User-maintenance instructions Exhaust requirements and instructions: 1. Venting materials are not provided with the dryer and you should obtain the necessary venting materials. 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 or semi-rigid metal ducting is recommended for use as transition ducting between the dryer and the wall. In special installations when it is impossible to make a connection with the above recommendations, then a U.L.-listed flexible metal transition duct may be used between the dryer and wall connection only. The use of this ducting will affect dry time. 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 on page 36. Exhaust and dryer maintenance Caution! Disconnect the dryer's electric power prior to any cleaning or 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 become unsatisfactory, 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, sold separately at home improvement store, can be used to exhaust the dryer when it is placed in hard to reach location. This Kit comes in two pieces, one to attach on the dryer and the other to attach on the wall exhaust outlet. After attaching 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. 6. Ordinarily, the dryer drum will need no care. Wipe the exterior of the dryer as required, and always wipe the exterior of the dryer in the event any detergent, bleach, or other washing products is spilled on the dryer. 7. Clean the control panel with a damp cloth as necessary. Warning: spray prewash products may damage the finish of the control panel. 8. Please clean the lint filter either before drying each load or after drying each load. 9. Always make sure the lint filter is clean before starting a new load, because a clogged lint filter may increase drying times. 10. 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. Customer Care Center 41 1-800-898-1879 www.askousa.com
