USING THE DR

YER

Venting the Dryer

For the best drying performance, the dryer needs to be properly vented. The dryer will use more energy and run longer if it is 
not vented to the specifications below. Carefully follow the details on Exhausting in the Installation Instructions.

This dryer MUST be exhausted to the outdoors.
Use only 4” rigid metal ducting for the home exhaust duct.
Use only 4” rigid metal or UL-listed dryer transition duct to connect the dryer to the home exhaust.

DO NOT

 use a plastic vent.

DO NOT

 exhaust into a chimney, kitchen exhaust, gas vent, wall, ceiling, attic, crawl space, or 

concealed space of a building.

DO NOT

 install a screen in or over the exhaust duct.

DO NOT

 install a booster fan in the exhaust duct.

DO NOT

 use duct longer than specified in the exhaust length table.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or fire.

The  Exterior:

  Wipe  or  dust  any  spills  or  washing 

compounds  with  a  damp  cloth.  Dryer  control  panel  and 
finishes may be damaged by some laundry pretreatment 
soil  and  stain  remover  products.  Apply  these  products 
away from the dryer. The fabric may then be washed and 
dried  normally.  Damage  to  your  dryer  caused  by  these 
products is not covered by your warranty.

The Lint Filter:

 Clean the lint filter before each use. 

Slide  out  the  grid  that  covers  the  filter.  Run  your  fingers 
across the filter. A waxy buildup may form on the lint filter 
from using dryer-added fabric softener sheets. To remove 
this buildup, wash the lint screen in warm, soapy water. Dry 
thoroughly and replace. Do not operate the dryer without 
the lint filter and grid in place. Have a qualified technician 
vacuum the lint from the dryer once a year.

Dryer  Interior  and  Duct:

 

The  interior  of  the 

appliance and exhaust duct should be cleaned once a year 
by qualified service personnel.

The Exhaust Duct:

 

Inspect and clean the exhaust 

ducting at least once a year to prevent clogging. A partially 
clogged exhaust can lengthen the drying time.

Follow these steps:

1. Turn off electrical supply by disconnecting the plug from 

the wall socket.

2. Disconnect the duct from the dryer.

3. Vacuum the duct with the hose attachment and 

reconnect the duct.

The  Exhaust  Hood:

 

Check  with  a  mirror

 

that  the 

inside flaps of the hood move freely when operating. Make 
sure that there is no wildlife (birds, insects, etc.) nesting 
inside the duct or hood.
