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  
to inform the reader of specific procedures where  
minor machine damage will occur if the procedure  
is not followed.  
7. Do not install or store the dryer where it will be  
exposed to the water and/or weather.  
8. Do not tamper with the controls.

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.  
instructions may result in conditions which can  
produce bodily injury and/or property damage.  
NOTE: The WARNING AND IMPORTANT  
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  
manufacturer or its service agent.

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

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  
the static pressure. Refer to Figure 14.  
NOTE: This can be measured with a manometer  
placed on the exhaust duct approximately 61 cm  
(2 feet) from the dryer. Refer to Figure 14.

Operation  
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  
room for tumbling. Figure 15 shows the ideal load  
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.

LINENS  
Helps and Hints  
D665IE0A  
WARNING  
To reduce the risk of fire, explosion, serious  
injury or death, clothes which have traces of  
any flammable substances such as cooking  
oil, machine oil, flammable chemicals,  
thinner, etc. must not be put into the dryer.  
W131  
The necessary suggestions and directions for  
installation and proper exhausting are given in  
the beginning of this manual.  
CYLINDER WITH WET  
PERMANENT PRESS  
D666IE0A  
Static electricity may cause garments of synthetic  
fibers (as in lingerie) to cling together, especially  
if they are overdried. The use of a fabric softener  
will soften clothes and reduce static electricity.  
Figure 15  
Do not wash or dry clothes that shed lint in the  
same load with permanent press or knit garments.  
Remove permanent press loads immediately after  
dryer stops.  
Follow the care labels on FLAME  
RETARDANT, SCOTCH-GUARD™, etc.,  
garments for the proper washing and drying.  
If loads should be damp for ironing, turn timer  
knob to the ENERGY SAVER setting, marked  
with a dot (), in Automatic or Time Dry cycles.

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.

Maintenance  
Cabinet  
Care of Your Dryer  
Wipe dryer cabinet as needed. If detergent, bleach or  
other washing products have been spilled on the dryer  
top, wipe immediately.  
WARNING  
To reduce the risk of an electric shock,  
serious injury or death, disconnect the  
electrical service to the dryer before  
cleaning the interior.  
Do not lay sharp or rough objects on or against the  
dryer. The finish could be damaged.  
Control Panel  
W132  
Use only a damp or sudsy cloth for cleaning the  
control panel.  
Dryer Interior  
Unstable dyes used in many denim blue jeans or  
brightly colored cotton garments may cause some  
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.

Maintenance  
Motor Overload Protector  
Lint Filter  
The dryer’s motor overload protector stops the motor  
automatically in the event of an overload. After  
cooling, the overload protector will reset itself. Dryer  
can be restarted by pushing the timer knob in. If  
overload protector cycles again, remove the dryer from  
use and call the service person to correct the problem.  
The lint filter is located at the front of the dryer in the  
lower part of the door opening.  
CLEAN THE LINT FILTER BEFORE DRYING  
EACH LOAD. Remove lint filter cover, clean lint filter  
and replace cover. Annually remove lint filter and  
screw to vacuum the duct under it.

Be sure the power cord is plugged all the way into the electrical outlet.  
Close the loading door.  
Be sure timer is not in COOL DOWN setting or NO HEAT cycle.  
Push timer knob in to start dryer.  
Has the laundry room fuse(s) blown or become loosened, or are circuit  
breakers open? The dryer itself does not have an electrical fuse. An  
electric dryer has an electrical circuit with two fuses.  
Has the motor overload protector cycled? Wait 10 minutes and try again.  
Is the timer in a heat setting?  
Check exhaust duct to outside to see if it is kinked, blocked or needs  
cleaning.  
Check weather hood to make sure flapper moves freely, has not been  
pushed in or has not been blocked.  
Automatic Cycle – Adjust to more or less dry setting.  
Timed Cycle – Allow more or less time.  
Clean the lint filter.  
Is the load too small? Small loads may not tumble properly or dry evenly.
