before Drying

Energy Saving Tips

  • Make sure the lint filter is always clean.
  • Do not overload the dryer.
  • Do not overdry items.
  • Remove items to be ironed while still damp.
  • Large loads of similar fabrics dry the most efficiently. However, dry permanent press in smaller loads to prevent wrinkling.
  • Use the correct cycle for the type of fabric being dried.
  • Locate your dryer so the exhaust duct is as short and straight as possible.
  • Do not open the door during the drying cycle.
  • Plan to do your laundry on low humidity days; your clothes will dry faster.
  • Dry multiple loads of clothes one right after another so dryer interior does not have to be reheated for each load.

Helps and Hints
WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire, explosion, serious injury or death, clothes which have traces of any flammable substances such as cooking oil, machine oil, flammable chemicals, thinner, etc. must not be put into the dryer.

  • The directions for installation and proper exhausting are given in the Installation Instructions which are included with the dryer.
  • Static electricity may cause garments of synthetic fibers (as in lingerie) to cling together, especially if they are overdried. The use of a liquid fabric softener in the rinse  ater of the washer, or a fabric softener sheet in the dryer, will soften clothes and reduce static electricity.
  • Do not wash or dry clothes that shed lint in the same load with permanent press or knit garments.
  • Remove permanent press loads immediately after dryer stops.
  • Follow the care labels on FLAME RETARDANT, SCOTCHGUARD™,etc., garments for proper washing and drying.
  • If loads should be damp for ironing, use the Damp Dryness setting, in an Automatic cycle.
  1. Sort by color.

  2. Separate lint shedding fabrics and lint receiving fabrics.
    Towels, flannels, chenille, cottons, rugs, etc., shed lint. Corduroys, knits (including socks), permanent press, and synthetics attract lint.

  3. Separate no heat, low heat and high heat items.
    In any kind of drying, lightweight fabrics will dry faster than heavyweight fabrics. If mixed loads are dried together (such as sheets and towels), remove the lighter weight fabrics when they are dry to prevent overdrying and wrinkling. The best method is to dry clothes which require the same time, temperature or dryness level in the same load.

Load
WARNING
Do not wash or dry items soiled with vegetable or cooking oils. Some oils may remain after washing and may cause the fabric to catch on fire by itself. W527

  • Do not overload your dryer. Bulk, not weight, determines the load size. If the dryer is overloaded, it could cause discoloration or permanent heat damage to the load.
  • There should be space in the dryer for the clothes to tumble freely and help to reduce wrinkles.
  • Large and small pieces together make up loads which will tumble well. Permanent press loads should be smaller to provide room for tumbling. Proper tumbling allows for  ewer wrinkles.
  • A load can be too small. Just a few small pieces will not tumble properly. They will take longer to dry and they may be wrinkled. For small loads, add a couple of large towels  or non lint shedding items to aid in tumbling.
  • The following illustrations show the ideal load sizes for fabrics. The average load will fill the cylinder one third to half full when wet.

Troubleshooting

Try these troubleshooting tips before making a service call.
They may save you time and money.

Dryer Symptom Possible Cause/Solution
Dryer won’t start • Make sure the power cord is plugged all the way into the

electrical outlet.
• Make sure loading door is closed.
• Press Start/Pause button to start dryer.
• Make sure the laundry room fuse(s) isn’t blown or loose, or circuit breakers aren’t open.
• The dryer itself does not have an electrical fuse. An electric dryer has an electrical circuit with two fuses.
• Check if motor overload protector has cycled. Wait 10 minutes and try again.
Dryer won’t heat| • Electric dryers only – Some homes may have two fuses or circuit breakers for an electric dryer; both fuses or circuit  breakers should be checked. Make sure the laundry room fuse(s) isn’t blown or loose, or that the circuit breakers aren’t open.
• Make sure control is not in Cooling part of cycle, Extended LED is lit, or that the Temp selection is not set to No Heat.
• Gas dryer only – Make sure equipment and main gas line valve is turned on.
• Check exhaust duct to outside to see if it is kinked, blocked or needs cleaning.
• Check weather hood to make sure flapper moves freely, has not been pushed in or has not been blocked.
Dryer doesn’t dry clothes satisfactorily| • Check exhaust duct to outside to see if it is kinked, blocked or needs cleaning.
• Check weather hood to make sure flapper moves freely, has not been pushed in or has not been blocked.
• Auto-Sensing cycle – Adjust Dryness selection.
• Manual cycle – Allow more or less time.
• Clean the lint filter.
• Make sure the load isn’t too small. Small loads may not tumble properly or dry evenly.
• The Auto-Sensing cycles are not suggested to be used for small loads such as two small towels. For those loads, use the Time Dry cycle.
• Check load being dried. Heavy items dried with lightweight items will not dry as quickly as the rest of the load.
• Refer to Sort section for proper sorting information.
Dryer is noisy| • Check dryer for foreign objects (nails, coins, bobby pins, metal, plastic toys, etc.). Remove items from dryer.
• Make sure dryer is level. Uneven leveling can cause vibration.
• Normal operating sounds include the heat source going on and off and the humming of air moving through the dryer and exhaust system.
Clothes are too wrinkled| • Check heat setting. Overdrying can cause wrinkling.
• Check load size. Large loads may not tumble properly and may cause wrinkling.
Clothes have odor| • Check room for odors before drying clothes. Any odor (fried foods, paint, varnish, cleaners, burning wood, etc.) will transfer to clothing as the dryer draws air from the room.
• Ventilate room before drying clothes.
Cycle advances too slowly| • When in an Auto-Sensing cycle, the time it takes depends on the type and size of the load being dried. When clothing has more moisture, the cycle takes longer than when the clothes are more dry.
Er,ro on digital display| • The dryer’s motor overload protector has cycled.
• The control can be cleared by pressing the Start/Pause button and the dryer can be restarted by pressing the Start/Pause button again.
• If this code is displayed again, remove the dryer from use and call a service person.
