WHAT YOU NEED TOKNOW ABOUT

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

CAUTION – Hazards or unsafe practices which COULD result in minor

personal injury.

CAUTION

WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or injury to persons when using the

appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following:

1. Read all instructions before using the appliance.

2. To avoid the possibility of fire or explosion:

• Do not dry items that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents,

other flammable or explosive substances as they give off vapors that could ignite or explode. Any material on which you have

used a cleaning solvent, or which is saturated with flammable liquids or solids, should not be placed in the dryer until all

traces of these flammable liquids or solids and their fumes have been removed.There are many highly flammable items used in

homes, such as: acetone, denatured alcohol,gasoline,kerosene, some liquid household cleaners, some spot removers,turpentine,

waxes and wax removers.

•Items containing foam rubber (may be labeled latex foam) or similarly textured rubber-like materials must not be dried on

a heat setting. Foam rubber materials, when heated, can under certain circumstances produce fire by spontaneous combustion.

3. Do not allow children to play on or in the appliance. Close supervision of children is necessary when the appliance is used near

children.

4. Before the appliance is removed from service or discarded, remove the door to the drying compartment.

5. Do not reach into the appliance if the drum is moving.

Do not install or store this appliance where it will be exposed to the weather.

Do not tamper with controls.

Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance or attempt any servicing unless specifically recommended in published user-repair

instructions that you understand and have the skills to carry out.

Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static unless 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 accumulation, dust and dirt.

The interior of the dryer and exhaust duct should be cleaned periodically by qualified service personnel.

This appliance must be properly grounded. Never plug the appliance cord into a receptacle which is not grounded adequately and in

accordance with local and national codes. See installation instructions for grounding this appliance.

Do not sit on top of the dryer.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Note: Because of continuing product improvements, Maytag reserves

the right to change specifications without notice. For complete details,

see the Installation Instructions packed with your product before

selecting cabinetry, making cutouts or beginning installation.

WARNING – Gas leaks may occur in your system and result in

a dangerous situation. Gas leaks may not be detected by smell

alone. Gas suppliers recommend you purchase and install an UL

approved gas detector. Install and use in accordance with the

manufacturer's instructions.

WARNING

WARNING – Do not place into your dryer items that have been spotted or soaked with vegetable oil or cooking oil. Even after being

washed, these items may contain significant amounts of these oils. The remaining oil can ignite spontaneously. The potential for spontaneous

ignition increases when the 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 fire. Piling, stacking or storing these kinds of items may prevent heat from escaping and can create a fire 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 will not eliminate, the hazard. Always use the “cool down” cycle for these items to reduce the items’

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.

WARNING

DDRYER EXHAUST TIPS

Let your dryer exhaust

the air easily.

Read the installation instructions

and the user guide.

Use 4 inch

diameter rigid

metal duct.Tape all joints,

including at the dryer. Never use

lint-trapping screws.

Keep duct runs as straight as possible.

Clean all old ducts

beforeinstalling your new dryer. Be sure

vent flap opens and closes freely. Inspect

and clean the exhaust system annually.

DON’T

Restrict your dryer with a

poor exhaust system.

Let a poor exhaust system

cause slow drying.

Use plastic, thin foil, or non-metal

flexible duct.

Use longer than necessary duct

runs with many elbows.

Allow crushed or clogged ducts

and vent.

WARNING – Plastic or nonmetal flexible duct presents a potential fire hazard.

WARNING

CLEAN THE LINT FILTER

OOPERATING TIPS

• After each load.

• To shorten drying time.

• To operate more energy efficiently.

LOAD THE DRYER PROPERLY

• By placing only one wash load in the dryer at a time.

• Avoid very small loads or mixing heavyweight and lightweight clothes.

• When only one or two articles need drying, add a few similar items

to improve tumbling and drying efficiency.

• When drying large, bulky items such as a blanket or comforter, it may

be necessary to reposition the load during the cycle to ensure even

drying.

ADD A FABRIC SOFTENER SHEET (IFDESIRED)

• After loading the dryer.

• To control static cling.

• Before the load becomes warm. This helps prevent greasy-looking

softener stains.

• And remove any used softener sheets from the dryer to prevent

greasy-looking softener stains.

CCONTROLS ATAGLANCE

Sensor Dry – automatically senses the moisture in the load

and shuts the dryer off when the selected dryness level (very

dry to damp dry) is reached.This cycle is recommended for the

majority of loads including delicates, wrinkle free and

cotton/sturdy items like towels, bedding and jeans.

Time Dry – may be selected for any load if sensor dry is not

used. Press the “+” or “–” time pad to select the desired number

of minutes.

Dry Temp – there are four temperature settings. Press the

up “ ” or down “ ” pads to select regular, medium, delicate

or extra low temperatures.

Regular– for sturdy cottons or those labeled “Tumble

Dry.”

Medium – for permanent press, synthetics, lightweight cot-

tons or items labeled “Tumble Dry Medium.”

Delicate – for heat sensitive items labeled “Tumble Dry

Low” or “Tumble Dry Warm.”

Extra Low– provides the lowest heated dry temperature

possible. Extra low temperature is lower than delicate.

Setting the Signal – the end of cycle signal is adjustable.

Press the “+” or “–” signal pad to increase or decrease the

volume of the signal.

Select Dryness Level – press the “ ” or “ ” arrow pads

to select the desired dryness level.The dryness level can be set

on or between a setting.

Very Dry – used to completely dry sturdy or bulky items

including towels and jeans.

Normal – used for drying the majority of loads.

Damp Dry – designed to partially dry items. Used for items

that lay flat or hang to dry.

Step 2

Step 4

Step 3



Step 5

Start/ Pause – close the door and press the start/pausepad to

start the dryer. Pressing off cancels the cycle and stops the dryer.

ESTIMATED TIME DISPLAY

• After pressing start/pause, the display will show the estimated

time remaining in the cycle.

SPECIAL CYCLES

Wrinkle Release – will release wrinkles from items that are clean

and dry but slightly wrinkled, such as from a crowded closet or

suitcase or from sitting in the dryer too long after the end of the

cycle.It provides 10 minutes of heated tumbling and 8 minutes of

cool down tumbling without heat.

Wrinkle Prevent – provides approximately 95 minutes of

intermittent tumbling in unheated air at the end of the cycle to

reduce wrinkling.

Air Fluff–provides 20 minutes of tumbling in unheated air. Used

for freshening items.

INDICATOR LIGHTS

• The indicator lights above the dryness levels will light when the

pad is selected.

• The cool down indicator light will illuminate when the dryer

moves into the cool down portion of the cycle.

•If the wrinkle prevent option has been selected, the wrinkle

prevent light will illuminate to indicate that the load is dry and the

dryer has moved into the wrinkle prevent portion of the cycle

(see below).

WRINKLE PREVENT OPTION

SSPECIAL LAUNDRY TIPS

• Follow the care label instructions or dry on the sensor dry cycle and

regular temperature.

• Be sure the item is thoroughly dry before using or storing.

• May require repositioning to ensure even drying.

• Use sensor dry and dry only one blanket at a time for best tumbling action.

• Be sure the item is thoroughly dry before using or storing.

• Use the sensor dry cycle and extra low temperature to help minimize

wrinkling.

• Dry these in small loads for best results and remove as soon as possible.

•Use sensor dry and the regulartemperature setting for soft, fluffy

diapers.

• Use sensor dry and the extra low temperature setting.

• Place a clean pair of sneakers in the dryer with the item to fluff the down

comforters, etc. Adding a couple of dry towels shortens dry time and

absorbs moisture.

•Do not dry on a heat setting. Use the air fluffspecial cycle (no heat).

• WARNING – Drying a rubber item with heat may damage it or be a fire

hazard.

abrasive substances. Do not spray cleaners directly on the panel.

Tumbler – remove any stains such as crayon, ink pen or fabric

dye (from new items such as towels or jeans) with an all-purpose

cleaner. Then tumble old towels or rags to remove any excess

stain or cleaning substance. Once these steps are done, stains

may still be visible, but should not transfer to subsequent loads.

Cabinet – wipe off any marks with soap and water.

Dryer Exhaust System – should be inspected and cleaned

once a year to maintain optimum performance. The outside

exhaust hood should be cleaned more frequently to ensure

proper operation. (Refer to the Installation Instructions for more

information.)

tumbler.

4) Rotate bulb counterclockwise to remove from socket.

5) Replace the bulb with a 120 volt, 10 watt maximum

candelabra base light bulb.

6) Turn the light bulb clockwise into socket.

7) Replace lens cover by hooking plastic tabs into tumbler front

below the light housing.

8) Reinstall the screw into the lens cover screw hole.

9) Reconnect dryer to power supply.

Instructions for reversing the dryer door:

BBEFORE YOU CALL

CHECK THESE POINTS IF YOUR MAY TAG NEPTUNE®DRYER...

•Be sure the door is latched shut.

• Be sure the power cord is plugged into a live electrical outlet.

• Check the home’s circuit breaker and fuses.

• Press the start/pause pad again if the door is opened during the cycle.

• Check the home’s circuit breaker and fuses.

• Select a heat setting, not air fluff.

• On a gas dryer, check that the gas supply is on.

• Clean the lint filter and exhaust duct.

• Dryer may have moved into the cool-down portion of the cycle.

• Check all of the above, plus...

• Be sure the exhaust hood at the outside of the home can open and close freely.

• Check exhaust system for lint build-up. Ducting should be inspected and cleaned annually.

• Use 4” rigid metal exhaust duct.

•Do not overload. 1 Wash load = 1 Dryer load.

• Sort heavy items from lightweight items.

• Large, bulky items like blankets or comforters may require repositioning to ensure even drying.

• Check that the washer is draining properly to extract adequate water from the load.

• Clothes load too small to tumble properly. Add a few towels.

• 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.

• Be sure the dryer is leveled properly as outlined in the installation manual.

• Be sure the rubber feet are installed on the leveling legs.

•It is normal for the dryer to hum due to the high velocity of air moving through the dryer drum

and exhaust system.

• Seams, pockets and other similar heavy areas may not be completely dry when the rest of the

load has reached the selected dryness level. This is normal. Select the very dry setting if desired.

•If one heavy item is dried with a lightweight 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. Sort heavy items from lightweight items for best drying results.

• Household odors such as from painting, varnishing, 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 tumbler and exhausts it to the outside. When these odors are present in the air,

ventilate the room completely before using the dryer.

• The dryer has experienced a power failure. Press off, then restart the cycle.
