DRYER SAFETY

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING – To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to

persons when using the dryer, follow basic precautions, including

the following:

recommended in this Use and

Care Guide or 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 by the manufacturer

of the fabric softener or product.

•Do not use heat to dry articles

containing foam rubber or similarly

textured rubber-like materials.

•Clean lint screen before or after

each load.

•Keep area around the exhaust

opening and adjacent surrounding

areas free from the accumulation

of lint, dust, and dirt.

•The interior of the machine and

exhaust duct should be cleaned

periodically by qualified service

Operating Your Dryer

The information in this section helps you learn to use your dryer efficiently and safely. Refer

to “Laundry Tips” on page 19 for additional information on sorting, loading, and drying most

types of washables.

NOTES:

•Make sure your dryer is properly vented outdoors before using it. See warning below and

your Installation Instructions.

•Make sure your dryer is properly installed in a well-ventilated room where the temperature is

above 7°C (45°F).

•Make sure your dryer is leveled on a floor that can support the weight.

Starting your dryer

1. Load clothes into the dryer and close

the door.

wWARNING

Fire Hazard

Use a heavy metal vent.

Do not use a plastic vent.

Do not use a metal foil vent.

Failure to do so can result in death

or fire.

wWARNING

Explosion Hazard

Never place items in the dryer that are

dampened with gasoline or other

flammable fluids.

Do not wash or dry items soiled with

vegetable or cooking oils because

they may contain some oil after

laundering.

Doing so can result in death,

explosion, or fire.

2. Turn the Cycle Control Knob to the

desired cycle. Use the Energy

Preferred Automatic Setting (*)

to dry most loads (see page 8).

3. If your dryer has a Temperature Selector,

set it to the desired setting

(see page 10). Some dryer

models have either a rotary

knob or tap touch

Temperature Selector.

NOTE: Your dryer stops automatically when

a cycle ends.

4. Push the Start Button.

High

Low

Stopping/restarting your dryer

You can stop your dryer anytime during

a cycle.

To stop the dryer, either:

•Open the dryer door.

•Turn the Cycle Control Knob

to Off.

NOTE: The Cycle Control Knob should point

to an Off area when the dryer is not in use.

Selecting the right cycle and setting

The following pages describe the cycles

on your dryer. Refer to the charts on pages

10-11 for help in selecting drying cycles.

Drying guidelines

•Always follow care label directions when

they are available.

•The last few minutes of all cycles are without

heat to make the load cooler to handle.

•To help reduce wrinkling, remove the load

from the dryer as soon as tumbling stops.

This is especially important for permanent

press, knits, and synthetic fabrics.

OPERATING YOUR DRYER

Off

To restart the dryer:

1. Close the door.

2. Select a new cycle and temperature

(if desired).

3. Push the Start Button.

•Overdrying can cause shrinkage, static

cling, and damage to some fabrics.

•Refer to pages 19-22 for information about:

– sorting clothes for drying

– choosing load sizes

– drying tips

– using dryer fabric softener sheets

– saving energy

– drying special-care items.

Cycle descriptions

Automatic Cycle(s)

Dry most loads using the Energy

Preferred Automatic Setting (*). Your

Automatic cycle(s) shuts

off when the selected

dryness is reached. The

Cycle Control Knob will

not move until the load

is almost dry. After the

cool-down, the Knob auto-

matically turns to an Off

area and tumbling stops.

•If the load is drier than you like, select a

setting closer to Less Dry the next time

you dry a similar load.

•If the load is not as dry as you like, com-

plete drying using a Timed cycle. Select a

setting closer to Very Dry the next time you

dry a similar load.

Some models offer high heat and low heat

Automatic cycles (see page 10).

NOTES:

•Some Automatic cycles use an electronic

DRY-MISER* control that senses the

amount of moisture in the load.

•Other Automatic cycles use an automatic

DRY-MISER control that senses the

exhaust temperature and determines the

dryness of the load.

Timed Cycle(s)

Use a Timed cycle to complete drying if

some items are damp

after Automatic drying.

Timed drying is also

useful for:

•Delicate items and

small loads that need

a short drying time.

•Bulky items and large

loads that require a long

drying time.

Some models offer high heat and low heat

Timed cycles (see page 10).

Fluff Air Cycle

(on some models)

The Fluff Air cycle has no heat. Use this un-

heated cycle to fluff or air

dry bedding, plastic table-

cloths, foam pillows,

sneakers, etc. See page

11 for more information

about the Fluff Air cycle.

NOTE: If your model

does not have the Fluff

Air cycle, line dry heat sensitive items.

Heavy Dry Cycle

(on some models)

Use Heavy Dry and a high heat setting to

dry large items or items

that are thicker or

heavier than a regular

load (such as heavy

cotton bath towels or

robes).

Damp Dry Cycle

(on some models)

Use Damp Dry to dry items to damp level or

to dry items that do not

require an entire drying

cycle. Two examples

are heavy cottons, such

as jeans, which you do

not want to become stiff,

or cotton clothes which

are easier to press

when damp.

TUMBLE PRESS*Cycle

(on some models)

The TUMBLE PRESS cycle removes

wrinkles from clothes that

have been packed in a

suitcase or closet, or

from items not removed

from the dryer at the end

of a cycle. As soon as

the dryer stops, fold or

put the items on hangers.

Towels Feature

(on some models)

When you have large loads of towels to dry,

you may want to use the

Towels feature in the

Automatic cycle. The

Towels setting allows for

more drying time and

automatically shuts off

the dryer when the

selected dryness is

reached. The Towels

feature also can be used for extra heavy

items such as mattress pads and quilts.

FINISH GUARD*Feature

(on some models)

When you are unable to remove a load from

the dryer as soon as it

stops, wrinkles can form.

The FINISH GUARD

feature tumbles the load

without heat every few

minutes up to 45 minutes

after the cycle ends. This

tumbling rearranges and

fluffs the load to avoid

wrinkles. You do not have to set the Cycle

Control Knob for the FINISH GUARD

feature. If you do not open the dryer door

within a few minutes after the cycle stops,

the FINISH GUARD feature takes over to

protect the load.

A signal sounds every few minutes when

FINISH GUARD is running. The signal and

cycle stop when you open the dryer door.

NOTE: See page 12 if your model has a

FINISH GUARD On/Off selector.

Rack Dry Feature

(on some models)

You may want to dry some items without

tumbling (such as wool

sweaters, stuffed toys, or

pillows). Use the drying

rack (see page 13) and

the Rack Dry feature for

these items, and a low

temperature setting.

During the drying cycle,

the drum turns, but the

rack does not move. Drying time depends

on the amount of moisture in the items.

NOTES:

•Be sure to follow the instructions on page

13 for installing the drying rack in your

dryer and placing items on the rack.

•Use the chart on page 13 to determine

temperatures and drying times.

•You may use either the Timed cycle or

Fluff Air cycle for rack drying.

mended Automatic cycle is not available.

•The check mark (✓) in the chart below

denotes recommended temperature

settings. If some types of loads in the
