You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't follow these Important Safety Instructions:
ii
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 aflow 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
INSTRUCTIONS for 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. Failure to 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.
PREVENT INJURY AND DAHAGE TO THE DRYER
-All repairs and servicing must be performed by an
authorized servicer unless specifically recommended in
this Owner's Guide. Use only authorized factory parts.
Do not tamper with controls.
Do not install or store the dryer where it will be ex-
posed to the weather.
A thermal limiter switch automatically turns off the
motor in the unlikely event of an overheated situation
(electric dryers only). A service technician must replace
the thermal limiter switch after correcting the fault.
Failure to comply with these warnings could result in
serious personal injuries.
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement ACt requires the Governor of California to publish a list of
substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm, and requires businesses to
warn customer of potential exposure to such substances. Included in this list are soot and carbon monoxide, both of

Normal Operating Sounds
You may or may not hear the following sounds from your
new dryer:
A. 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 flat spot on the edge
of the roller. The noise should dissipate as the dryer
operates and the flat spots smooth out.
B. 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.
C. 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.
D. 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.
Do not continue to use the dryer if 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 qua!!fied techn!cian !mmediate!y- ......
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,
o 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®-Iike fasteners. Tie strings
and sashes to prevent snagging and tangling.
Operating Your Dryer, continued
2 Check that the lint filter is dean and in place,
3 Load the dryer and close the door,
-Load items loosely. The average wet load will
fill the 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.
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
displayed.
- A suitable drying temperature, dryness level and
options will automatically be indicated for the cycle
selected. See the "Dryer Settings Chart" for more
details.
- To change the drying temperature and dryness
level, press the Temperature or Dryness buttons to
scroll to the desired settings.
- To select or delete an option, press Options; then,
while the indicator is blinking, press Select. The
indicator will light when the option has been se-
lected. It will no longer be lighted when the option
has been deleted.
If a setting is not available for the cycle selected, the
indicator will not light.
- Adjustments made to a cycle will be remembered
and recalled each time that cycle is selected in the
future.
- To return to factory settings, press the Start/Pause
and Select buttons at the same time and hold until
the signal sounds.

{TA []
To change the cycle once it has begun, press the cancel
button before selecting a new cycle, lust turning the
cycle selector knob to another selection will not change
the cycle. If the selection is changed after the cycle
starts, the indicator lights will blink, the signal will beep
and "Err" will be displayed. The signal will beep and the
status lights will flash, but the original cycle will continue.
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.
The estimated drying time will be displayed for about 5
minutes. Then the outside of the display will light up in a
circular track to indicate the drying time is automatically
being determined by the sensors. When the load has
reached the selected dryness level, it will continue to
tumble during a coo! 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.

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
open!ng and in Lhesurr°unding area: ...........................................................................................
Clean the lint filter after every load.
Do not store or place laundry products on top of
dryer at any time, They can damage the finish or
controls,
To reduce risk of fire or serious injury to persons or property,
comply with the basic warnings listed in the Important
0ose tisted below: .........................................................................................................................
- Before cleaning the dryer interior, unplug the electrical
power cord to avoid electrical shock hazards.
• Do not use any type spray cleanser when cleaning the dryer
interior. Hazardous fumes or electrical shock could occur.
INSIDE
o Clean the lint filter after every load. Lint build-up on the
filter restricts air flow, which causes longer drying times.
The filter is located at the bottom of the door opening. Re-
move by pulling straight up. Remove the lint and replace
the filter.
Occasionally a waxy build-up may form on the lint filter
and/or moisture sensing bars from using dryer-added
fabric softener sheets. To remove this build-up, wash them
with warm, soapy water. Dry the filter thoroughly and
replace. Do not operate the dryer without the lint filter in
place.
If the dryer drum becomes stained from noncolorfast
fabrics, clean the drum with a damp cloth and a mild liquid
household cleanser. Remove cleanser residue before dry-
ing the next load.
Every 18 months an authorized servicer should clean the dry-
er cabinet interior and exhaust duct. These areas can collect
lint and dust over time. An excessive amount of lint build-up
could result in inefficient drying and possible fire hazard.
OUTSIDE
Clean the cabinet with mild soap and water. Never use
harsh, gritty or abrasive cleansers.
If the cabinet becomes stained, clean with diluted chlo-
rine bleach (1 part bleach to 8 parts water). Rinse several
times with clear water.
Remove glue residue from tape or labels with a mixture of
warm water and mild detergent. Or, touch residue with the
sticky side of the tape or label.
When cleaning chrome parts use a window cleaner with
ammonia or mild soap and water.
Before moving the dryer, place a strip of cardboard or thin
fiberboard under the front leveling legs to prevent damage
to the floor.
