IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
precautions, including the following:
WARNING:
Read all instructions before using the dryer.
Keep a minimum clearance of 100 mm (4 in.) between the
rear of the dryer and any wall.
The operation of this appliance may affect the operation of
other types of appliances which take their air supply for safe
combustion from the same room. There has to be adequate
ventilation to replace exhausted air and thus avoid the
back-ow of gases into the room from appliances burning
other fuels, including open res, when operating the tumble
dryer. If in doubt, consult the appliance manufacturers.
Do not obstruct the air supply to the dryer (see Installation
Instructions for minimum clearances).
Do not place items exposed to cooking oils in your dryer.
Oil-affected items can ignite spontaneously, especially when
exposed to heat sources such as in 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.
If it is unavoidable to dry in the dryer items that have been
soiled with substances such as cooking oil, acetone, alcohol,
petrol, kerosene, spot removers, turpentine, waxes and wax
removers, or that have been contaminated by hair care
products, should be washed in hot water with an extra
amount of detergent before being dried in the dryer. These
items may give off vapours that could ignite or explode. Such
washing will reduce, but not eliminate, the hazard.
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 instructions concerning
use of the appliance by persons responsible for their safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not
play with the appliance.
The dryer should not be used if industrial chemicals have
been used for cleaning.
Before the dryer is removed from service or discarded,
remove the doors to the drying compartment.
Do not reach into the dryer if the drum is moving. A door
switch is tted for your safety.
Do not install or store the dryer where it will be exposed
to the weather.
Do not tamper with controls.
Do not continue to use this appliance if it appears to be
faulty.
Do not repair or replace any part of the dryer or attempt
any maintenance unless specically recommended in this
Use and Care Guide. Repairs and servicing should only
be carried out by competent service personnel.
Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static
unless recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric
softener or product. Follow their instructions.
Clean dryer lint screen before or after each load. Do not
operate dryer without lint screen in place.
Keep area around the exhaust and inlet openings and
adjacent surrounding areas free from the accumulation of
lint, dust, and dirt.
The interior of the dryer and exhaust vent should be
cleaned periodically by qualied service personnel.
See Installation Instructions for earthing instructions.
Do not dry unwashed items in this dryer.
Items such as foam rubber (latex foam), shower caps,
waterproof textiles, rubber backed articles and clothes or
pillows tted with foam rubber pads must only be dried
on a clothesline.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: Never stop a tumble dryer cycle before the
end of the drying cycle unless all items are quickly removed
and spread out so that the heat is dissipated.
To reduce the risk of re, electric shock, or injury to persons when using the dryer, follow basic
The nal part of a tumble dryer cycle occurs without heat
(cool down cycle) to ensure that the items are left at a
temperature that ensures the items will not be damaged.

STACKED WASHER/GAS DRYER INSTALLATION
REQUIREMENTS
Stacked Washer/Gas Dryer Gas Supply Requirements
Gas Supply
Before installation, check that the local gas distribution conditions,
nature of gas and pressure, and the adjustment of the appliance
are compatible. Burner information will be found on the model/
serial rating plate in the door recess of the dryer. If this information
does not agree with the type of gas available, see your dealer.
Natural Gas:
This dryer is factory adjusted for use with NATURAL GAS (G20),
and no further adjustment should be required at installation.
L.P. Gas:
This dryer is also certified for use with L.P. gas with appropriate
conversion. No attempt shall be made to convert the appliance
from the gas specified on the model/serial rating plate for use
with a different gas without consulting the serving gas supplier.
Conversion must be done by a competent service technician.
L.P. Gas conversion kit, part number W10571757, is available for
purchase from your dealer. Full instructions are supplied with the
kit.
Supply line requirements:
Provide a rigid gas supply line to the washer/dryer location. It
should be minimum 12.5 mm (1/2") ID. When acceptable to the
gas supplier and local codes, 10 mm (3/8") ID rigid supply line
may be used for lengths under 6.1 m (20'). Pipe-joint compounds
resistant to the action of L.P. gas must be used.
Gas connection to the dryer itself should be made by means
of a flexible gas hose suitable for the appliance and gas category
in accordance with national installation regulations. If in doubt,
contact the gas supplier. It should be minimum 10 mm (3/8") ID.
A means of restraint should be used between the washer/dryer
and the wall to avoid straining of the rigid gas supply when the
washer/dryer is moved. An appropriate length of chain and a wall
hook is recommended.
The dryer gas inlet connection is a 3/8" NPT thread. An adapter is
supplied for conversion to standard ISO 228-1 thread (3/8" BSP).
Check for leaks by using an approved noncorrosive leak-detection
solution. Bubbles will show a leak. Correct any leak found. A
pressure measurement tapping is provided on the gas valve
within the dryer, accessible after removal of the lower front panel.
The dryer must be disconnected from the gas supply piping
system during any pressure testing of that system.

13
DRYER VENTING REQUIREMENTS
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, this dryer MUST BE
EXHAUSTED OUTDOORS.
nFollowing these venting requirements will minimise ducting
air noise.
nAdequate ventilation has to be provided to avoid the backflow
of gases into the room from appliances burning other fuels,
including open fires (i.e. available airflow into the room should
match airflow out from the room).
nDryer exhaust must not be connected into any gas vent,
chimney, wall, ceiling, attic, crawlspace, or a concealed space
of a building. Only rigid or flexible metal vent shall be used for
exhausting.
nDo not use an exhaust hood with a magnetic latch.
nOnly a 102 mm (4") heavy, metal exhaust vent and clamps may
be used.
nDo not use plastic or metal foil vent.
nExhaust air must not be discharged into a flue which is used for
exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels.
nForced ventilation of fresh air is required.
nExhaust air must be exhausted to the outside to avoid
suffocation.
nIf exhaust is connected to a commonly used exhaust system,
it is required to install flap valves at each connection or
alternative adequate countermeasures.
nExhaust air must not be connected to an exhaust channel
of a furnace.
102 mm
(
4"
)
102 mm (4") Heavy, Metal Exhaust Vent
Rigid metal vent:
nRecommended for best drying performance and to avoid
crushing and kinking.
Flexible metal vent: (Acceptable only if accessible to clean)
nMust be fully extended and supported in final dryer location.
nRemove excess to avoid sagging and kinking that may result
in reduced airflow and poor performance.
nDo not install in enclosed walls, ceilings, or floors.
nThe total length should not exceed 2.4 m (73⁄4ft.).
nAn exhaust hood should cap the vent to keep rodents and
insects from entering the building.
NOTE: 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 flexible
metal vents. Review “Vent System Chart” and if necessary, modify
existing vent system to achieve best drying performance.
Elbows:
n45° elbows provide better airflow than 90° elbows.
nPlan installation to use the fewest number of elbows and turns.
nAllow as much room as possible when using elbows or making
turns. Bend vent gradually to avoid kinking.
nVent outlet is located at the centre of the bottom dryer back.
nThe vent can be routed up, down, left, right, behind the dryer,
or straight out the back of the dryer.
Clamps:
nUse clamps to seal all joints.
nExhaust 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.

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
“Stacked Washer/Gas Dryer Location” and “Stacked Washer”
sections.
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.
NOTE: Do not remove vent collar.

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 centred in opening.
Do not install screening over end of vent for best performance.
A main vent can be used for venting a group of dryers. The main
vent should be sized to remove 5663 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.
Unobstructed air openings are required for make up combustion
air. A static opening of 24 square inches (1 inch2per 1,000 BTU
of burner) is the minimum required for each dryer in operation.
A common opening may be used if the return air is distributed
equally to all dryers in operation.
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 airflow. 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 fluid 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.
