IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
(SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS)
1. Read all instructions before using the dryer.
2. Refer to the GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS in
the INSTALLATION manual for the proper
grounding of the dryer.
3. Do not dry articles that have been previously
cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with
gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, other flammable
or explosive substances as they give off vapors
that could ignite or explode.
4. 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 is a safety
rule for all appliances.
5. Before the dryer is removed from service or
discarded, remove the door to the drying
compartment.
6. Do not reach into the dryer if the cylinder is
revolving.
7. Do not install or store the dryer where it will be
exposed to water and/or weather.
8. Do not tamper with the controls.
9. Do not repair or replace any part of the dryer, or
attempt any servicing unless specifically
recommended in the user-maintenance
instructions or in published user-repair
instructions that you understand and have the
skills to carry out.
10. Do not use fabric softeners or products to
eliminate static unless recommended by the
manufacturer of the fabric softener or product.
11. To reduce the risk of fire, DO NOT DRY plastics
or articles containing foam rubber or similarly
textured rubberlike materials.
12. ALWAYS clean the lint filter after every load. A
layer of lint in the filter reduces drying efficiency
and prolongs drying time.
13. Keep area around the exhaust opening and
adjacent surrounding area free from the
accumulation of lint, dust and dirt.
14. The interior of the dryer and the exhaust duct
should be cleaned periodically by qualified
service personnel.
15. If not installed, operated and maintained in
accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions
or if there is damage to or mishandling of this
product’s components, use of this product could
expose you to substances in the fuel or from fuel
combustion which can cause death or serious
illness and which are known to the State of
California to cause cancer, birth defects or other
reproductive harm.
16. Dryer will not operate with the loading door
open. DO NOT by-pass 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.
17. Do not put articles soiled with vegetable or
cooking oil in the dryer, as these oils may not be
removed during washing. Due to the remaining
oil, the fabric may catch on fire by itself.
18. To reduce the risk of fire, DO NOT put clothes
which have traces of any flammable substances
such as machine oil, flammable chemicals,
thinner, etc., or anything containing wax or
chemicals such as in mops and cleaning cloths, or
anything dry-cleaned at home with a dry-
cleaning solvent in the dryer.
19. Use the dryer only for its intended purpose,
drying clothes.
20. Always disconnect the electrical power to the
dryer before attempting service. Disconnect the
power cord by grasping the plug, not the cord.
21. Replace worn power cords and/or loose plugs.
22. Install this dryer according to the
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS. All
connections for electrical power, grounding and
gas supply must comply with local codes and be
made by licensed personnel when required. Do
not do it yourself unless you know how!
23. Remove laundry immediately after the dryer
stops.
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or
injury to persons when using your dryer,
follow these basic precautions:
W034
WARNING

4504524
24. 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).
25. Do not tumble fiber glass 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 fiber glass.
26. ALWAYS follow the fabric care instructions
supplied by the garment manufacturer.
27. Never operate the dryer with any guards and/or
panels removed.
28. DO NOT operate the dryer with missing or
broken parts.
29. DO NOT by-pass any safety devices.
30. 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.
IMPORTANT: Solvent vapors from dry-cleaning
machines create acids when drawn through the heater
of the drying unit. These acids are corrosive to the
dryer as well as to the laundry load being dried. Be
sure make-up air is free of solvent vapors.
IMPORTANT: Have your dryer installed properly.
Don’t do it yourself unless you know how!
NOTE: The WARNING and IMPORTANT
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS appearing in this manual
are not meant to cover all possible conditions and
situations that may occur. 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.

minutes the igniter will again attempt gas ignition.
All Models
After either dryer has operated for approximately five
minutes, observe burner flame. Adjust the air shutter to
obtain a soft, uniform blue flame. (A lazy, yellow tipped
flame indicates lack of air. A harsh, roaring, very blue
flame indicates too much air.) Adjust the air shutter as
follows:
1. Loosen the air shutter lockscrew.
2. Turn the air shutter to the left to get a luminous
yellow tipped flame, then turn it back slowly to the
right to obtain a steady soft blue flame.
3. After the air shutter is adjusted for proper flame,
tighten the air shutter lockscrew securely.

Electrical Requirements . . .
(Electric Dryers)
(120/240 Volt, 60 Hertz, 3-Wire Installation)
(120/208 Volt, 60 Hertz, 3-Wire Installation)
NOTE: The wiring diagram is located behind the
control panel, inside the control cabinet.
Grounding And Wiring Instructions
•Each dryer must be connected to a grounded metal,
permanent wiring system; or an equipment-grounding
conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and
connected to the equipment-grounding terminal or lead
on each dryer.
•Each dryer has its own terminal block that must be
connected to a separate branch, 60 Hertz, single phase
circuit, AC (alternating current) circuit, fused at 30
Amperes (the circuit must be fused on both sides of the
line). ELECTRICAL SERVICE FOR THE DRYER
UNIT SHOULD BE OF MAXIMUM RATED
VOLTAGE LISTED ON THE NAMEPLATE. DO
NOT CONNECT DRYER TO 110, 115, OR 120
VOLT CIRCUIT. Heating elements are available for
field installation in dryer units which are to be
connected to electrical service of different voltage than
that listed on nameplate, such as 208 Volt.
•If branch circuit to dryer unit is fifteen feet (4.50 m) or
less in length, use U.L. (Underwriters Laboratories)
listed No. 10 A.W.G. wire (copper wire only), or as
required by local codes. If over fifteen feet (4.50 m),
use U.L. (Underwriters Laboratories) listed No. 8
A.W.G. wire (copper wire only), or as required by local
codes. Allow sufficient slack in wiring so dryer can be
moved from its normal location when necessary.
•The power cord (pigtail) connection between wall
receptacle and dryer unit terminal block IS NOT
supplied with dryer unit. Type of pigtail and gauge of
wire must conform to local codes and with instructions
mentioned on the following pages.
The method of wiring the dryer unit is optional and
subject to local code requirements. See examples below.
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or
personal injury, all wiring and grounding
MUST conform with the latest edition of the
National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70 or the
Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1, and
such local regulations as might apply. It is the
customer’s responsibility to have the wiring
and fuses checked by a qualified electrician
to make sure the laundry room has adequate
electrical power to operate the dryer.

Electrical Connection . . .
(Three-Wire Power Cord)
1. Remove the screw and terminal block access cover
from the rear of the dryer unit cabinet.
2. Insert ends of direct wire through power supply hole
(containing proper strain relief) in rear of dryer unit
cabinet. See following page. Connect the power
cord,or direct wiring, to the appropriate terminal
block terminals using the three wire-binding
(10-32x3/8") screws from the accessories pack in
the envelope shipped inside the dryer unit
cylinder. If the dryer unit had previously been
connected with a four-wire power cord, remove the
four-wire power cord by reversing procedures under
Four-Wire Power Cord instructions.
IMPORTANT: Use only a U.L. listed No. 10 AWG
(copper wire only) three conductor power supply cord
kit rated 240 Volts (minimum) 30 Amperes and
labeled as suitable for use in a clothes dryer unit.
3. Tighten these wire-binding screws firmly.
IMPORTANT: Failure to tighten these screws firmly
may result in wire failure at the terminal block.
4. Secure the strain relief to the power cord, or wires,
where they enter the dryer unit cabinet.
5. Check the continuity of the ground connection before
plugging the cord into an outlet. Use an acceptable
indicating device connected to the center grounding
pin of the plug and the green screw on the back of the
cabinet.
6. Reinstall access cover and screw.
The dryer unit is grounded to neutral
conductor at the terminal block. If local
codes do not permit grounding through the
neutral, proceed as shown on Four Wire
Connection instructions.
