What are Sensor Dry and Time Dry?
Your dryer provides sensor drying and time drying programs.
Sensor Dry : Dryer senses electronically laundry humidity and it automatically determines operation time
based on the dryness of the load and the selected program. At times, you can see sudden increase or
decrease on operation time. It happens because a sensor will detect laundry humidity with a certain period.
Sudden change on operation time is not a malfunction.
Time Dry : Time Dry is that you can set operation time manually to complete drying. Or use Time Dry to have
drying performance if clothes are still damp after sensor dry cycle is finished. Time Dry is more effective for
heavyweight and bulky items such as king-size bed sheets and thick work clothes.

In the United States, an individual manual shutoff
valve MUST be installed within at least 6 feet
(1.8m) of the dryer, in accordance with the
National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1. A 1/8 in.
N.P.T. pipe plug must be installed as shown.
5. If using a rigid pipe, the rigid pipe should be 1/2
inch IPS. If acceptable under local codes and
ordinances and when acceptable to your gas
supplier, 3/8 inch approved tubing may be used
where lengths are less than 20 feet (6.1m).
Larger tubing should be used for lengths in
excess of 20 feet (6.1m). It is also important that
you use pipe joint compound that is insoluble in
LP gas.
6. To reduce the danger of gas leaks, explosion, and
fire, please follow and observe the following
instructions and WARNINGS:
• Connect the dryer to the type of gas shown on the
nameplate;
• Use new flexible stainless steel connectors;
• Use Teflon tape and pipe joint compound
insoluble in LP gas on all pipe threads;
• Purge gas supply of air and sediment before
connecting the gas supply to the dryer; in order to
prevent gas valve contamination, before tightening
connection between gas supply and dryer, purge
remaining air until odor of gas is identified; and
• DO NOT use an open flame to inspect for gas
leaks; instead, use a non-corrosive leak detection
fluid.
WARNING!
• Use a new AGA or CSA approved gas
supply line.
• Install a shut-off valve.
• Securely tighten all gas connections.
• If connected to LP, have a qualified person
make sure gas pressure does not exceed
13 in. water column.
• Examples of a qualified person include
licensed heating personnel, authorized gas
company personnel, and authorized service
personnel.
• Failure to do so can result in death,
explosion, or fire.
!
WARNING!
DO NOT attempt any disassembly of the
dryer, any disassembly requires the
attention and tools of an authorized and
qualified service person or company.

Part 8 EXHAUST REQUIREMENTS AND MAINTENANCE
Following are important instructions and information concerning the exhaust requirements for your dryer.
Important Warning: To reduce the risk of fire, combustion, or accumulation of combustible gases, DO NOT
exhaust dryer air into an enclosed and unventilated area, such as an attic, wall, ceiling, crawl space, chimney, gas
vent, or concealed space of a building. To reduce the risk of fire, DO NOT exhaust the dryer with plastic or thin foil
ducting.
Exhaust Requirements and Instructions:
1. Venting materials are not provided with the dryer
and you should obtain the necessary venting
materials locally. For example, the outer end of
exhaust pipe must have a weather hood with
hinged dampers to prevent back-draft when the
dryer is not in use.
2. The exhaust duct must be four inches (10.2 cm)
in diameter with no obstructions. The exhaust
duct should be kept as short as possible. Make
sure to clean any old ducts before installing your
new dryer.
3. Rigid metal duct is recommended. Do not install
flexible duct in concealed spaces.
Non-combustible flexible metal duct is
acceptable. Do not use plastic or thin foil ducting.
4. 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.
5. To maximize operating results, please observe the
duct length limitations noted in the chart above.

Part 8 EXHAUST REQUIREMENTS AND MAINTENANCE
Exhaust and Dryer Maintenance
1. After one year of use, the interior and complete
exhaust system of the dryer should be examined
and cleaned if necessary.
2. Before one year of use, when drying performance
has been suddenly unsatisfied in the past several
cases, please examine and clean the exhaust duct
for better drying performance.
3. Check the weather hoods frequently to ensure
the dampers are moving freely, that the dampers
are not pushed in and that nothing has been set
against the dampers.
4. A qualified service person or company should be
used to perform this maintenance.
5. A Flexible Metal Vent Kit, available at extra cost,
can be used to exhaust the dryer when it is placed
in hard to reach places. This Kit comes in two
pieces, one of which is attached to the dryer and
the other is attached to the wall exhaust outlet.
Following attachment of the two separate pieces
to the dryer and the wall, the dryer may be
returned to its final position, after which the two
pieces themselves can be connected.
7. Ordinarily, the dryer drum will need no care.
Wipe the exterior of the dryer as required, and
always immediately wipe the exterior of the
dryer in the event any detergent, bleach, or other
washing products is spilled on the dryer, because
these products may cause permanent damage to
the exterior finish of the dryer.
8. Clean the control panel with a damp cloth as
necessary. Warning: spray pre-wash products
may damage the finish of the control panel.
9. Please clean the lint filter either before drying
each load or after drying each load.
10. Always make sure the lint filter is clean before
starting a new load, because a clogged lint filter
may increase drying times.
11. Annually remove the lint filter and attach it to
the vacuum duct. See item #2 above.
12. Please note that the wiring diagram is provided
inside the dryer control hood. Label all wires
prior to disconnection when servicing the dryer,
because wiring errors can cause serious injury
to you and your dryer.
Cleaning the Lint Screen
1. Clean the lint filter either before drying each load
or after drying each load. Always make sure the
lint filter is clean before starting a new load,
because a clogged lint filter may increase drying
times.
2. To clean, pull the lint screen straight up and roll
any lint off the screen with your fingers.
Do not rinse or wash screen to remove lint,
because wet lint is hard to remove. Push the lint
screen firmly back into place.
3. Always ensure the lint screen is firmly secured
before running the dryer. Running the dryer with
a loose lint screen may cause overheating and
damage to the dryer and articles being dried.
4. Some articles of clothing may shed more lint than
others (towels for example), causing the Lint
Screen to rapidly fill. Remove lint from the lint
screen before and after drying these articles, such
as new towels.
5. In the event lint falls off of the lint screen and
into the dryer during removal, inspect the exhaust
hood and remove any lint.
6. Laundry detergent and fabric softener residue can
build up on the lint screen, causing longer drying
times. The screen is likely blocked if lint falls off
the screen. In order to prevent this type of build
up, and help ensure proper operation of your
dryer, clean the lint screen with a nylon brush
every six months or, if necessary, more
frequently. The lint filter can also be washed as
follows:
a) After rolling the lint off of the screen with your
fingers, wet both sides of the screen with hot or
warm water.
b) Wet a nylon brush with hot water and liquid
detergent and scrub the lint screen with the brush
to remove the buildup of detergent and fabric
softener.
c) Repeat as necessary.
d) After the residue has been removed, rinse screen
with hot water.
e) After drying the lint screen with a clean towel,
firmly replace the lint screen in your dryer.
WARNING!
Disconnect the dryers electric power
prior to any cleaning or maintenance.
