Frequently Asked Questions - NJSR453EWWW HOTPOINT

Why won't my dryer start?

Check that the dryer is plugged in securely and that the circuit breaker has not tripped or fuse blown. Also ensure the door is fully closed.

Why is my dryer running but not heating?

For electric dryers, check both fuses/breakers (two required). For gas dryers, verify the gas supply is turned on. The thermal fuse may also be blown.

How do I reduce wrinkles in my clothes?

Use the Press Guard feature which adds 15 minutes of no-heat tumbling after drying. Remove clothes promptly at the end of the cycle.

Why are there lint deposits on my clothes?

Clean the lint filter before each load. Also check for a clogged exhaust duct. Static electricity can also attract lint; use a fabric softener.

How can I change the door swing direction?

The door is reversible. Remove the door, rotate it 180°, and reinstall on the opposite side using the provided filler plugs and screws. See the manual for detailed steps.

What does the 'Press Guard' feature do?

It provides approximately 15 minutes of tumbling without heat after the drying cycle ends to help prevent wrinkles. It works only with automatic cycles.

How often should I clean the exhaust duct?

At least once a year. Disconnect the duct from the dryer and vacuum it thoroughly to remove lint buildup. Check the outside vent for obstructions.

Can I dry sneakers or rubber items?

No, do not dry items containing rubber, plastic, or foam as they may melt or catch fire. Use the drying rack for delicate items like sweaters or stuffed toys on timed cycle.

Why are my clothes taking too long to dry?

Possible causes: heavy load, clogged lint filter, blocked exhaust duct, incorrect cycle selection, or low gas pressure. Clean the filter and duct, and separate heavy items.

What is the warranty coverage?

One year full warranty on parts and labor. Five year limited warranty on the drum. Warranty does not cover misuse, improper installation, or cosmetic damage.

READ THIS MANUAL

Inside you will find many helpful hints on how to use and maintain your dryer properly. Just a little preventive care on your part can save you a great deal of time and money over the life of your dryer.

PROPER VENTING

For the best drying performance the dryer needs to be properly vented. The dryer will use more energy and run longer if it is not vented to the specifications outlined in the Venting the Dryer section in this manual and the Exhausting section in the Installation Instructions.

IF YOU NEED SERVICE

You'll find many answers to common problems in the Before You Call For Service section. If you review our chart of Troubleshooting Tips first, you may not need to call for service at all.

If you do need service, you can relax knowing help is only a phone call away. A list of toll-free customer service numbers is included in the back section. Or, in the U.S., you can always call the GE Answer Center ^® at 800.626.2000, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. In Canada, call 1-800-361-3400.

WARNING!

For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire or explosion, electric shock, or to prevent property damage, personal injury, or death.

■ Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.

■ Installation and service must be performed by a qualified installer, service agency or the gas supplier.

WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS:

1 Do not try to light a match, or cigarette, or turn on any gas or electrical appliance.
2 Do not touch any electrical switch; do not use any phone in your building.
3 Clear the room, building or area of all occupants.

4 Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor's phone. Follow the gas supplier's instructions carefully.
5 If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire department.

California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act

This act requires the governor of California to publish a list of substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.

Gas appliances can cause minor exposure to four of these substances, namely benzene, carbon monoxide, formaldehyde and soot, caused primarily by the incomplete combustion of natural gas or LP fuels.

Properly adjusted dryers will minimize incomplete combustion. Exposure to these substances can be minimized further by properly venting the dryer to the outdoors.

PROPER INSTALLATION

This dryer must be properly installed and located in accordance with the Installation Instructions before it is used. If you did not receive an Installation Instructions sheet, you can receive one by calling, toll-free, in the United States the GE Answer Center ^® , 800.626.2000. In Canada, call, 1-800-361-3400.

■ Properly ground dryer to conform with all governing codes and ordinances. Follow details in Installation Instructions.
■ Install or store where it will not be exposed to temperatures below freezing or exposed to the weather.
■ Connect to a properly rated, protected and sized power supply circuit to avoid electrical overload.
■ Remove all sharp packing items and dispose of all shipping materials properly.

Exhaust/Ducting:

Gas dryers MUST be exhausted to the outside.

2 Exhausting electric dryers to the outside is strongly recommended to prevent large amounts of moisture and lint from being blown into the room.

3 Use only rigid metal or flexible metal 4" diameter ductwork inside the dryer cabinet or for exhausting to the outside. USE OF PLASTIC OR OTHER COMBUSTIBLE DUCTWORK CAN CAUSE A FIRE. PUNCTURED DUCTWORK CAN CAUSE A FIRE IF IT COLLAPSES OR BECOMES OTHERWISE RESTRICTED IN USE OR DURING INSTALLATION.

For complete details, follow the Installation Instructions.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.

▲ WARNING!

YOUR LAUNDRY AREA

• Keep the area underneath and around your appliances free of combustible materials, (lint, paper, rags, etc.), gasoline, chemicals and other flammable vapors and liquids.

• Keep the floor around your appliances clean and dry to reduce the possibility of slipping.
  ■ Close supervision is necessary if this appliance is used by or near children. Do not allow children to play on, with, or inside this or any other appliance.

• Keep all laundry aids (such as detergents, bleaches, etc.) out of the reach of children, preferably in a locked cabinet. Observe all warnings on container labels to avoid injury.
  ■ Never climb on or stand on the dryer top.

WHEN USING YOUR DRYER

■ Never reach into the dryer while the drum is moving. Before loading, unloading or adding clothes, wait until the drum has completely stopped.
■ 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.
■ 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, oil, 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 or place these substances around your washer or dryer during operation.
■ 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 clothes load to catch fire.
■ Any article on which you have used a cleaning solvent or that 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 solvents or flammable materials 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.

■ The laundry process can reduce the flame retardancy of fabrics. To avoid such a result, carefully follow the garment manufacturer's care instructions.
■ Do not dry articles containing rubber, plastic, or similar materials such as padded bras, tennis shoes, galoshes, bath mats, rugs, bibs, baby pants, plastic bags, pillows, etc. that may melt or burn. Some rubber materials, when heated, can under certain circumstances produce fire by spontaneous combustion.
■ Do not store plastic, paper or clothing that may burn or melt on top of the dryer during operation.
■ Garments labeled Dry Away from Heat or Do Not Tumble Dry (such as life jackets containing Kapok) must not be put in your dryer.
■ Do not dry fiberglass articles in your dryer. Skin irritation could result from the remaining particles that may be picked up by clothing during subsequent dryer uses.
■ To minimize the possibility of electric shock, unplug this appliance from the power supply or disconnect the dryer at the household distribution panel by removing the fuse or switching off the circuit breaker before attempting any maintenance or cleaning (except the removal and cleaning of the lint filter). NOTE: Turning the Cycle Selector knob to an OFF position does NOT disconnect the appliance from the power supply.

■ Never attempt to operate this appliance if it is damaged, malfunctioning, partially disassembled, or has missing or broken parts, including a damaged cord or plug.
■ The interior of the machine and the exhaust duct connection inside the dryer should be cleaned at least once a year by a qualified technician. See the Loading and Using the Dryer section.
■ If yours is a gas dryer, it is equipped with an automatic electric ignition and does not have a pilot light. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO LIGHT WITH A MATCH. Burns may result from having your hand in the vicinity of the burner when the automatic ignition turns on.

- You may wish to soften your laundered fabrics or reduce the static electricity in them, by using a dryer-applied fabric softener or an anti-static conditioner. We recommend you use either a fabric softener in the wash cycle, according to the manufacturer's instructions for those products, or try a dryer-added product for which the manufacturer gives written assurance on the package that their product can be safely used in your dryer. Service or performance problems caused by use of these products are the responsibility of the manufacturers of those products and are not covered under the warranty to this appliance.

WHEN NOT USING YOUR DRYER

■ Grasp the plug firmly when disconnecting this appliance to avoid damage to the cord while pulling. Place the cord away from traffic areas so it will not be stepped on, tripped over or subjected to damage.
- Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of this appliance or attempt any servicing unless specifically recommended in this Owner's Manual or in published user-repair instructions that you understand and have the skills to carry out.

■ Before discarding a dryer, or removing it from service, remove the dryer door to prevent children from hiding inside.
■ Do not tamper with controls.

Read and follow this Safety Information carefully.

Loading and using the dryer. Always follow the fabric manufacturer's care label when laundering.

Sorting and Loading Hints

As a general rule, if clothes are sorted properly for the washer, they are sorted properly for the dryer.

Do not add fabric softener sheets once the load has become warm. They may cause fabric softener stains. Bounce® Fabric Conditioner Dryer Sheets have been approved for use in all GE Dryers when used in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.

Do not overload. This wastes energy and causes wrinkling.

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

Care and Cleaning of the Dryer

The Exterior: Wipe or dust any spills or washing compounds with a damp cloth. Dryer control panel and finishes may be damaged by some laundry pretreatment soil and stain remover products. Apply these products away from the dryer. The fabric may then be washed and dried normally. Damage to your dryer caused by these products is not covered by your warranty.

The Lint Filter: Clean the lint filter before each use. Moisten your fingers and reach into the filter opening. Run your fingers across the filter. Have a qualified technician vacuum the lint from the dryer once a year.

Line drawing of a hand pressing down on a door panel (no text or symbols)

The Exhaust Duct: Inspect and clean the exhaust ducting at least once a year to prevent clogging. A partially clogged exhaust can lengthen the drying time.

Follow these steps:

Turn off electrical supply by disconnecting the plug from the wall socket.
2 Disconnect the duct from the dryer.
3 Vacuum the duct with the hose attachment and reconnect the duct.

The Exhaust Hood: Check with a mirror that the inside flaps of the hood move freely when operating. Make sure that there is not wildlife (birds, insects, etc.) nesting inside the duct or hood.
