5

DRYER SAFETY

■ The appliance is intended, but not limited, to be used in

public areas.

■ Children of less than 3 years should be kept away unless

continuously supervised.

■ The appliance must be disconnected from it's power

source during service and when replacing parts.

■ If drum rotation is blocked due to trapped textiles,

disconnect the dryer from the electrical supply before

gently removing the blockage.

■ If the dryer is not heating, or appears to be defective or

damaged, do not use it. Contact the owner.

■ Do not install or store the dryer where it will be exposed

to the weather.

■ Do not tamper with controls.

■ Clean dryer lint screen before or after each load.

■ Do not use this dryer without the lint screen in place.

■ Do not repair or replace any part of the dryer or attempt

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of re, electric shock, or injury to persons when using the dryer, follow basic precautions,

including the following:

■ Read all instructions before using the dryer.

■ This dryer is intended only for drying clothes and textiles

that have been washed in water. Do not use for any other

purpose.

■ WARNING: If you smell gas, do not use the dryer or any

electrical equipment nearby. Warn other people to clear

the area. Contact the dryer owner immediately.

■ 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

re. To reduce the risk of re due to contaminated loads,

the nal 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.

■ If it is unavoidable that fabrics that contain vegetable or

cooking oil or that have been contaminated by hair care

products be placed in a tumble dryer, they should rst

be washed in hot water with extra detergent – this will

reduce, but not eliminate the hazard.

■ Do not dry articles that have been previously cleaned

in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with gas,

dry-cleaning solvents, other ammable, or explosive

substances as they give off vapors that could ignite

or explode.

■ Items that have been soiled with substances such as

acetone, alcohol, gas, kerosene, spot removers,

turpentine, waxes, and wax removers should be washed

in hot water with extra detergent before being dried in

the dryer.

■ Do not dry unwashed items in the dryer.

■ Do not use this dryer if industrial chemicals have been

used for cleaning. The possible presence of residual

quantities of aggressive or decomposed chemicals in the

load may produce damage to the dryer and harmful fumes.

■ Do not allow children to play on, in, or with the dryer.

Close supervision of children is necessary when the dryer

is used near children.

■ This dryer is not intended for use by persons (including

children) with reduced physical, sensory, or mental

capabilities, or lack of experience or knowledge,

unless they have been given supervision or instruction

concerning use of the dryer by a person responsible for

their safety.

■ Before the dryer is removed from service or discarded,

remove the door to the dryer compartment.

■ Do not reach into the dryer if the drum is moving.

■ Do not open door while dryer is in operation. It will stop.

■ When loading or re-loading the dryer, avoid touching hot

metal parts of the drum (burn risk).

■ Remove all objects from pockets such as lighters and

matches.

■ Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by

children without supervision.

■ WARNING: The appliance must not be supplied through

an external switching device, such as a timer, or connected

to a circuit that is regularly switched on and off by a utility.

■ The dryer must not be installed behind a lockable door, a

sliding door, or a door with a hinge on the opposite side to

that of the dryer in such a way that full opening of the dryer

door is restricted.

GAS DRYER INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes and ordinances.

In Australia and New Zealand, refer to AS/NZS 5601.1 – Gas

Installations.

Gas Supply

Before installation, check that the local gas distribution

conditions, nature of gas and pressure, and the adjustment of

the appliance are compatible. Burner information will be found

on the model/serial rating plate in the door recess of the dryer.

If this information does not agree with the type of gas available,

see your dealer.

Natural Gas:

This dryer is factory adjusted for use with NATURAL GAS (G20),

and no further adjustment should be required at installation.

L.P. Gas:

This dryer is also certied for use with L.P. (propane or butane)

gases with appropriate conversion. No attempt shall be made

to convert the appliance from the gas specied on the model/

serial rating plate for use with a different gas without consulting

the serving gas supplier.

Conversion must be done by a Whirlpool authorized service

technician. Gas conversion kit (European Country), part number

W10233219, is available for purchase from your dealer. Gas

conversion kit (Australia), part number W10315369, is available

for purchase from your dealer. Full instructions are supplied

with the kit.

Natural Gas (France/Belgium):

This dryer is also certied for France/Belgium for use with G20/

G25 gases (20 mbar/25 mbar) with appropriate conversion. No

attempt should be made to convert this appliance from the gas

specied on the gas rating label for use with a different gas

without consulting the serving gas supplier. Gas conversion

must be done by a Whirlpool authorized gas service technician.

Conversion kit, part number (W10181947) is available for

purchase from your dealer. Full instructions are supplied with

the kit.

Supply line requirements:

Provide a rigid gas supply line to the dryer location. It should

be minimum 12.5 mm (1/2") ID. When acceptable to the gas

supplier and local codes, 10 mm (3/8") ID rigid supply line may

be used for lengths under 6.1 m (20'). Pipe-joint compounds

resistant to the action of L.P. gas must be used.

NOTE: For installation in Australia and New Zealand, refer to

AS/NZS 5601 for pipe sizing details. All piping is to be in

accordance with AS/NZS 5601.1 – Gas Installations.

Gas connection to the dryer itself should be made by means

of a exible gas hose suitable for the appliance and gas

category in accordance with national installation regulations. If

in doubt, contact the gas supplier. It should be minimum

10 mm (3/8") ID.

A means of restraint should be used between the dryer and the

wall to avoid straining of the rigid gas supply when the dryer

is moved. An appropriate length of chain and a wall hook is

recommended.

The dryer gas inlet connection is a 3/8" NPT thread. An adapter

is supplied for conversion to standard ISO.228-1 thread

(3/8" BSP).

Check for leaks by using an approved noncorrosive leak-

detection solution. Bubbles will show a leak. Correct any leak

found. A pressure measurement tapping is provided on the gas

valve within the dryer, accessible after removal of the lower

front panel.

The dryer must be disconnected from the gas supply piping

system during any pressure testing of that system.

DRYER VENTING REQUIREMENTS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of re, this dryer MUST BE

EXHAUSTED OUTDOORS.

IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes and ordinances.

In Australia and New Zealand, refer to AS/NZS 5601.1 – Gas

Installations.

Dryer exhaust must not be connected into any gas vent,

chimney, wall, ceiling, attic, crawlspace, or a concealed space

of a building. Only rigid or exible metal vent shall be used for

exhausting.

■ Only a 102 mm (4") heavy, metal exhaust vent and clamps

may be used.

■ Do not use plastic or metal foil vent.

Rigid metal vent:

■ Recommended for best drying performance and to avoid

crushing and kinking.

Flexible metal vent: (Acceptable only if accessible to clean)

■ Must be fully extended and supported in nal dryer location.

■ Remove excess to avoid sagging and kinking that may result

in reduced airow and poor performance.

■ Do not install in enclosed walls, ceilings, or oors.

■ The total length should not exceed 2.4 m (7

3

⁄

4

ft.).

NOTE: If using an existing vent system, clean lint from entire

length of the system and make sure exhaust hood is not

plugged with lint. Replace plastic or metal foil vents with rigid

metal or exible metal vents. Review “Vent System Chart” and

if necessary, modify existing vent system to achieve best drying

performance.

102 mm (4") Heavy, Metal Exhaust Vent

Elbows:

■ 45° elbows provide better airow than 90° elbows.

Clamps:

■ Use clamps to seal all joints.

■ Exhaust vent must not be connected or secured with screws

or other fastening devices that extend into interior of duct

and catch lint. Do not use duct tape.

For vent systems not covered by the vent specication chart,

see your parts distributor.

Provision must be made for enough air for combustion and

ventilation. (Check governing codes and ordinances.) See

“Recessed Area and Closet Installation Instructions” in the

“Location Requirements” section.

A 102 mm (4") outlet hood is preferred. However, a 64 mm

(2

1

⁄

2

") outlet exhaust hood may be used. A 64 mm (2

1

⁄

2

") outlet

creates greater back pressure than other hood types. For

permanent installation, a stationary vent system is required.

Connect Vent

1. If connecting to existing vent, make sure the vent is clean.

2. Using a 102 mm (4") clamp, connect vent to exhaust outlet

in dryer.

NOTE: Do not remove vent collar.

Vent System Length

3. Tighten hose clamp with Phillips screwdriver.

4. Make sure the vent is secured to exhaust hood with

a 102 mm (4") clamp.

5. Move dryer into nal position. Do not crush or kink vent.

Make sure dryer is level.

NOTE: Testing for proper ventilation should be done with a

Manometer. Minimum: 0.01" (0.2 mm). Maximum: 0.6" (16 mm).

DRYER VENTING REQUIREMENTS

1. Connect gas supply to dryer. If the exible gas hose has

10 mm (3/8") BSP thread, use the supplied conversion

thread adapter. Use pipe-joint compound resistant to the

action of L.P. gas for gas connections.

Make Gas Connection

GAS SUPPLY CONNECTION (on some models)

The outside end of main vent should have a sweep elbow

directed downward.

If main vent travels vertically through the roof, rather than

through wall, install a 180° sweep elbow on end of vent at least

610 mm (2 ft.) above surface of roof.

The opening in wall or roof shall have a diameter 13 mm (1⁄2")

larger than vent diameter. Vent should be centered in opening.

Do not install screening over end of vent for best performance.

A main vent can be used for venting a group of dryers. The

main vent should be sized to remove 5663 l/min. (200 CFM) of

air per dryer. Large-capacity lint screens of proper design may

be used in main vent if checked and cleaned frequently. The

room where the dryers are located should have make-up air

equal to or greater than CFM of all the dryers in the room.

Back-draft dampers are available from your distributor and

should be installed in the vent of each dryer to keep exhausted

air from returning into dryers and to keep exhaust in balance

within main vent. Unobstructed return air openings are required.

Although usually each single-load dryer should have an

unobstructed outdoor air opening of 154 cm

2

(24 in.

2

) (based

on 6.5 cm

2

[1 in.

2

] per 252 kcal [1,000 Btu]), common make-up

air openings are also acceptable. Set up common openings so

the make-up air is distributed equally to all of the dryers. Keep

in mind that the coverage area must be increased by 33% to

account for the use of registers or louvers over the openings.

Also, make-up air openings should not be installed near the

location where exhaust vents exit the building.

Each vent should enter the main vent at an angle pointing in

the direction of the airow. Vents entering from the opposite

side should be staggered to reduce the exhausted air from

interfering with the other vents.

The maximum angle of each vent entering the main vent should

be no more than 30°.

Keep air openings free of dry cleaning uid fumes. Fumes

create acids which, when drawn through the dryer heating

units, can damage dryers and items being dried.

A clean-out cover should be located on the main vent for

periodic cleaning of the vent system.

NOTE: For more dryer venting information, please refer to

Whirlpool document W10100920.

If necessary for service, open the toe panel. Use a putty

knife to press on the 2 toe panel locks located at the top

of the toe panel. Pull downward on the toe panel to open.

Toe panel is hinged at the bottom.

2. Open the shut-off valve in the gas supply line and make

sure the dryer has its own gas supply opened.

3. Test all connections by brushing on an approved

noncorrosive leak-detection solution. Bubbles will show

a leak. Correct any leaks found.
