Frequently Asked Questions - D-24 Avanti

Why won't my dryer start?

Check that the power cord is plugged in securely and the circuit breakers/fuses are intact. Ensure the door is closed properly. Verify that the controls are set correctly and the Start button has been pressed. If the dryer was paused, close the door and press Start again.

Why are my clothes taking too long to dry?

Possible causes include a clogged lint filter (clean before each load), improper exhaust ducting (use rigid metal duct, check for obstructions), or an overloaded dryer. Also ensure the correct drying cycle and temperature are selected for the fabric type.

How do I clean the lint filter?

Slide the lint filter out of its slot. Use moistened fingers to wipe the filter mesh from one corner to the other. Never operate the dryer without the filter in place. Periodically vacuum the filter area to remove lint buildup.

Can I use plastic or foil duct for exhaust?

No. Only rigid metal or flexible metal duct of 4-inch diameter is allowed. Plastic, foil, or other combustible ductwork can cause a fire hazard. Always exhaust to the outdoors.

What items should not be dried in this dryer?

Do not dry items containing rubber, plastic, or foam (e.g., padded bras, tennis shoes, bath mats, pillows). Also avoid fiberglass articles and any fabrics cleaned with flammable solvents such as gasoline or dry-cleaning chemicals.

How should the exhaust system be installed?

The exhaust must terminate outdoors using metal duct. Calculate the maximum allowable length based on the number of turns and hood type (see table in manual). Do not terminate in a chimney, attic, or under a mobile home.

What is the warranty coverage?

The dryer comes with a limited one-year warranty covering parts and labor for defects in material or workmanship. A limited five-year warranty covers the drum (labor charges apply after year one). Proof of original purchase is required.

How do I select the drying temperature?

Press the Temperature button repeatedly to cycle through High, Medium, Low, and Cold (no heat). The selected temperature is shown on the display. Use high heat for cottons, low for delicates.

How do I use the fabric programs?

Press the Fabrics button to choose Cotton, Perm Press, Delicates, or Knit. Each program sets an automatic temperature, but you can override it with the Temperature button. Follow garment care labels.

How can I reduce wrinkling?

Remove clothes promptly after the cycle ends. Use the Wrinkle Ease feature (anti-crease). Avoid overloading and separate heavy items from lightweight ones. For best results, place permanent press garments on hangers immediately.

• Connect to a properly rated, protected and sized power supply circuit to avoid electrical overload.
• Exhausting to the outside is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to prevent large amounts of moisture and lint from being blown into the room. Carefully follow the Exhausting Details in the Installation Instructions.
• Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance or attempt any servicing unless specifically recommended in this Owner's Manual.
• When disconnecting this appliance pull by the plug rather than the cord to avoid damage to the cord or junction of cord and plug. Make sure that the cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over or otherwise subjected to damage or stress.
• This dryer is intended for use only with fabrics that have been washed with water as a cleaning agent.

To Minimize the Possibility of a Fire Hazard

• Exhaust Duct - See Installation Instructions. Use only rigid metal or flexible metal 4" diameter ductwork for exhausting to the outside. USE OF PLASTIC OR OTHER COMBUSTIBLE DUCTWORK CAN CAUSE A FIRE. FOIL OR OTHER EASILY PUNCTURED DUCTWORK CAN CAUSE A FIRE IF IT COLLAPSES OR BECOMES OTHERWISE RESTRICTED IN USE OR DURING INSTALLATION.
• Do not use heat to dry articles containing rubber, plastic, or similar materials (such as padded bras, tennis shoes, galoshes, bath mats, rugs, bibs, pillows, baby pants, plastic bags, etc.) as these materials may melt or burn. Also, some rubber materials, when heated, can under certain circumstances produce fire by spontaneous combustion.
• Do not store items that may burn or melt (such as clothing, paper material, plastics or plastic containers, etc.) on top of the dryer during the operation.
  • Garments labeled "Dry Away from Heat" must not be put in your dryer.
• Do not wash or dry articles that have been cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with combustible or explosive substances (such as wax, paint, gasoline degreasers, dry-cleaning solvents, kerosene, etc.) which may ignite or explode. Do not add these substances to the wash water. Do not use these substances around your washer and/or dryer during operation.
• Any article on which you have used a cleaning solvent, or which contains flammable materials (such as cleaning cloths, mops, towels used in beauty salons, restaurants or barber shops, etc.) must not be placed in or near the dryer until all traces of these flammable liquids or solids and their fumes have been removed. There are many highly flammable items used in homes such as: acetone, denatured alcohol, gasoline, kerosene, some household cleaners, some spot removers, turpentines, waxes, wax removers and products containing petroleum distillates.

Safety Instructions

• Clean the lint filter before each load to prevent lint accumulation inside the dryer or in the room. DO NOT OPERATE THE DRYER WITHOUT THE LINT FILTER IN PLACE.
• Keep the area around the exhaust opening, and around and underneath your appliances free from the accumulation of combustible materials, such as lint, paper, rags, chemicals, etc.
• Regularly inspect the exhaust duct to be sure it has not been crushed or otherwise restricted.
• The interior of the dryer cabinet and the exhaust duct connection inside the dryer should be cleaned every 2 to 3 years, or more often if needed, by a qualified service person.

To Minimize the Possibility of Injury

• Never reach into the dryer while the drum is moving. Before loading, unloading or adding clothes, wait until the drum has completely stopped.
• Do not dry fiberglass articles in your dryer. Skin irritation could result from the remaining glass particles that may be picked up by clothing during subsequent dryer uses.
• The laundry process can reduce the flame retardance of fabrics. To avoid such a result, the garment manufacturer's care instructions should be followed very carefully.

the dryer. Failure to install, maintain, and/or operate this machine according to the manufacturer's instructions may result in conditions which can produce bodily injury, electric shock and/or property damage.

This dryer comes ready for top exhausting.

WARNINGS

• DO NOT USE NON METALLIC FLEXIBLE DUCT.
- Never use flexible duct inside the dryer.
- Do not terminate exhaust in a chimney, range hood, gas vent, floor or attic. The combination of lint and grease could create a fire hazard or damages.
- Provide an access for inspection and cleaning the exhaust system at least once a year.

EXHAUST LENGTH

The MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE length of the exhaust system depends upon the type of duct, number of turns, the type of exhaust hood (wall cap), and all conditions noted below. The maximum allowable length for both rigid and flexible metal duct is shown in the table 1 (next page). More than four 90^irc turns is not recommended.

EXHAUST SYSTEM CHECK LIST HOOD or WALL CAP

• Terminate in a manner to prevent back drafts or entry of birds or other wildlife.
• Termination should present minimal resistance to the exhaust air flow and should require little or no maintenance to prevent clogging.
- Wall caps must be installed at least 300 mm (12") above ground level or any other obstruction with the opening pointed down.
- If roof vents or louvered plenums are used, they must be equivalent to a 100 mm (4") dampered wall cap in regard to resistance to air flow, prevention of back

drafts and maintenance required to prevent clogging.

SEPARATION OF TURNS

Separate all turns by at least 1m(3ft.) of straight duct, including distance between last turn and dampered wall cap. If two turns must be closer than 1 m (3 ft.) deduct 3 m (10 ft.) from the maximum lengths shown in the table for each occurrence.

TURNS OTHER THAN 90°

• One turn of 45° or less may be ignored.

• Two 45° turns should be treated as one 90°.
  • Each turn over 45^irc should be treated as one 90^irc .

SEALING OF JOINTS

• All joints should be tight to avoid leaks. The male end of each section of duct must point away from the dryer.
• Do not assemble the duct work with fastener that extend into the duct. They will serve as a collection point for lint.
• Duct joints can be made air and moisture-tight by wrapping the overlapped joints with duct tape.

Operating Instructions, Tips

Polyester Knits & Permanent Press Drying Tips

• DO NOT OVERLOAD- Garments being dried or dewrinkled should tumble freely.
• REMOVE CLOTHES PROMPTLY- To help prevent wrinkling, remove clothes from the dryer promptly at the end of the drying cycles.
• PLACE ON HANGERS- Permanent press and polyester knit garments look best if placed on hangers after drying.

HOW TO LOAD THE CLOTHES

Don't overload your dryer. Crowded loads don't dry efficiently and clothes may be unnecessarily wrinkled.

HOW TO LOAD THE CLOTHES

As a general rule, sort clothes by surface texture, fabric, color and weight, as you would for your washer.

Do not add fabric softener sheets once the load has become warm.

Do not overload. This wastes energy and caused wrinkling.

Do not dry the following items: fiberglass items, woolens, rubber-coated items, plastics, items with plastic trim and foam-filled items.

Slide the grid out as shown

Clean the lint filter.

Put your moistened fingers at one corner of the filter and wipe in a sideways motion all the way across to the other corner.

Do not operate the dryer without the grid in place.

Do not operate the dryer without the filter in place.

Periodically, remove the lint filter (it snaps in and out) and insert the suction hose adapter from your vacuum cleaner into the opening.

Do the same through the rectangular opening at top or bottom of the door and at the louvers on the cabinet front.

CARE AND CLEANING

Dryer Exterior

Wipe off any spills or washing compounds. Wipe or dust with a damp cloth. Try not to strike the surface with sharp objects.

Dryer control panel and finishes may be damaged by some laundry pre-treatment soil and stain remover products if such products are sprayed on or have direct contact with the dryer.

Apply these pre-treatment products away from the dryer. The fabric may then be washed and dried normally. Damage to your dryer caused by pre-treatment products is not covered by your warranty.

Care and Cleaning

MAXIMIZE YOUR DRYER EFFICIENCY BY KEEPING THE EXHAUST DUCT CLEAN.

1. Disconnect or Turn off electrical power.
2. Disconnect duct from dryer.
3. Clean exhaust duct from end where dryer is connected to the exhaust hood using:

• the hose attachment of your vacuum cleaner:
- a dust rag attached to a pole (for straight stretches) or to a drain_cleaning wire (for less accessible turns).

1. Inspect exhaust hood. To minimize resistance to the exhaust air flow:

2. flap must move freely (you may check with a mirror):

3. flap should be fully open when dryer is on;
4. ensure that no wildlife (birds. insects,...) have nested inside the duct.

CLEANING LINT FROM YOUR DRYER

Combustible lint may collect on the inside of the dryer cabinet. CLEAN EVERY 2 TO 3 YEARS OR MORE OFTEN DEPENDING ON USAGE.

Cleaning should be done by a qualified service person.

ALWAYS VERIFY PROPER OPERATION AFTER SERVICING

Problem Solver

QUESTIONS? USE THIS PROBLEM SOLVER

PROBLEM	POSSIBLE CAUSE
DRYER WON'T START	Dryer unplugged. Make sure power cord is plugged in.No power to dryer. Check fuses and circuit breakers to make sure dryer is getting current. Most electric dryers use two.Controls improperly set. Make sure controls are and that the Start button is pressed. Opening the door during operation stops the dryer. To restart, close the door and push the Start button.Dryer door is open. Close door securely - dryer will not run with door open.Circuit is overloaded. Do not operate other appliances on the same electrical outlet or circuit while the dryer is in operation.
CLOTHES TAKE TOO LONG TO DRY	Controls improperly set. Check all controls to make sure they are correctly set for the load you want to dry. See the How to Operate Your Dryer section. See the Care and Cleaning section.Clogged lint filter. Clean filter before every load. Periodically remove lint filter and clean area under it with vacuum cleaner.Improper ducting. Make sure dryer is ducted in accordance with the Installation Instructions.Obstruction in exhaust ducting. Make sure ducting is clean and free of obstruction: make sure damper in outside wall cap operates easily. If flexible ducting is used, be sure it is not kinked and is properly installed according to the Installation Instructions.Blow n fuses or tripped circuit breakers. Check household fuses or circuit breakers. Most electric dryers use two. It is possible for one to be blown or tripped and the dryer still tumble without heat.Improper sorting. Do not mix heavy, hard-to-dry items with lightweight articles.Large loads of moisture-holding fabrics, such as beach towels, take a long time to remove moisture.Too many items in dryer. Dry only one washer load at a time. Do not combine loads.Too few items in dryer. If drying only one article, add two more similar articles, even if dry, to ensure proper tumbling.
SHRINKAGE,GENERAL	Some fabrics will shrink whether machine washed and tumble dried or washed by hand and drip dried; others may be safely washed but will shrink in a dryer. Follow Garment Manufacturers' Care Labels exactly. If in doubt, do not machine wash or tumble dry.
WRINKLING	Leaving clothes in dryer after tumbling stops. Remove clothes promptly and hang them immediately.Improper loads. Avoid laundering heavy Permanent Press items, such as work clothes, with lighter Permanent Press items, such as shirts or blouses. Do not wash or dry Permanent Press with regular laundry.Failure to use fabric softener. Proper use of fabric softener will minimize wrinkling.
TO REMOVE WRINKLES	Try one or more of these suggestionsRetumble on Perm-Press setting.Rerinse and dry on Perma Press setting.If unsuccessful, retumble on high heat for 10-12 minutes and hung immediatelyIron carefullySend to dry cleaners for pressingSome wrinkles may remain which cannot be removed.*NOTE: If you follow good laundry procedures and Permanent Press clothes still come out wrinkled the finish may not be good quality. Also, in permanent press synthetic/cotton blends the cotton portion of the fabric can eventually wear away leaving only the synthenc. Since it's the cotton portion which is treated for Permanent Press, a loss or decrease of Permanent Press performance will result. "Easy Care" fabrics may eventually lose their finish and wrinkle even with proper care.
