To reducethe risk offire, electricshock or injuryto personswhen using yourappli-

ance, follow basic precautions,includingthe following:

1. Read all instructions before using the 4.

appliance.

2. Toavoidthepossibilityoffireor explosion:

Do not dry itemsthat havebeen pre-

viously cleaned in, washed in,

soaked in, or spotted with gasoline, 6.

dry-cleaning solvents, other flamma-

ble or explosive substances as they 7.

give off vapors that could ignite or

explode. Any material on which you 8.

have used a cleaning solvent, or

which issaturatedwith flammable liq-

uidsor solids,shouldnot beplacedin

the dryer, until all traces of these

flammable liquids or solids and their

fumeshavebeen removed.Thereare 9.

many highlyflammableitems usedin

homes, such as: acetone,denatured

alcohol, gasoline, kerosene, some

liquid householdcleaners,somespot

removers,turpentine,waxesand wax

removers.

Items containing foam rubber (may

be labeled latex foam) or similarly

textured rubber-like materials must

not be dried on a heat setting. Foam

rubber materials when heated, can

under certain circumstancesproduce

fire byspontaneous combustion.

Do notallow childrento playon or in the

appliance.Close supervisionof children

eachload.

Keepthe area aroundthe exhaustopen-

ing and surroundingareas free from lint

accumulation,dust and dirt.

The interior of the dryer and exhaust

duct should be cleaned periodically by

qualified service personnel.

This appliancemustbe properlyground-

ed. Neverplug the appliance cordinto a

receptacle which is not grounded ade-

quately and in accordance with local

and national codes. See installation

instructionsforgroundingthis appliance.

Donot sit on top of the clothesdryer.

Lifetime lubrication is done at the facto-

ry, so the dryer never needsto be oiled

or greased.

SAVETHESEINSTRUbT,ONSFuR FUTURER FER NCE

Do not place intoyour dryeritemsthathavebeen spottedorsoaked with vegetable

oil or cooking oil. Even after being washed, these itemsmay contain significant

amountsof these oils. The remaining oil can ignite spontaneously. The potential

for spontaneous ignition increases when the items containing vegetable oil or

cooking oil are exposedto heat. Heat sources, such as your clothes dryer, can

warm these items,allowingan oxidationreaction inthe oilto occur. Oxidationcre-

ates heat. If this heat cannotescape, the items can become hot enough to catch

fire. Piling,stacking or storingthese kinds of itemsmay preventheat from escap-

ing and can create a fire hazard.

All washed and unwashedfabrics that contain vegetableoil or cookingoil can be

dangerous. Washingthese itemsin hotwater with extra detergentwill reduce,but

will not eliminate,the hazard. Always use the"cool down"cyclefor these itemsto

reduce the items' temperature. Never remove these items from the clothesdryer

hot or interrupt the drying cycleuntil the items haverun through the"cool down"

cycle. Never pileor stack these itemswhen they are hot.

Do notallow thestorage of anymaterialto obstruct the ventilationair openingsof

the dryer.

The exhaust system should be periodically examined for damage to the exhaust

duct and for free operation of the exhaust deflector. Keep the area around the

exhaust opening and surrounding areas free from the accumulation of lint, dust

and dirt.

IMPORTANTSAFETYNOTICE

&WARNING

The California Safe Drinking Water and

ToxicEnforcementAct of 1986 (Proposition

65) requires the Governor of California to

publish a list of substances known to the

State of Californiato cause canceror repro-

ductive harm, and requires businesses to

warn customers of potential exposures to

such substances.

Users of this appliance are hereby warned

that the burning of gas can result in low-

level exposure to some of the listed sub-

stances, including benzene, formaldehyde

and soot, due primarily to the incomplete

combustion of naturalgas or liquid petrole-

um (LP)fuels.Exhaustductsshould be kept

free of obstructionsand properly exhausted

dryers will minimizeexposure.

For Gas Dryers

• Toshorten drying time.

• Tooperate moreefficiently.

Do not operate the dryer without the

lint filter in place.

LOADTHEDRYERPROPERLY

Byplacingonlyone wash load inthe dryerat

a time.

Avoid very small loads or mixing heavy-

weight and lightweightclothes.

When only one or two articles need drying,

add a few similar items to improve tumbling

and drying efficiency.

When drying large, bulky items such as a

blanket or comforter,it may be necessary to

repositionthe load duringthe cycleto ensure

even drying.

Overloading restrictstumbling action, result-

ing in uneven drying as well as excessive

wrinkling of some fabrics.

ADDAFABRICSOFTENERSHEET

(IfDESIRED)

• After loadingthe dryer.

• Tocontrol static cling.

• Before the load becomes warm. This helps

prevent greasy-lookingsoftenerstains.

• And remove any used softener sheets from

the dryer to prevent greasy-lookingsoftener

stains.

SELECTCYCLE

Toselect a cycle, rotate the control dial to the desired setting.

When using an InteIIiDry cycle, the control dial should point

between "More Dry"and "LessDry"for most loads.

Loadsof larger or bulkiersize may require the "More Dry"set-

ting to completely dry the load. The "Less Dry" setting is best

suitedfor lightweightfabrics or for leavingsome moistureinthe

clothing at the end of the cycle.

CHECKTHESEPOINTSIFYOURCLOTHESDRYER...

DOESN'T RUN

• Be surethe door is latched shut.

• Besure the powercord is plugged intoa

live electricaloutlet.

• Check the home's circuit breaker and

fuses.

• PushtheControl dial in again ifthe door

was opened during the cycle.

DOESN'T HEAT

• Check the home's circuit breaker and

• Selecta heat setting, not air-fluff.

• On a gas dryer, check that the gas sup-

ply is on.

• Cleanthe lint filter and exhaust duct.

• Dryer timer may have moved into the

cool-down portion of the cycle.

DOESN'T DRY

• Checkall of the above, plus...

• Besure the exhaust hoodat theoutside

of the home can open and close freely.

• Check exhaust system for lint build-up.

Ducting should be inspected and

cleaned annually.

• Use 4"rigidmetalexhaust duct.

• Donot overload. 1 Wash load = 1 Dryer

load.

• Sort heavy itemsfrom lightweightitems.

• Large,bulky itemslike blankets or com-

forters may require repositioning to

ensure evendrying.

• Check that the washer is draining prop-

erly to extract adequate water from the

load.

promptly.

• Itis normaltohear thedryer gasvalveor

heating element cycle on and off during

the drying cycle.

• Be sure the dryer is leveled properly as

outlined in the installation manual.

CONTROL KNOB ADVANCES

SLOWLY

• This isnormal operationfor an IntelIiDry

cycle, especiallyat the beginning of the

cycle. Once the load begins to dry, the

control knob will start to advance. The

rate of advancement will be stow at the

beginning of the cycle because there is

more moisture in the load. As the load

becomes more dry,the control knobwill

advance morequickly.

DRIES UNEVENLY

• Seams, pocketsand other similar heavy

areas may not be completely dry when

the rest of the load has reached the

selected dryness level. This is normal.

Select the "More Dry"setting if desired.

If one heavy item is dried with a light-

weight load, such as one towel with

sheets, it is possible that the heavy item

will notbe completely dry when the rest

of the load has reached the selected

dryness level. Sort heavy items from

lightweight itemsfor best drying results.

HAS AN ODOR

• Householdodors such as from painting,

varnishing, strong cleaners, etc. may

enter the dryer with the surrounding

room air. This is normal as the dryer

draws the air from the room, heats it,

pulls itthroughthe tumblerand exhausts

it to the outside.When these odors are

present in the air, ventilate the room

completely beforeusing the dryer.
