• Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static unless the softener or
product is recommended for dryer use by the manufacturer of the fabric softener or
product.
• Clean the lint screen before or after each load.
• Keep the area around the exhaust opening and surrounding areas free from lint, dust,
and dirt.
• The interior of the dryer and exhaust duct should be cleaned periodically by qualied
service personnel.
• This appliance must be properly grounded. Never plug the power cord into a receptacle
that is not grounded adequately or not in accordance with local and national codes. See
the installation instructions for information about grounding this appliance.
• Do not sit on top of the dryer.
• Do not dry clothing with large buckles, buttons, or other heavy metal or solid objects.
• Gas leaks may not be detected by smell alone.
• Gas suppliers recommend you purchase and install a UL-approved gas detector.
• Install and use in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
• Do not place items in your dryer that have been spotted or soaked with vegetable oil
or cooking oil. Even after being washed, these items may contain signicant amounts
of these oils.
• Residual oil on clothing can ignite spontaneoulsy. The potential for spontaneous
combustion increases when items containing vegetable oil or cooking oil are exposed
to heat. Heat sources such as your dryer can warm these items, allowing an oxidation
reaction in the oil to occur. Oxidation creates heat. If this heat cannot escape, the items
can become hot enough to catch re. Piling, stacking, or storing these kinds of items
may prevent heat from escaping and can create a re hazard.
• All washed and unwashed fabrics that contain vegetable oil or cooking oil can be
dangerous.
Washing these items in hot water with extra detergent will reduce, but not eliminate,
the hazard. Always use the Cool Down cycle for these items to reduce their
temperature. Never remove these items from the dryer hot or interrupt the drying
cycle until the items have run through the Cool Down cycle. Never pile or stack these
items when they are hot.

STEP 6 Power on (Gas models)
Make sure all gas connections, the exhaust line, and all wiring is connected correctly. Then,
plug the power cord into a power source and check the dryer’s installation and operation
using the nal checklist in Step 7 below.
STEP 7 Final check
When installation is complete, conrm that:
• The dryer is plugged into an electrical outlet and grounded properly.
• The exhaust ductwork is connected and the joints are taped.
• You have used rigid or stiff-walled exible metal duct material, not plastic exible duct.
• The dryer is level and is sitting rmly on the oor.
• The dryer starts, runs, heats, and shuts off properly.
For gas models:
• Gas is supplied properly with no leaks.
CAUTION
The burner may not ignite initially due to air in the gas line. Allowing your dryer to
operate on a heat setting will purge the line. If the gas does not ignite within 5 minutes,
turn your dryer off and wait 5 minutes. Be sure the gas supply to your dryer has been
turned on. To conrm gas ignition, check the exhaust for heat.

Vent blockage test
After the dryer is installed, start the Vent Blockage Test to check if the duct system is
properly installed. The Vent Blockage Test automatically detects the status of the ducts
and reports any blockage or problems. Proper ducting can reduce drying time and save
energy.
NOTE
The Vent Blockage Test must run with the dryer in a cool state. If the dryer warms up
after the installation check, run the AIR FLUFF cycle for several minutes to reduce its
internal temperature.
Running the vent blockage test
1. Make sure the drum is empty, and then close the door.
(If there are any clothes or other items in the drum, the test will not give accurate
results.)
2. Press POWER to turn the dryer on, then simultaneously press and hold the Adjust
Time
and Dry level buttons for 3 seconds. “InS” appears in the dryer’s display. (If
you have started other procedures before the Vent Blockage Test, the dryer will not
enter the Vent Blockage Test mode.)
3. Press START/PAUSE. The Vent Blockage Test starts immediately. During the test, the
number indicator makes a circle in 6 clockwise steps. The test takes about 2 minutes.
Do not open the door during the test.
4. After 2 minutes, when the test is complete, the results is displayed and the dryer
sounds a tone.
If status of the duct system is normal, “0” appears and the dryer sounds a completion
tone.
If the duct system can not exhaust properly, “CLg” appears and the dryer sounds an
alarm tone.
If there are any other problems, an information code appears in the display. For
information about the code, see Information codes section on page 60.
• To stop or cancel the Vent Blockage Test, press POWER to turn off your dryer.
• During the test, if “dc” appears in the display, make sure the door is closed. If
“C1” is displayed, see if there is laundry inside drum. If there is, stop the test and
remove it. Then, start the test again.
• The results remain on the display for about 5 minutes and then automatically turn
off. You can turn the result off immediately by pressing POWER.

English 31
NOTE
• During or after the test, the internal drum is hot. Use caution to prevent burns.
The Vent Blockage Test is used to check for problems to the current duct system when
the dryer is installed for the rst time.
• If the test result displays “CLg” (the duct system is blocked ), refer to the Ducting
requirements section on page 18 and the Exhaust ducting guide section below, and
then take proper measures to correct any problems.
If the test is suspended, it could result in incorrect results. Follow the proper
procedures when testing the dryer.
• Even if the test result is normal (“0”), the duct system could be blocked slightly.
Properly install all duct work according to the installation instructions in this manual.
Exhaust ducting guide
Ducting
1. Make sure the dryer is installed properly so the air exhausts freely.
2. Use 4-inch rigid metal ducts. Tape all joints including the dryer connection.
Never use lint-trapping screws.
3. To facilitate the exhaust, keep the ducts as straight as possible.
Cleaning
Clean all old ducts before installing the dryer, and make sure the vent ap opens and
closes freely. We recommend that you clean the exhaust system annually or on a regular
basis.
WARNING
• To prevent re, do not use plastic, thin-foil, or non-metal exible ducts of any kind.
• Do not use a poor exhaust system because it slows down the dryer’s performance.
• Do not use excessively long ducts that have multiple elbows.
• Do not use crushed or clogged venting or ducts.

Vent sensor
The dryer features a vent sensor that detects and noties you when it is time to clean the
ductwork. The
indicator lets you know the status of the duct.
Level
Indicator
Status Action
0 Off The ductwork is not clogged. -
1 On
• The duct or lint lter is
clogged.
• High pressure being
applied to the duct
because the duct is too
long or bent.
• Check the lint lter or duct
and clean if necessary.
• Check the duct connections
and shorten or straighten
the duct if necessary.
2 Blinking
• The duct or lint lter is
severely clogged.
• The pressure applied
to the duct is very high
because the duct is too
long or bent.
• Check and clean the lint
lter or duct and make
sure they are not clogged.
• Check the duct connections
and shorten or straighten
the duct work.
If the dryer is in the Level 2 state, the
indicator blinks for 3 hours after the completion
of the current cycle. If you press POWER or open the door, the dryer powers off
immediately.
NOTE
• For duct installation, see Exhaust ducting guide on page 31 and Ducting requirements
on page 18.
• The dryer may keep running even if the duct is clogged, but the drying time will be
extended.
• If the indicator turns on for the rst time and is solid (not blinking), check and clean the
lint lter and/or duct.
• If the indicator turns on again later, it is because the duct is installed or connected with
some restrictions (it’s too long or has too many bends). This is not a system failure.
However, drying time may be extended or the drying performance may be degraded.

Checkpoints
If the dryer operates abnormally, rst check the list of problems in the table below and
try the suggested actions.
Symptom Action
Does not run.
• Make sure the door is latched shut.
• Make sure the power cord is plugged into a live electrical
outlet.
• Check your home’s circuit breakers or fuses.
• Press START/PAUSE again if the door was opened during a
cycle.
• Clean the lint lter.
• If you are using the Delicate Dryer but it does not operate
properly, you can turn the Tumble Dryer on and see if an
information code appears.
Does not heat.
• Check your home’s circuit breakers or fuses.
• Some cycles do not require heat. Check the selected cycle
again.
• For a gas dryer, make sure the gas supply is on.
• Clean the lint lter and exhaust duct.
• The dryer may have moved into the cool-down phase of the
cycle.
Does not dry.
• Check all of the above, plus...
• Make sure the exhaust hood outside your home can open and
close freely.
• Check the exhaust system for lint buildup. Ducting should be
inspected and cleaned annually.
• Use a 4” rigid metal exhaust duct.
• Do not overload. 1 wash load = 1 dryer load.
• Dry heavy items and light weight items separately.
• Large, bulky items, such as blankets or comforters, may
require repositioning to ensure even drying.
• The load may be too small to tumble properly. Add a few
towels and restart the dryer.
• The load may be too large to tumble properly. Remove some
items and restart the dryer.
• Clean the lint lter.

Troubleshooting
English 57
Symptom Action
Is noisy.
• Check the load for objects such as coins, loose buttons, nails,
etc. Remove promptly.
• It is normal to hear the dryer gas valve or heating element
cycle on and off during the drying cycle.
• Make sure the dryer is leveled properly as outlined in the
installation instructions.
• It is normal for the dryer to hum due to the high velocity of
air moving through the dryer drum, fan, or exhaust system.
Dries unevenly.
• Seams, pockets, and other similarly heavy areas may not
be completely dry when the rest of the load has reached
the selected dryness level. This is normal. You can choose
a higher dryness level or a cycle that involves a higher
dryness level.
• If one heavy item is dried with a light weight load, such as
one towel with sheets, it is possible that the heavy item will
not be completely dry when the rest of the load has reached
the selected dryness level.
• For the best drying results, dry heavy items and light weight
items separately.
Has odors.
• Household odors from paint, varnish, strong cleaners, etc.
may enter the dryer with the surrounding room air. This is
normal as the dryer draws the air from the room, heats it,
pulls it through the drum, and exhausts it outside.
• When these odors linger in the air, completely ventilate the
room before using the dryer.
Lint on clothes.
• Make sure the lint lter is cleaned before every load. For
clothes that naturally build up lint, clean the lter during the
cycle.
• Some fabrics are lint producers (for example, a fuzzy white
cotton towel) and they must be dried separately from clothes
that are lint trappers (for example, a pair of black linen
pants).
• Divide larger loads into smaller loads for drying.
• Check pockets thoroughly before drying, then dry clothes.
• Remove lint inside the drum before drying a load.
