1English DANGER Risk of child entrapment. Before you throw away your old appliance, take off the door so that children may not easily get trapped inside. WARNING! As dry cleaning solvents, gasoline, vegetable and cooking oil are highly hazardous materials, items soaked in or spotted with such should not be used in the dryer. Items may still contain a substantial amount of the hazardous material after being washed. When such items are exposed to heat they could ignite. As clothes are stacked and piled up the dryer the heat cannot escape. Due to this, items become hot enough to possibly ignite. Washing in hot water with extra detergent would reduce but not eliminate the risk of fire. Thank you for purchasing our Haier product. This easy-to-use manual will guide you in getting the best use of your washer. Remember to record the model and serial number. They are on a label in back of the washer.

The plug must be plugged into an outlet which is properly installed and grounded Warning – Improper use of the grounded wire can result in the risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician if necessary. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature by modifying the plug. Avoid the use of an extension cord because it may overheat and cause a risk of fire. However, if it is necessary to use an extension cord: A. Use only 3-wire extension cord with 3-blade grounding plug. B. The marked rating of the extension cord must be equal to or greater than the rating of this appliance. Attempting any maintenance or cleaning: 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).

Venting The Dryer Proper venting of the dryer is very important. Determine the best and safest ducting for the dryer. Exhaust Requirements and Maintenance. Clothes dryer installation must be performed by qualified installer.1. Install the clothes dryer according to the manufacturer’s instructions and local codes.2. Do not install a clothes dryer with flexible plastic venting materials. If flexible metal 3. (foil type) duct is installed, it must be of a specific type identified by the flexible duct 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. Clean old ducts before installing this dryer.4. WARNING! WARNING! Outside Vent Correct Incorrect Venting must conform to local building codes.• Do not use thin plastic or foil ducting.• Use 4 inches (10.2cm) diameter rigid or flexible metal duct (note: venting • materials are not supplied with the dryer, and you should obtain the venting materials necessary for proper installation at your local hardware store). Position the Dryer such that the exhaust duct run is as short as possible. • Make sure there is no more than 6 feet of exhaust ducting. Clean old ducts before installing this dryer• Never bend or collapse ducting flex hose. Use few elbows joints as needed.• Use duct tape on all duct joints.• Insulate ductwork that runs through unheated areas in order to reduce • condensation and lint build-up on pipe walls. To reduce the risk of fire and combustion, the dryer must be vented outdoors. Lint accumulation can cause fires. Check and clean vents and ducting as often as possible.

English INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Location for installation and options for various walls

1. There are 2 mounting options- either using wood slats or a whole plywood

board. The dryer installation to the wall should be able to accommodate the weight of the unit of 52 lbs. plus about 10 lbs. for clothing (or approximately 62 lbs). We suggest you use a plywood board for added support and safety, this is the best way to mount.

2. Determine dryer position on the wall. A minimum of 6”(Inches) is needed

between the top of the dryer and the ceiling for installation.

3. If mounting the dryer above a washing machine, allow sufficient space to

open the top lid of the washer.

4. The Best installation is to add a plywood board to the wall studs. As a

second option- you can use two (2) slats (2 by 4 “) and attach to studs.English

Wall Mounting Instructions

5. For the best installation

DRYING TIPS AND PRECAUTIONS

Delicate clothes especially those with ribbon or lace, should be placed in a nylon mesh bag before drying to prevent tangling. Clothes with zippers Zippers, buckles, buttons and fasteners should be closed or clothing should be turn inside out to reduce the impact of noise between metal and the drum. Solvents 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.). These substances give off vapors that 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. Elastics Do not dry articles containing rubber, plastic or similar materials such as padded bras, tennis shoes, rubber 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. Fabrics Make sure to check if there are any special requirements or warning labels • on garments before drying. Carefully follow the garment manufacturer’s care instructions. Avoid clothes being caught by the door which will cause clothes to tangle • and damage the door gasket. Separate dark and light colored items, like you do for washing.• Check for stains that may not have been removed in washing.• Dryer heat may permanently set some stains. Properly dried clothes will need • minimum care when removed from dryer. For optimum results,use dryer load with cloths of similar fabric, weight and • construction. Always remove the clothing from the dryer as soon as possible.English
