or explosive substances as they give off vapors
that could ignite or explode.
WARNING
Indicates a hazardous situation that, if not
avoided, could cause severe personal
injury or death.
4. Do not allow children to play on or in the dryer.
Close supervision of children is necessary when
the dryer is used near children. This is a safety
rule for all appliances.
CAUTION
Indicates a hazardous situation that, if not
avoided, may cause minor or moderate
personal injury or property damage.
5. Before the dryer is removed from service or
discarded, remove the door to the drying
compartment.
Additional precautionary statements (“IMPORTANT”
and “NOTE”) are followed by specific instructions.
6. Do not reach into the dryer if the cylinder is
revolving.
IMPORTANT: The word “IMPORTANT” is used

Safety Information
12. Always clean the lint filter after every load. A
layer of lint in the filter reduces drying efficiency
and prolongs drying time.
22. Remove laundry immediately after the dryer
stops.
23. Always read and follow manufacturer’s
instructions on packages of laundry and cleaning
aids. Heed all warnings or precautions. To reduce
the risk of poisoning or chemical burns, keep
them out of reach of children at all times
(preferably in a locked cabinet).
13. Keep area around the exhaust opening and
adjacent surrounding area free from the
accumulation of lint, dust and dirt.
14. The interior of the dryer and the exhaust duct
should be cleaned periodically by qualified
service personnel.
24. Do not tumble fiberglass curtains and draperies
unless the label says it can be done. If they are
dried, wipe out the cylinder with a damp cloth to
remove particles of fiberglass.
15. Dryer will not operate with the loading door
open. DO NOT by-pass the door safety switch by
permitting the dryer to operate with the door
open. The dryer will stop tumbling when the door
is opened. Do not use the dryer if it does not stop
tumbling when the door is opened or starts
tumbling without pressing or turning the START
mechanism. Remove the dryer from use and call
the service person.
25. ALWAYS follow the fabric care instructions
supplied by the garment manufacturer.
26. Never operate the dryer with any guards and/or
panels removed.
27. DO NOT operate the dryer with missing or
broken parts.
16. Do not put articles soiled with vegetable or
cooking oil in the dryer, as these oils may not be
removed during washing. Due to the remaining
oil, the fabric may catch on fire by itself.
28. DO NOT by-pass any safety devices.
29. Failure to install, maintain, and/or operate this
machine according to the manufacturer’s
17. To reduce the risk of fire, DO NOT put clothes
which have traces of any flammable substances
such as machine oil, flammable chemicals,
thinner, etc., or anything containing wax or
chemicals such as in mops and cleaning cloths, or
anything dry-cleaned at home with dry-cleaning
solvent in the dryer.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS appearing in this
manual are not meant to cover all possible
conditions and situations that may occur. Common
sense, caution and care must be exercised when
installing, maintaining, or operating the dryer.
18. Use the dryer only for its intended purpose,
drying clothes.
Always contact your dealer, distributor, service agent
or the manufacturer about any problems or conditions
you do not understand.
19. Always disconnect the electrical power to the
dryer before attempting service. Disconnect the
power cord by grasping the plug, not the cord.
20. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced
by a special cord or assembly available from the

Dryer Exhaust Requirements
WARNING
A clothes dryer produces combustible lint.
To reduce the risk of fire and combustion
gas accumulation the dryer MUST be
exhausted to the outdoors.
W116
To reduce the risk of fire and the
accumulation of combustion gases, DO NOT
exhaust dryer air into a window well, gas
vent, chimney or enclosed, unventilated
area, such as an attic, wall, ceiling, crawl
space under a building or concealed space
DO

of a building.
W045
Figure 11
To reduce the risk of fire, DO NOT use
plastic or thin foil ducting to exhaust the
dryer.
Exhaust Direction
The dryer can be exhausted to the outdoors through the
back, left, right or bottom of the dryer.
W354
Exhaust System Materials
Dryer is shipped from factory ready for rear exhaust;
no kits required.
Exhaust duct must be 10.2 cm (4 inches) in diameter
having no obstructions. Rigid metal duct is
recommended. Non-combustible flexible metal duct is
acceptable. Do not use plastic or thin foil ducting
because it contributes to poor drying performance and
collects lint, which can lead to a fire hazard.
Exhausting the dryer through sides or bottom can be
accomplished by installing a DK1 Sales Accessory
(Directional Exhaust Kit 528P3) available as optional
equipment at extra cost.
Never install flexible duct in concealed spaces, such as
a wall or ceiling.
DO NOT use sheet metal screws on exhaust pipe joints
or other fastening means which extend into the duct
that could catch lint and reduce the efficiency of the
exhaust system. Secure all joints with duct tape. Use as
few elbows as possible.
Make-Up Air Requirements
For proper operation it is important that you locate the
dryer in an area that has an ample amount of make-up
air to replace the amount exhausted by the dryer.
Energy efficient homes with low air infiltration rates
should be equipped with an air exchanger that can
accommodate on demand make-up air needs in the
home. These devices can be obtained through your
building contractor or building material suppliers.

Exhaust System
IMPORTANT: Keep exhaust duct as short as
possible.
NOTE: Be certain old ducts are cleaned before
installing your new dryer.
For best drying results, recommended maximum
length of exhaust system is shown in table below.
To prevent backdraft when dryer is not in operation,
outer end of exhaust pipe must have a weather hood
with hinged dampers (obtain locally).
NOTE: Weather hood should be installed at least
30.5 cm (12 inches) above the ground.

Installation
Exhausting the dryer in hard-to-reach locations can be
accomplished by installing the 521P3 Flexible Metal
Vent Kit, available as optional equipment at extra cost.
The kit comes in two halves that can be attached
separately to the dryer and wall outlet. Once attached,
the dryer can be slid back into position and the two
halves can be connected from the front.
Dryer Airflow
Efficient dryer operation requires proper dryer airflow.
Proper dryer airflow can be evaluated by measuring

Load
Before Drying
Do not overload your dryer. Bulk, not weight,
Energy Saving Tips
determines the load size. There should be space in the
dryer for the clothes to tumble freely. Large and small
pieces together make up loads which will tumble well.
Permanent press loads should be smaller to provide
sizes for fabrics.
●
●
●
●
●
Make sure the lint filter is always clean.
Do not overload the dryer.
Do not overdry items.
Remove items to be ironed while still damp.
Use the correct cycle for the type of fabric being
dried.
●
●
Do not open the door during the drying cycle.
Plan to do your laundry on low humidity days;
your clothes will dry faster.
●
Dry multiple loads of clothes one right after
another so dryer interior does not have to be
reheated for each load.

Operation
Automatic Regular/Delicate Cycle
Available Drying Cycles
Use for sturdy items like play or work clothes and also
for delicate items. The type of heat is determined by
choosing the proper Fabric Selector option. There are
two settings in the AUTOMATIC REGULAR/
DELICATE cycle – MORE DRY and LESS DRY.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock,
serious injury or death to persons, read the
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
before operating the dryer.
Time Dry Cycle
W429
This cycle will operate dryer for up to 75 minutes.
Cottons and heavyweight items dry best between 50
and 75 minutes, and lightweight items dry best
between 20 and 40 minutes.
NOTE: Use the AUTOMATIC cycles for drying
items that can be dried with heat. These cycles
automatically dry loads to the dryness level
selected.
Automatic Permanent Press/Knits Cycle
MORE DRY will dry very small loads and some heavy
items, such as blue jeans, but will overdry lightweight
items, such as sheets and shirts. Overdrying can cause
wrinkling, shrinking, excessive lint conditions, and
will use more energy than necessary.
Use for permanent press items and synthetics. The
type of heat is determined by selecting the proper
Fabric Selector option. There are two settings in the
AUTOMATIC PERMANENT PRESS/KNITS cycle –
MORE DRY and LESS DRY.
LESS DRY, which uses the least energy, will dry large
loads and lightweight items, such as sheets and shirts,
but might leave other items, such as denim and heavy
bath towels, more damp.
To increase energy savings and to make sure loads are
dried without overdrying, set your loads on LESS DRY.
If items are damp at the end of a cycle, the timer knob
needs to be set closer to the MORE DRY setting the
next time these loads are dried. If items are overdry at
the end of a cycle, the timer knob should be set closer
to COOL DOWN when these loads are dried again.
Remember the settings that work best to get ideal
drying results.
The COOL DOWN period at the end of each cycle
provides items a chance to tumble with no heat and
cool down to room temperature. This prevents
wrinkles from setting if items cannot be cared for
immediately.
The ENERGY SAVER/DAMP DRY settings, marked
with a dot (•), show which settings will use the least
energy and will leave items damp for easier ironing.
NOTE: The timer knob will not advance as quickly
in the AUTOMATIC cycles as it does in the TIME
DRY cycle. The time it takes for the timer to
advance depends on the type and size of the load
being dried.

discoloration of the interior surfaces. This slight color
change will do no harm to other clothes.
Exhaust System
●
●
●
Keep dryer area clear and free from combustible
materials, gasoline, and other flammable vapors
and liquids. Do not obstruct the flow of
ventilation air.
The dryer may be cleaned by wiping the surfaces using
a soft cloth and a non-abrasive paste of powdered
laundry detergent and hot water or liquid household
cleaner followed by a short heat cycle with a load of
rags.
The exhaust duct should be inspected after one
year of use and cleaned if necessary. Inspect and
clean exhaust duct every one to two years as
required thereafter.
To remove crayon or ballpoint ink off the dryer drum,
put the heat on high and use old rags in the dryer to
absorb the crayon or ink. If unsuccessful, contact the
appliance dealer. DO NOT use any chemicals in the
dryer.
Vent hood should be checked and cleaned
regularly to assure that it is working properly.
NOTE: Verify proper operation after servicing.
IMPORTANT: The use of chlorine bleach for
removing any discolorations should be avoided
because bleach could damage the finish.
