DRYER SAFETY

Your safety and the safety of others are very important.

We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety

messages.

This is the safety alert symbol.

This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.

All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word “DANGER” or “WARNING.” These

words mean:

DANGER

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't

immediately follow instructions.

WARNING

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don’t follow

instructions.

All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can

happen if the instructions are not followed.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using your appliance, follow basic precautions,

including the following:

n Read all instructions before using the appliance.

n Do not dry articles that have been previously cleaned in,

washed in, soaked in, or spotted with gasoline, dry-cleaning

solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances, as

they give off vapors that could ignite or explode.

n Do not allow children to play on or in the appliance. Close

supervision of children is necessary when the appliance is

used near children.

n Before the appliance is removed from service or discarded,

remove the door to the drying compartment.

n Do not reach into the appliance if the drum is moving.

n Do not install or store this appliance where it will be

exposed to the weather.

n Do not tamper with controls.

n Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance or attempt

any servicing unless specifically recommended in the user-

maintenance instructions or in published user-repair

instructions that you understand and have the skills to carry

out.

n Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static

unless recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric

softener or product.

n Do not use heat to dry articles containing foam rubber or

similarly textured rubber-like materials.

n Clean lint screen before or after each load.

n Keep area around the exhaust opening and adjacent

surrounding areas free from the accumulation of lint, dust,

and dirt.

n The interior of the appliance and exhaust duct should be

cleaned periodically by qualified service personnel.

n Do not place items exposed to cooking oils in your dryer.

Items contaminated with cooking oils may contribute to a

chemical reaction that could cause a load to catch fire. To

reduce the risk of fire due to contaminated loads, the final

part of a tumble dryer cycle occurs without heat (cool down

period). Avoid stopping a tumble dryer before the end of the

drying cycle unless all items are quickly removed and

spread out so that the heat is dissipated.

n Do not use replacement parts that have not been

recommended by the manufacturer (e.g. parts made at

home using a 3D printer).

n See the Installation Instructions for grounding requirements

and installation.

Why is de drum of my dryer larger than that of my washing machine, even though they have the same capacity? Verified

To properly dry laundry, a dryer needs to have air. This needs space and that's why the drum needs to be larger.

What is the difference between a condenser dryer and a vented dryer? Verified

In a condenser dryer the condensed water vapour is drained and collected in an internal reservoir. In a vented dryer the hot, moist air is drained through a hose, for example out of a window. A vented dryer is cheaper to use than a condenser dryer

Can I stack my dryer and washing machine? Verified

In general it is possible to directly stack a dryer and washing machine directly on top of each other. This only works with front loading models. However, it is advisable to use a fitting accessory to do so. This will prevent the machines from vibrating and falling off and also prevents damage to the bottom machine.

Can I connect a dryer to an extension cord? Verified

Appliances that require large amounts of power, like a dryer, can not be connected to all extension cords. See what the power usage of the dryer is, which is indicated in Watt, and check if the extension cord can handle this. There are extension cords with thicker cables that are made to handle larger appliances.

What is the difference in usage between a washer-dryer and a separate washing machine and dryer? Verified

The biggest advantage of a washer-dryer is that it takes less space. However, a separate dryer will be able to dry more than a washer-dryer. A washer-dryer also uses relatively more energy and requires more time.
