GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of
malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the
risk of electric shock by providing a path of least
resistance for electric current. This appliance is
equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding
conductor and a grounding plug, The plug must be
plugg_ into an appropriate outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all i_a[
_es and ordinances.
Do not modi_ the plug provided with the appliance: if
itwill not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by
a qualified eiecthcian
This appliance must be connected to a grounded
metal, permanent wiring system or an equipment-
grounding conductor must be run with the circuit
conductors and connected to the equipment-
grounding terminal or lead on the appliance.
WARNING - Improper connection of the equipment_
grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric
shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service
person if you are in doubt as to whether the appliance
is properly grounded.
To reduce the risk of fire or explosion, electric
shock, property damage, personal injury, or death
when using this appliance, please follow all
instructions and information, including those in
this manual and instructions provided by your
gas suppliel:
*Do not store or use any gasoline, dry_cleaning
solvents any other flammable vapors or
liquids in the area surrounding this appliance.
• Do not dl?! anything that has ever had anything
flammable on it, even after washing.
No washer can cornpletely remove oil. Do not
dry any mlicIes that have ever had any kind of
oil on them, including cooking oil.
Articles containing foam, rubber, rubber-like
materials, plastic or similar materials should be
air dried.
*Failure to follow these insla'uctions can result in
fire, death or serious injm2y.
° A qualified selwice person or company must
_fform installation and service of this
appliance.
Keep flammable materials and vapors, such
as gasoline, away from dryer.
- Place dryer at least 18 inches above the floor
for a garage installation.
- Failure to do so can result in death,
explosion or fire ....

Exhaust Requirements and Instructions:
1. Vendng materials are not provided with the dwcr aud
you should obtain the necess_y venting materials
locally. For ex:ample, the outer end of exhaust pipe
must have a weaher hood with hinged dampe_ m
prewent back_drafl when the @er is not in use.
2. The exhaust duct must be four inches (10.2 cm) in
diameter with no obslrucfions. The exhaust duct
should be kept as shor! as possible. Make sure to
clean any old ducts before instNling your new dryer.
3. Rigid or semi-rigid metal ducting is rc,conm_ended tor
u_ as transition ducth_g between the dryer and and fl_e
wal!. h_ s_ial installations when it is impossible m
make a coimecdon with the above recommendations,
then a UL-lisled flexible metal transition duct may
u_d betwee_ fl_e dryer and wall conneclion only. The
u_ of this ducting will affect dry time.
4. DO NO]" u_ sheet metal screws on exhaust pi_ joints
or other thstening means which ex_end into the duct that
could catch lint and reduce the efficiency of the exlmust
system. Secure all joints with duct rope.
5. To maximize operating results, please observe the duct
length limitations noted in the chart above.
irements And
Exhaust and Dryer Maintenan_
1. Alter one year of use, the interior and complete
exhaust system of the dryer Should be examined and
cleaned if necessary.
2. Before one year of use, when drying performance has
become unsatisfactory, please exanfine and clean the
exhaust duct for t'mtmr &ying performance.
3. Check the weather h_ds frequently m ensure the
damwrs are moving freely, that the dampers are not
pushed in and that nothing has been set against the
damwrs.
4. A qualified service person or company shoukt be used
to perform this maintenance.
5. A Flexible Metal Vent Kit, available at extra cost, can
be used to exhaust the dryer when it is placed in hard
to :reach places. This Kit comes in two pieces, one of
which is attached m the dryer and file other is attached
to the wNl exhaust outlet. Following attachment of the
two separate pieces to the dryer and the wall, the @er
may be returned m its finn _silion_ after which the
two pieces themselves can be connected.
7. Ordinarily, the dryer drum will need no care. Wipe the
exterior of the dryer as required, and Mways wi_ the
exterior of the dryer in the event any deterg)2nt, Neach,
or other washing products is spilled on the d_er.
8. (]ean the control panel with a damp cloth as
necessary. Warning: spray pro-wash products may
damage the finish of the control pmlel.
9. Please clean the lint :filmr either I7_li}redrying each
load or after drying each load.
10. Always make sum the lint filmr is clean before
starting a new load, N_'cause a clogged lint filmr may
increase @rag times.
11. Annually :remove the lint t'ilter and attach it m the
vacumn duct. See imm #2 aN_ve.
12. Please nora that the wirh_g diagram is provided inside
the &yet control hood. Label all wires prior to
discormection when servicing the dryer, because
wiring errors can cause serious injury to you and your

INanot rinse or wash screen to remove lint. Push
the lint screen :firefly back into place.
Always ensure the lint screen is finnly secured

a loose lint screen may cause overheating and
damage m the dryer mid articles being dried.
Some articles of clothing may shed more lint than
others (towels tier example), causing the Lint
