Your safety and the safety of others are very important.

We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety messages.

This is the safety alert symbol.

This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.

All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word "DANGER" or "WARNING."

These words mean:

DANGER

WARNING

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't immediately follow instructions.

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't follow instructions.

All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can happen if the instructions are not followed.

WARNING - "Risk of Fire"

• Clothes dryer installation must be performed by a qualified installer.
• Install the clothes dryer according to the manufacturer's instructions and local codes.
• Do not install a clothes dryer with flexible plastic venting materials. If flexible metal (foil type) duct is installed, it must be of a specific type identified 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 airflow and increase the risk of fire.
• To reduce the risk of severe injury or death, follow all installation instructions.
• Save these instructions.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using the dryer, follow basic precautions, including the following:

• Read all instructions before using the dryer.
  ■ 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 fire.
  ■ Do not dry articles that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances as they give off vapors that could ignite or explode.
  ■ Do not allow children to play on or in the dryer. Close supervision of children is necessary when the dryer is used near children.
  ■ Before the dryer is removed from service or discarded, remove the door to the drying compartment.
  ■ Do not reach into the dryer if the drum is moving.
  ■ Do not install or store the dryer where it will be exposed to the weather.
  ■ Do not tamper with controls.

■ Do not repair or replace any part of the dryer or attempt any servicing unless specifically recommended in this Use and Care Guide or in published user-repair instructions that you understand and have the skills to carry out.
■ Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static unless recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric softener or product.
■ Do not use heat to dry articles containing foam rubber or similarly textured rubber-like materials.
■ Clean lint screen before or after each load.
- Keep area around the exhaust opening 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 qualified service personnel.
■ See installation instructions for grounding requirements.

WARNING: Gas leaks cannot always be detected by smell.

Gas suppliers recommend that you use a gas detector approved by UL or CSA.

For more information, contact your gas supplier.

If a gas leak is detected, follow the "What to do if you smell gas" instructions.

Check Your Vent System for Good Air Flow

Along with heat, dryers require good air flow to efficiently dry laundry. Proper venting will reduce your drying times and improve your energy savings. See Installation Instructions.

The venting system attached to the dryer plays a big role in good air flow.

WARNING

Fire Hazard

Use a heavy metal vent.

Do not use a plastic vent.

Do not use a metal foil vent.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or fire.

Service calls caused by improper venting are not covered by the warranty and will be paid by the customer, regardless of who installed the dryer.

Maintain Good Air flow by:

Cleaning your lint screen before each load. ■

- Replace plastic or foil vent material with 4" (102 mm) diameter heavy, rigid vent material.

Use the shortest length of vent possible. ■

Use no more than four 90^ elbows in a vent system; each bend and curve reduces air flow.

Good

Better

Remove lint and debris from the exhaust hood. ■

Remove lint from the entire length of the vent system at least every 2 years. When cleaning is complete, be sure to follow the Installation Instructions supplied with your dryer for final product check.

Clear away items from the front the dryer.

Not all features and options are available on all models. Appearance may vary.

Cycle Selector (Timer) Control

Automatic Dry/Auto Sense Dry

The Automatic Dry cycle takes the guesswork out of drying time and enhances fabric care. The Automatic Dry cycle may be used for most loads.

The Cycle Selector (Timer) control may be set to ENERGY PREFERRED, which is good for most fabrics. At the end of the cycle, you may check the dryness of the load.

If the load is drier than you like, select a setting closer to Less Dry the next time you dry a similar load.

If the load is not as dry as you want, select a Timed cycle to complete drying and the next time you dry a similar load, choose a setting closer to Very Dry.

Drying time with an automatic cycle varies according to the type of fabric, size of load, and temperature setting. On some models, the temperature is included in the cycle selections.

WRINKLE PREVENT (on some models)

The WRINKLE PREVENT features will run after your drying cycle is complete. It periodically starts and stops the dryer, tumbling the load without heat to help avoid wrinkling.

On some models, WRINKLE PREVENT automatically starts at the end of the cycle. Opening the door will stop this feature. On other models, you can set the WRINKLE PREVENT selector knob to ON.

NOTE: A signal will sound periodically when the WRINKLE PREVENT setting is selected, but only if the End of Cycle signal is also selected.

Timed Dry

On some models, temperature is included in the cycle selections. On models with a selectable temperature knob, you may choose a setting based on the fabrics in your load. Drying time and temperature will depend on your dryer model.

Temperature Control

(on some models)

You may select a drying temperature based on the fabrics in your load. If you are unsure of the temperature to select for a load, select the lower setting rather than the higher setting.

Temperature Tips

If your dryer has multiple heat settings:

A High heat setting may be used for drying heavyweight items ■ such as towels and work clothes.

A Low to Medium heat setting may be used for drying medium-weight items such as sheets, blouses, dresses, underwear, permanent press fabrics, lingerie, and some knits.

■ You may use a no heat (air) setting for rubber, plastic, or heat-sensitive fabrics.

Line dry bonded or laminated fabrics. ■

NOTE: If you have questions about drying temperatures for various loads, refer to the care label directions.

End of Cycle Signal

(on some models)

The End of Cycle signal sounds when a cycle is complete. On some models, the End of Cycle Signal is fixed. On others, the End of Cycle Signal is selectable and the signal will sound only if set to On.

If the WRINKLE PREVENT feature is selected and the End of Cycle Signal is on, the signal sounds every few minutes. The signal stops when you open the door or turn the Cycle Control knob to Off.
