WARNING - Risk of Fire
• Clothes dryer installation must be performed by a qualied installer.
• Install the clothes dryer according to the manufacturer’s instructions and local codes.
• Do not install a clothes dryer with exible plastic venting materials. If exible metal
(foil type) duct is installed, it must be of a specic type identied by the appliance
manufacturer as suitable for use with clothes dryers. Flexible venting materials are
known to collapse, be easily crushed, and trap lint. These conditions will obstruct
clothes dryer airow and increase the risk of re.
• To reduce the risk of severe injury or death, follow all installation instructions.
• Save these instructions.
WARNING - To reduce the risk of re or explosion:
• Do not dry items that have been previously cleaned, washed, soaked, or spotted with
gasoline, dry cleaning solvents, or other ammable or explosive substances. They
emit vapors that could ignite or explode. Any material that has been in contact with a
cleaning solvent or ammable liquids or solids should not be placed in the dryer until
all traces of these ammable liquids or solids and their fumes have been removed.
There are many highly ammable 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, ignite spontaneously.
WARNING - Fire or explosion hazard:
• Failure to follow safety warnings exactly could result in serious injury, death or
property damage.
• Do not store or use gasoline or other ammable vapors and liquids near this or any
other appliance.
• Installation and service must be performed by a qualied installer, service agency.

Important safety precautions
WARNING
To reduce the risk of re, electric shock, or injury to persons when using your appliance,
follow basic precautions, including the following:
1. Read all instructions before using this appliance.
2. Do not dry articles that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in,
or spotted with gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other ammable or explosive
substances, as they give off vapors that could ignite or explode.
3. Do not use the dryer to dry clothes which have traces of any ammable substance,
such as vegetable oil, cooking oil, machine oil, ammable chemicals, paint thinner,
etc., or anything containing wax or chemicals, such as mops and cleaning cloths.
Flammable substances may cause the fabric to catch re by itself.
4. Do not store or use gasoline or other ammable vapors and liquids near this or any
other appliance.
5. Do not allow children to play on or in the appliance. Close supervision of children is
necessary when the appliance is used near children.

15. 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 re.
To reduce the risk of re due to contaminated loads, the nal part of a tumble dryer
cycle occurs without heat (cool down period). Avoid stopping 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.
16. This appliance must be grounded. See “Electrical requirements” and ”Grounding” in
“Installation” section.
17. Do not allow children to play on or in the appliance. Close supervision of children is
necessary when the appliance is used near children.
18. Do not insert your hand under the dryer.
• This may result in injury.
19. Take care that children’s ngers are not caught in the door when closing it.
• This may result in injury.
Warnings
WARNING
• Ensure pockets are free of small, irregularly shaped hard objects and foreign material,
i.e. coins, knives, pins, etc. These objects could damage your dryer.
• Sharp Edges – To reduce the risk of injury, use care when cleaning the condenser or
evaporator coil ns.
• Certain internal parts are intentionally not grounded and may present a risk of electric
shock only during servicing. Service Personnel - Do not contact the following parts
while the appliance is energized: Control board, Motor, Drain pump.
Cautions
CAUTION
• Do not allow children or pets to play on, in, or in front of the appliance. Close
supervision is necessary when the appliance is used near children and pets.
• Before discarding or removing your dryer from service, remove the door to the drying
compartment to prevent children or animals from becoming trapped inside.

• Do not repair, replace, or attempt to service any part of the appliance unless
specically instructed to in the user-repair instructions and you have the
understanding and skills to carry out the procedure.
• Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static unless the softener or
product is recommended for dryer use by the manufacturer of the fabric softener or
product.
• Clean the lint screen before or after each load.
• Keep the area around the exhaust opening and surrounding areas free from lint, dust,
and dirt.
• The interior of the dryer and exhaust duct should be cleaned periodically by qualied
service personnel.
• This appliance must be properly grounded. Never plug the power cord into a receptacle
that is not grounded adequately or not in accordance with local and national codes. See
the installation instructions for information about grounding this appliance.
• Do not sit on top of the dryer.
• Do not dry clothing with large buckles, buttons, or other heavy metal or solid objects.
• Install and use in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
• Do not place items in your dryer that have been spotted or soaked with vegetable oil
or cooking oil. Even after being washed, these items may contain signicant amounts
of these oils.
• Residual oil on clothing can ignite spontaneously. The potential for spontaneous
combustion increases when items containing vegetable oil or cooking oil are exposed
to heat. Heat sources such as your dryer can warm these items, allowing an oxidation
reaction in the oil to occur. Oxidation creates heat. If this heat cannot escape, the items
can become hot enough to catch re. Piling, stacking, or storing these kinds of items
may prevent heat from escaping and can create a re hazard.
• All washed and unwashed fabrics that contain vegetable oil or cooking oil can be
dangerous.
Washing these items in hot water with extra detergent will reduce, but not eliminate,
the hazard. Always use the Cool Down cycle for these items to reduce their
temperature. Never remove these items from the dryer hot or interrupt the drying
cycle until the items have run through the Cool Down cycle. Never pile or stack these
items when they are hot.

Before installation
Read through the following instructions before installing the dryer, and keep this manual
for future reference.
WARNING
Certain internal parts are intentionally not grounded and may present a risk of electric
shock only during servicing. Service Personnel - Do not contact the following parts while
the appliance is energized: Control board, Motor, Drain pump.
Key installation requirements
• A grounded electrical outlet.
• A power cord for electric dryers (except in Canada).
• A sink or drain pipe if you want to drain the water captured during drying through the
supplied long drain hose. (See page 20.)
WARNING
Remove the door from all discarded appliances to prevent a child from suffocating.
Location considerations
The dryer should be located where there is enough space at the front for loading the
dryer, and enough space behind for the exhaust system. This dryer is factory-ready for
the rear exhaust option. To exhaust out the bottom, right or the left, use the accessory
exhaust kit. Instructions are included with the kit. Make sure the room in which the dryer
is located has enough fresh air. The dryer must be located where there are no air-ow
obstructions.
The dryer must not be installed or stored in an area where it will be exposed to water
and/or weather. The dryer area must be kept clear of combustible materials, gasoline, and
other ammable vapors and liquids. A dryer produces combustible lint. The area around
the dryer should be kept lint-free.
