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

dryer, follow basic precautions, including the following:

•Read all instructions before using

the dryer.

•Do not place items exposed to cooking

oils in your dryer. Items contaminated

with cooking oils may contribute to a

chemical reaction that could cause a

load to catch fire.

•Do not dry articles 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.

•Do not allow children to play on or in

the dryer. Close supervision of children

is necessary when the dryer is used

near children.

•Before the dryer is removed from service

or discarded, remove the door to the

drying compartment.

•Do not reach into the dryer if the drum

is moving.

•Do not install or store the dryer where

it will be exposed to the weather.

•Do not tamper with controls.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

dryer or attempt any servicing unless

specifically 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 dryer and exhaust vent

should be cleaned periodically by

CHECKING YOUR VENT

If the dryer is not properly installed and vented, it will

not be covered under the warranty.

NOTE: Service calls caused by improper venting will

be paid for by the customer, whether it was a paid

installation or self-installed. For paid installation, call

the company that installed the vent for adjustment.

1. Do not use plastic vent or flexible metal foil vent.

Use 4 in (10.16 cm)

heavy metal or flexible

metal vent. Do not kink

or crush flexible metal

vent. It must be

completely extended to

allow adequate exhaust

air to flow. Check vent

after installation. Refer

to your Installation

Instructions for proper

length requirements of vent.

3. The exhaust vent can be routed up, down, left,

right, or straight out the

back of the dryer. Space

requirements are listed

in your Installation

Instructions.

2. Use a 4 in (10.16 cm) exhaust hood. Smaller

hoods increase drying

times.

wWARNING

Fire Hazard

Use a heavy metal vent.

Do not use a plastic vent.

Do not use a metal foil vent.

Failure to follow these instructions can

result in death or fire.

Your dryer must be properly installed and vented to achieve maximum drying efficiency and

shorten drying times. Use the minimum recommended installation clearances (found in your

Installation Instructions) to avoid blocking the flow of combustion and ventilation air. Install

your dryer in a well-ventilated room where the temperature is always above 45ºF (7ºC). Also

make sure that your dryer is leveled. Refer to your installation Instructions for more

information.

CHECKING YOUR VENT

6. Clean exhaust vent periodically, depending on use,

but at least every 2

years, or when installing

your dryer in a new

location.

•Disconnect vent from

the dryer and clean one

section at a time until

you reach the exhaust

hood.

•Use the hose attach-

ment on your vacuum,

or a pole or wire with a feather duster or rag

attached, to clean out lint.

•Be sure the flapper on the outside end of vent

moves freely.

•When cleaning is complete, be sure to follow the

Installation Instructions supplied with your dryer

for final product check.

4. Use the straightest path possible when routing

the exhaust vent. Use

the fewest number of

elbows and turns. Allow

room when using

elbows or making turns.

Bend vent gradually to

avoid kinking.

5. Use duct tape to seal all joints. Do not use

screws to secure vent.

Lint may catch on

screws.

4. Push the Start button.

3. Set the Temperature selector to the recom-

mended setting for the

type of fabric being

dried. The cycle de-

scriptions on the fol-

lowing pages include

temperature setting

suggestions.

USING YOUR DRYER

STARTING YOUR DRYER

NOTE: Your dryer stops automatically when a

cycle ends.

Before using your dryer, wipe the dryer drum with a

damp cloth to remove dust from storing and shipping.

1. Load clothes loosely into the dryer and close the

door. Do not pack the

dryer; allow space for

clothes to tumble freely.

2. Turn the Cycle Control knob to the recom-

mended cycle for the

type of load being dried,

as described in the

“Cycle Descriptions”

section.

wWARNING

Explosion Hazard

Keep flammable materials and vapors,

such as gasoline, away from dryer.

Do not dry anything that has ever had

anything flammable on it (even after

washing).

Failure to follow these instructions can

result in death, explosion, or fire.

wWARNING

Fire Hazard

No washer can completely remove oil.

Do not dry anything that has ever had any

type of oil on it (including cooking oils).

Items containing foam, rubber, or plastic

must be dried on a clothesline or by using an

Air Cycle.

Failure to follow these instructions can result

in death or fire.

STARTING YOUR DRYER (CONT.)

USING YOUR DRYER

Stopping and restarting your dryer

You can stop your dryer anytime during a cycle.

To stop your dryer:

Open the dryer door or 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.

To restart your dryer:

Close the door, select a new cycle and temperature

(if desired), and push the Start button.

SELECTING THE RIGHT CYCLE AND TEMPERATURE SETTING

The following pages describe the drying cycles

on your dryer. The descriptions include suggested

temperature settings and drying times for various

loads.

Cycle and temperature tips

•Make sure you have selected the correct cycle

and temperature for your load.

•Use the Fluff Air cycle, or line dry rubber, plastic,

delicate, and heat-sensitive fabrics.

•The last few minutes of all cycles are without

heat to make the load cooler to handle.

Drying tips

•Always follow care label directions when they are

available.

•Always use fabric softener sheets labeled as dryer

safe and follow package instructions carefully.

•Remove the load from the dryer as soon as

tumbling stops to reduce wrinkling. This is

especially important for permanent press, knits,

and synthetic fabrics.

USING YOUR DRYER

CYCLE DESCRIPTIONS

Timed Dry cycle

The Timed Dry cycle is a heated cycle. Use the

Timed Dry cycle for:

•Heavyweight and bulky items, such as bed-

spreads and work clothes, and large loads that

require a long drying time. Set the Temperature

selector to Heavy and the Cycle Control knob for

50-70 minutes.

•Lightweight items, such as lingerie, blouses, and

knits that require a short drying time. Set the

Temperature selector to Low, and the Cycle

Control knob for 20-30 minutes.

•The Timed Dry cycle also includes a Damp Dry

feature to dry items to a damp level or to dry

items that do not require an entire drying cycle.

Examples are heavy cottons, such as jeans,

which you do not want to become stiff, or cotton

clothes that are easier to press when damp. Set

the Temperature selector to Heavy and the Cycle

Control knob to Damp Dry.

•The Timed Dry cycle also includes the TUMBLE

PRESS feature, that 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. Set the Temper-

ature selector to Heavy, and the Cycle Control

knob to TUMBLE PRESS.

Fluff Air cycle

Use the unheated Fluff Air cycle for items that

require drying without heat, as described on the

next page.
