SAFETY and PRECAUTIONS
www.insigniaproducts.com
• There are many highly flammable items used in
homes, such as acetone, denatured alcohol,
gasoline, kerosene, some liquid household
cleaners, some spot removers, turpentine, waxes,
and wax removers.
• Do not dry items containing foam rubber (may be
labeled latex foam) or similarly textured
rubber-like materials on a heat setting. Heated
foam rubber materials can, under certain
circumstances, produce fire by spontaneous
combustion.
Basic Precautions
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1Read all instructions before using the appliance.
2Use this appliance only for its intended purpose
as described in this User Guide.
3Before use, your dryer must be properly
installed as described in this guide.
4Always follow the fabric care instructions
supplied by the garment manufacturer.
5Do 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.
6Do not use your dryer to dry clothes which have
traces of any flammable substance, such as
vegetable oil, cooking oil, machine oil,
flammable chemicals, thinner, etc., or anything
containing wax or chemicals, such as mops and
cleaning clothes. Flammable substances may
cause the fabric to catch fire by itself.
7Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable
vapors and liquids near this or any other
appliance.
8Do not allow children to play on or in the
appliance. Close supervision of children is
necessary when the appliance is used near
children.
9When discarding or storing your old clothes
dryer, remove the door.
10 Do not reach into the appliance if the drum is
moving.
11 Do not install or store this appliance where it
will be exposed to the weather or freezing
temperatures.
12 Do not tamper with the controls.
13 Do not repair or replace any part of the
appliance or attempt any servicing unless it is
specifically recommended in the
user-maintenance instructions or in published
user-repair instructions that you understand
and have the skills to carry out.
14 To avoid the risk of fire, unplug the power cord if
your dryer is to be left for an extended period of
time, such as during vacations.
15 Packaging material can be dangerous for
children. There is a risk of suffocation! Keep all
packaging away from children.
16 Always check the inside of the dryer for foreign
objects before loading laundry. Keep the door
closed when not in use.
17 Do not use fabric softeners or products to
eliminate static unless recommended by the
manufacturer of the fabric softener or product.
18 Clean the lint screen before or after each load.
19 Keep the area around the exhaust opening and
surrounding areas free from lint, dust, and dirt.
20 The interior of your dryer and the exhaust duct
should be cleaned periodically by qualified
service personnel.
21 This appliance must be properly grounded.
Never plug the power cord into a receptacle that
is not grounded adequately and in accordance
with local and national codes. See Electric
requirements—Canada only on page 14 or
Electric requirements—U.S. only on page 15 and
Grounding requirements on page 16.
22 Make sure that pockets are free from small
irregularly shaped hard objects and foreign
material (such as coins, knives, and pins). These
objects could damage your dryer.
23 Do not use heat to dry articles containing foam
rubber or similarly textured rubber-like
materials.
24 Gas leaks may occur in your system, resulting in
a dangerous situation.
25 Gas leaks may not be detected by smell alone.
26 Gas suppliers recommend that you purchase
and install a UL approved gas detector.
1Do not sit on top of the dryer.
2Because of continuing product improvements,
we reserve the right to change specifications
without notice. For complete details, see the
installation instructions in this User Guide before
selecting cabinets, making cutouts, or
beginning installation.
3Do not dry clothing with large buckles, buttons,
or other heavy metal or solid things.
4Install and use in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions.
5Residual oil on clothing can ignite
spontaneously. The potential for spontaneous
combustion increases when items containing
vegetable oil or cooking oil are exposed to heat.
If this heat cannot escape, the items can
become hot enough to catch fire. Piling,
stacking, or storing these kinds of items may
prevent heat from escaping and can create a fire
hazard.
6Take care that children’s fingers are not caught
in the door when closing it. This may result in
injury.

Exhausting requirements
• Do not assemble the duct with screws or other fasteners that extend into the duct or that catch lint.
• The exhaust duct should be 4 in. (10.2 cm) in diameter.
• The total length of flexible metal duct should not exceed 7.8 ft. (2.4 m).
• Use only those foil-type flexible ducts, if any, specifically identified for use with your dryer by the manufacturer.
• In the U.S., make sure that the ducts comply with the outline for Clothes Dryer Transition Ducts, Subject 2158A.
See Ducting requirements on page 12 for the maximum duct length and number of bends.
Ducting requirements
Warning
Do not exhaust your dryer into a chimney, a wall, a ceiling, an attic, a crawl
space, or a concealed space in a building.
Your dryer must be exhausted to the outside to reduce the risk of fire when
installed in an alcove or closet.
Exhausting the dryer to the outside prevents large amounts of lint and
moisture from being blown into the room.
Warning
NEVER USE A PLASTIC OR NON-METAL FLEXIBLE DUCT
• If your existing duct work is plastic, non-metal, or combustible, replace it
with metal.
• Use only a metal exhaust duct that is non-flammable to ensure
containment of the exhaust air heat and lint.
Warning
You are responsible for correctly installing the exhaust system.
• Use a 4-inch (10.2 cm) diameter rigid aluminum or rigid galvanized steel duct. Do not use a smaller
duct.
• Ducts larger than 4 inches (10.2 cm) in diameter can result in increased accumulation of lint.
• Lint should be removed regularly.
• If you must use a flexible metal duct, use the type with a stiff sheet metal wall. Do not use a flexible
duct with a thin foil wall. A serious blockage can result if the flexible metal duct is bent too sharply.
• Never install any type of flexible duct in walls, ceilings, or other concealed spaces.
• Keep the exhaust duct as straight and short as possible.
• Secure joints with duct tape. Do not use screws.
• Plastic, flexible ducts can kink, sag, be punctured, reduce airflow, extend drying times, and affect
your dryer’s operation.
• Exhaust systems longer than recommended can extend drying times, affect dryer operations, and
collect lint.
• The exhaust duct should end with an exhaust hood that has a swing-out damper to prevent back
drafts and entry of wildlife. Never use an exhaust hood with a magnetic damper.
• The hood should have at least 12 inches (30.5 cm) of clearance between the bottom of the hood
and the ground or other obstruction. The hood opening should point down.
• Never install a screen over the exhaust outlet.
• To avoid lint buildup, do not exhaust the dryer directly into a window well.
• Do not exhaust under a house or porch.
• If the exhaust duct must run through an unheated area, the duct should be insulated and slope
slightly down towards the exhaust hood to reduce condensation and lint buildup.
• Inspect and clean the interior of the exhaust system at least once a year.
• Unplug the power cord before cleaning.
• Check frequently to make sure that the exhaust hood damper opens and closes freely.
• Check once per month, and clean at least once per year. Note: If your clothes are not getting dry,
check the ducting for obstructions.
• Do not exhaust the dryer into a wall, ceiling, crawl space, or concealed space of a building, gas vent,
or any other common duct or chimney. This could create a fire hazard from the lint expelled by the
dryer.
• Do not use non-metallic flexible ducting.
• To reduce the risk of fire, your dryer MUST BE EXHAUSTED OUTDOORS.
