DRYER SAFETY
ʼnDo not install or store the dryer where it will be exposed to
the weather.
ʼnDo not tamper with controls.
ʼnClean dryer lint screen before or after each load.
ʼnDo not use this dryer without the lint screen in place.
ʼnDo not repair or replace any part of the dryer or attempt
any servicing unless specically recommended in this Use
and Care Guide or in published user-repair instructions
that you understand and have the skills to carry out.
ʼnFabric softeners, or similar products, should be used as
specied by the fabric softener instructions.
ʼnItems such as foam rubber (latex foam), shower caps,
waterproof textiles, rubber-backed articles, and clothes or
pillows tted with foam rubber pads should not be dried in
the tumble dryer.
ʼnThe nal part of a tumble dryer cycle occurs without
heat (cool-down cycle) to ensure that the articles are left
at a temperature that ensures that the items will not be
damaged.
ʼnWARNING: Never stop 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. (Avoids risk of
spontaneous combustion).
ʼnWARNING: The appliance must not be supplied
through an external switching device, such as a timer, or
connected to a circuit that is regularly switched on and off
by a utility.
ʼnIn case of electrical supply failure, remove the load
quickly and spread it out to avoid risk of spontaneous
combustion.
ʼnKeep area around the exhaust opening and adjacent
surrounding areas free from the accumulation of lint, dust,
and dirt.
ʼnVentilation openings in the base shall not be obstructed by
a carpet or similar object.
ʼnThis appliance is intended, but not limited, to be used in
public areas.
ʼnThis dryer is not intended for use by persons (including
children aged from 8years and above) with reduced
physical, sensory, or mental capabilities, or lack of
experience or knowledge, unless they have been given
supervision or instruction concerning use of the dryer by a
person responsible for their safety.
ʼnBefore the dryer is removed from service or discarded,
remove the door to the dryer compartment.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: To reduce the risk of re, electric shock, or injury to persons when using the dryer, follow basic precautions, including
the following:
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
ʼnRead all instructions before using the dryer.
ʼnThis dryer is intended only for drying clothes and textiles
that have been washed in water. Do not use for any other
purpose.
ʼnWARNING: If you smell gas, do not use the dryer or any
electrical equipment nearby. Warn other people to clear
the area. Contact the dryer owner immediately.
ʼnOil-affected items can ignite spontaneously, especially
when exposed to heat sources such as a tumble dryer.
The items become warm, causing an oxidation reaction
in the oil. Oxidation creates heat. If the heat cannot
escape, the items can become hot enough to catch re.
Piling, stacking or storing oil-affected items can prevent
heat from escaping and so create a re hazard.
ʼnIf it is unavoidable that fabrics that contain vegetable or
cooking oil or that have been contaminated by hair care
products be placed in a tumble dryer, they should rst
be washed in hot water with extra detergent – this will
reduce, but not eliminate the hazard.
ʼnDo not dry articles that have been previously cleaned in,
washed in, soaked in, or spotted with petrol, dry-cleaning
solvents, other ammable, or explosive substances as
they give off vapors that could ignite or explode.
ʼnItems that have been soiled with substances such as
acetone, alcohol, petrol, kerosene, spot removers,
turpentine, waxes, and wax removers should be washed
in hot water with extra detergent before being dried in the
dryer.
ʼnDo not dry unwashed items in the dryer.
ʼnDo not use this dryer if industrial chemicals have been
used for cleaning. The possible presence of residual
quantities of aggressive or decomposed chemicals in
the load may produce damage to the dryer and harmful
fumes.
ʼnDo not allow children to play on or in the dryer. Close
supervision of children is necessary when the dryer is
used near children. Cleaning and user maintenance
shall not be made by children without supervision.
Children of less than 3 years should be kept away unless
continuously supervised.
ʼnIf drum rotation is blocked due to trapped textiles,
disconnect the dryer from the electrical supply before
gently removing the blockage.
ʼnIf the dryer is not heating, or appears to be defective or
damaged, do not use it. Contact the owner.

VENTING REQUIREMENTS
WARNING: To reduce the risk of re, this dryer MUST BE
EXHAUSTED OUTDOORS.
IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
■Following these venting requirements will minimize ducting
air noise.
■Exhaust air must not be discharged into a ue which is used
for exhausting fumes from other appliances burning gas or
other fuels, including open res (i.e. available airow into
the room should match airow out from the room).
■Adequate ventilation must be provided to avoid the back
ow of gases into the room from appliances burning other
fuels, including open res.
■Dryer exhaust must not be connected into any gas vent,
chimney, wall, ceiling, attic, crawlspace, or a concealed
space of a building. Only rigid or exible metal vent shall
be used for exhausting.
■Do not use an exhaust hood with a magnetic latch.
■Only a 102 mm (4") heavy, metal exhaust vent and clamps
may be used.
■Do not use plastic or metal foil vent.
Rigid metal vent:
■Recommended for best drying performance and to avoid
crushing and kinking.
Flexible metal vent: (Acceptable only if accessible to clean)
■Must be fully extended and supported in nal dryer location.
■Remove excess to avoid sagging and kinking that may
result in reduced airow and poor performance.
■Do not install in enclosed walls, ceilings, or oors.
■The total length should not exceed 2.4 m (73⁄4ft).
■An exhaust hood should cap the vent to keep rodents
and insects from entering the building.
102 mm
( 4" )
102 mm (4") heavy, metal exhaust vent
Elbows:
■45° elbows provide better airow than 90° elbows.
■Plan installation to use the fewest number of elbows
and turns.
■Allow as much room as possible when using elbows
or making turns. Bend vent gradually to avoid kinking.
■Vent outlet is located at the center of the bottom dryer back.
■The vent can be routed up, down, left, right, behind the
dryer, or straight out the back of the dryer.
Clamps:
■Use clamps to seal all joints.
■Exhaust vent must not be connected or secured with
screws or other fastening devices that extend into interior
of duct and catch lint. Do not use duct tape.
Better
Good
NOTES:
■Although usually each single-load dryer should have
an unobstructed outdoor air opening of
24 in2(154 cm2) (based on 1 in2[6.5 cm2] per 1,000BTU
[252kcal]), common makeup air openings are also
acceptable. Set up common openings so the makeup air
is distributed equally to all of the dryers. Keep in mind that
the coverage area must be increased by 33% to account
for the use of registers or louvers over the openings. Also,
makeup air openings should not be installed near the
location where exhaust vents exit the building.
■If using an existing vent system, clean lint from entire length
of the system and make sure exhaust hood is not plugged
with lint. Replace plastic or metal foil vents with rigid metal
or exible metal vents. Review “Vent System Chart” and,
if necessary, modify existing vent system to achieve best
drying performance.

For vent systems not covered by the “Vent System Chart,”
see your parts distributor.
Provision must be made for enough air for combustion
and ventilation. (Check governing codes and ordinances.)
See “Recessed Area and Closet Installation Instructions”
in the “Location” section.
A 102 mm (4") outlet hood is preferred. However,
a 64 mm (21⁄2") outlet exhaust hood may be used.
A 64 mm (21⁄2") outlet creates greater back pressure than
other hood types. For permanent installation, a stationary vent
system is required.
Connect Vent
1. If connecting to existing vent, make sure the vent is clean.
2. Using a 102 mm (4") clamp, connect vent to exhaust outlet
in dryer.
Vent System Length
NOTE: Do not remove vent collar.
3. Tighten hose clamp with Phillips screwdriver.
4. Make sure the vent is secured to exhaust hood with
a 102 mm (4") clamp.
5. Move dryer into nal position. Do not crush or kink vent.
Make sure dryer is level.

The outside end of main vent should have a sweep elbow
directed downward.
If main vent travels vertically through the roof, rather than
through wall, install a 180° sweep elbow on end of vent at least
610 mm (2 ft) above surface of roof.
The opening in wall or roof shall have a diameter 13 mm (1⁄2")
larger than vent diameter. Vent should be centered in opening.
Do not install screening over end of vent for best performance.
minimum
A main vent can be used for venting a group of dryers. The
main vent should be sized to remove 5,663 L/min (200 CFM)
of air per dryer. Large-capacity lint screens of proper design
may be used in main vent if checked and cleaned frequently.
The room where the dryers are located should have make-up
air equal to or greater than CFM of all the dryers in the room.
A Back-draft Damper Kit is available from your distributor and
should be installed in the vent of each dryer to keep exhausted
air from returning into dryers and to keep exhaust in balance
within main vent. Unobstructed return air openings are required.
Each vent should enter the main vent at an angle pointing in
the direction of the airow. Vents entering from the opposite
side should be staggered to reduce the exhausted air from
interfering with the other vents.
The maximum angle of each vent entering the main vent should
be no more than 30°.
Keep air openings free of dry-cleaning uid fumes. Fumes
create acids which, when drawn through the dryer heating
units, can damage dryers and items being dried.
A clean-out cover should be located on the main vent for
periodic cleaning of the vent system.

cloth to remove any dust.
Take two cardboard corners from the dryer carton and place
them on the oor in back of the dryer. Firmly grasp body of the
dryer and gently lay it on its back on the cardboard corners.
2. Screw in leveling legs
Examine leveling legs and nd diamond
marking. Screw legs into leg holes by
hand. Use an adjustable wrench or
25 mm (1") hex-head socket wrench to
nish turning legs until diamond marking
is no longer visible. Then t a covered foot
boot over each leg foot. A longer leveling foot
