Inc. Those with a CSA Monogram
on the data
plate have been certified
by the CSA Testing
Laboratories
as complying

requirements.
Gas dryers
with an AGA symbol on the data plate have been
design certified
with the American
Gas
Association;

Nevertheless,
as with any
equipment
using electricity
and having moving
parts, there are potential
hazards.
To use this
appliance
safely, the operator
should become
familiar
with the instructions for operation
of the
Appliance
and always exercise care when
using it.
EXHAUSTING
THE DRYER
A proper exhaust system is critical for good
drying
results. Restricted airflow
affects dryer
performance
and results in longer drying
times.
Exhaust ductwork
guidelines:
•
Use 4" diameter
rigid metal exhaust duct. Do
not use smaller duct. Minimize
the length of
duct and the number of elbows.
Secure joints
with duct tape. Do not use screws.
° Never use plastic or nonmetal flexible duct. This
can kink, cause lint buildup
and reduce airflow
which creates service problems.
•
If flexible duct must be used, use only the type
with a stiff sheet metal wall. Do not kink or
crush the duct. Do not use flexible duct with a
thin foil wall.
• Clean out previously
used exhaust duct.
Replace kinked or crushed sections. Be sure
exhaust vent hood flap opens and closes freely.
•
Refer to the installation
instructions for
additional
dryer exhaust information.
ENERGY SAVING
TIPS
•
Clean the lint filter after each cycle for greater
efficiency
and performance.
•
Avoid overloading
the dryer. A proper wash
load is a proper dryer load. Do not combine
loads. Avoid drying
very small loads or mixed
loads of heavy, hard-to-dry
items with
lightweight
ones.
•
Properly select and check exhaust venting.
Four
inch rigid metal ducting is recommended
to
prevent lint collection
and improve dryer
operation.
Periodically
check the ductwork
for
any obstructions
that could reduce the airflow
and efficiency.
•
Remove items from the dryer as soon as
tumbling
stops for best results and efficiency.
This reduces wrinkling
and ironing.
REVERSING
THE DOOR
The dryer door is designed
with flexibility
in mind.
It can be mounted on the dryer front so as to open
from left to right, or reversed and open from right
to left. This provides flexibility
for the dryer located
in a cramped
area or for the person preferring
a
different
door swing. Simply follow the steps as
listed.
Remove hinge hole covers and cover from
latch. These will be re-used.
2)
Rest door on knee for support.
3)
Remove 4 screws holding
hinges to front
panel.
4)
Turn door upside down.
5)
Support on knee.
6)
Insert screw in the small round hole first and
start by hand.
7)
Tighten screw to position door.
8)
Insert top screw of other hinge and tighten.
9)
Insert and tighten remaining
screws.
10)
Replace hinge hole covers and door latch
cover in opposite side.
