STACKED WASHER/DRYER SAFETY

n It is recommended that the owner post, in a prominent location, instructions for the customer’s use in the event the customer

smells gas. This information should be obtained from your gas supplier.

n Post the following warning in a prominent location.

FOR YOUR SAFETY

1. DO NOT USE OR STORE PETROL OR OTHER FLAMMABLE MATERIALS IN THIS APPLIANCE OR NEAR THIS APPLIANCE.

2. DO NOT SPRAY AEROSOLS IN THE VICINITY OF THIS APPLIANCE WHILE IT IS IN OPERATION.

3. DO NOT MODIFY THIS APPLIANCE.

STACKED WASHER/DRYER SAFETY

n If drum rotation is blocked due to trapped textiles,

disconnect the dryer from the electrical supply before gently

removing the blockage.

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

damaged, do not use it. Contact the owner.

n Do not install or store the washer/dryer where it will be

exposed to the weather.

n Do not tamper with controls.

n Clean dryer lint screen before or after each load.

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

n Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced

in a hot water system that has not been used for 2 weeks

or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water

system has not been used for such a period, before using

the washer, turn on all hot water faucets and let the water

ﬂow from each for several minutes. This will release any

accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is ﬂammable, do not

smoke or use an open ﬂame during this time.

n Do not repair or replace any part of the washer/dryer or

attempt any servicing unless speciﬁcally recommended

in this Use and Care Guide 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 The ﬁnal part of a tumble dryer cycle occurs without heat

(cool-down cycle) to ensure that the articles are left at a

temperature that ensures that the items will not be damaged.

n WARNING: Never stop 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. (Avoids risk of

spontaneous combustion).

n In case of electrical supply failure, remove the load quickly

and spread it out to avoid risk of spontaneous combustion.

n Keep area around the exhaust opening and adjacent

surrounding areas free from the accumulation of lint, dust,

and dirt.

n The fresh air ventilation openings into the room and into

the dryer must not be blocked or sealed.

n Emergency stop control: The mains plug should be removed

in an emergency.

n The interior of the dryer and dryer exhaust vent should be

cleaned periodically by qualiﬁed service personnel.

n See “Electrical Requirements” section of the Installation

Instructions booklet for grounding instructions.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

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

including the following:

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

n Read all instructions before using the washer/dryer.

n This dryer is intended only for drying clothes and textiles

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

purpose.

n 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.

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.

n 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 ﬁrst be

washed in hot water with extra detergent – this will reduce,

but not eliminate the hazard.

n Do not wash or dry articles that have been previously

cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with petrol,

dry-cleaning solvents, other ﬂammable, or explosive

substances as they give off vapors that could ignite or

explode.

n Items that have been soiled with substances such

as acetone, alcohol, petrol, kerosene, spot removers,

turpentine, waxes, and wax removers should be washed

in hot water with extra detergent before being dried in

the dryer.

n Do not add gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other

ﬂammable, or explosive substances to the wash water.

These substances give off vapors that could ignite or

explode.

n Do not dry unwashed items in the dryer.

n 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.

n Do not allow children to play on or in the washer/dryer.

Close supervision of children is necessary when the

washer/dryer is used near children.

n 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.

n Before the washer/dryer is removed from service

or discarded, remove the doors to the washer/dryer

compartments.

n Do not reach into the washer/dryer if the tub, agitator

or drum is moving.

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

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

metal parts of the drum (burn risk).

Stacked Washer/Electric Dryer Electrical

Requirements

This is 3-wire appliance which must be earthed.

This washer/dryer is supplied without an electric cord and plug. It

must be connected by a competent electrician to a single-phase

electricity supply at the voltage shown on the dataplate, using

a suitable ﬁxed wiring installation in accordance with local and

national wiring regulations.

n A 3-wire circular cord of minimum conductor size 2.5 mm

cross-section area should be used.

n A 30A supply fuse should be used, and a switch having

a contact separation in both poles that provides full

disconnection under over-voltage category III conditions must

be incorporated into the ﬁxed wiring in accordance with local

wiring regulations. The washer/dryer should be positioned

so that the disconnection switch is clearly visible and easily

accessible to the user. This disconnection switch also provides

the function of an emergency stop control for the user.

n A cord clamp bush is provided on the washer/dryer, and

should be tightened on completion of wiring. The electrical

mains terminals are located behind the small rear access panel

(terminal block cover), and connections should be made in

accordance with the terminal markings. Remember to replace

the terminal access panel (terminal block cover).

NOTE: In accordance with the European EMC Directive

(2004/108/EC), the maximum electrical supply system impedance

to which the electric dryer should be connected is declared to be

0.054 Ohm + j0.034 Ohm.

NOTE: Electrical safety standards: The manufacturer has

chosen compliance with IEC/EN.60335 standards as the most

appropriate for this product.

If codes permit and an additional earth bond wire is used, it is

recommended that a qualiﬁed electrician determine that the earth

bond path is adequate.

Recommended Earthing Method

It is your responsibility to contact a qualiﬁed electrical installer

to ensure that the electrical installation is adequate and in

conformance with all local codes and ordinances.

DRYER VENTING REQUIREMENTS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of ﬁre, 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.

■ Following these venting requirements will minimise ducting air

noise.

■ Adequate ventilation has to be provided to avoid the backﬂow

of gases into the room from appliances burning other fuels,

including open ﬁres (i.e. available airﬂow into the room should

match airﬂow out from the room).

■ 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 ﬂexible metal vent shall be used for

exhausting.

■ Do not use an exhaust hood with a magnetic latch.

■ Only a 4" (102 mm) 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 ﬁnal dryer location.

■ Remove excess to avoid sagging and kinking that may result in

reduced airﬂow and poor performance.

■ Do not install in enclosed walls, ceilings, or ﬂoors.

■ The total length should not exceed 7

⁄

ft. (2.4 m).

■ An exhaust hood should cap the vent to keep rodents and

insects from entering the building.

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 ﬂexible

metal vents. Review “Vent System Chart” and if necessary, modify

existing vent system to achieve best drying performance.

102 mm

(

102 mm (4") Heavy, Metal Exhaust Vent

Elbows:

■ 45° elbows provide better airﬂow than 90° elbows.

■ Plan installation to use the fewest number of elbows and turns.

■ Allow as much room as possible when using elbows or making

turns. Bend vent gradually to avoid kinking.

■ Vent outlet is located at the center of the bottom dryer back.

■ The vent can be routed up, down, left, right, behind the dryer,

or straight out the back of the dryer.

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.

Improper venting can cause moisture and lint to collect

indoors, which may result in:

Moisture damage to woodwork, furniture, paint, wallpaper,

carpets, etc.

Housecleaning problems and health problems.

For vent systems not covered by the vent speciﬁcation 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

“Stacked Washer/Gas Dryer Location” and “Stacked Washer/

Electric Dryer Location” sections.

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

⁄

") outlet exhaust hood may be used. A 64 mm (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 ﬁnal position. Do not crush or kink vent. Make

sure dryer is level.

Vent Collar

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 Damper Kit, Part No. 3391910, is 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.

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

direction of the airﬂow. 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 ﬂuid 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.
