CHECKING YOUR VENT

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

shorten drying times. Install your dryer in a well-ventilated room where the temperature is always

above 45°F (7°C). Also make sure that your dryer is leveled. Refer to your Installation Instructions

for more information.

VENTING

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 installa-

tion, call the company that installed the vent for

adjustment.

1. Four-inch heavy metal or flexible metal vent must

be used. Do not use

plastic vent or flexible

metal foil 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.

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.

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" exhaust hood. Smaller hoods increase

drying times.

VENTING (CONT.)

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. Avoid

90° turns, if possible.

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.

CHECKING YOUR VENT

wWARNING

Explosion Hazard

Never place items in the dryer that are

dampened with gasoline or other

flammable fluids.

No washer can completely remove oil.

Do not dry anything that has ever had any

type of oil on it (including cooking oils).

Doing so can result in death, explosion,

or fire.

Before using your dryer, wipe the dryer drum with a

damp cloth to remove dust from storing and shipping.

If your dryer has a Features Guide, remove it and

place it with this Use and Care Guide.

1. Load clothes loosely into the dryer and close the

door. Do not pack the

dryer; allow space for

clothes to tumble freely.

OPERATING YOURDRYER

To get the best dryer results possible, you must use your dryer correctly. This section tells you how

to use your dryer properly and efficiently.

STARTING YOUR DRYER

4. Set the Temperature selector to the recommended

setting for the type of

fabric being dried. The

cycle descriptions on the

following pages include

temperature setting

suggestions.

5. (OPTIONAL STEP) Some dryers have an On/Off

FINISH GUARD®selector. The FINISH GUARD

feature protects your clothes from wrinkling when

you do not remove them from the dryer as soon

as it stops.

•Set the FINISH GUARD selector to On to

tumble the load without heat every few minutes

up to 45 minutes after the drying cycle ends.

•A signal will sound every few minutes while

FINISH GUARD is running if the Cycle Signal

(End of Cycle Signal) feature is set to On. On

some models, this signal is fixed and cannot be

turned off. The signal and cycle end when you

open the dryer door.

•Set the FINISH GUARD selector to Off if you do

not want to run this feature.

NOTE: Some dryers have a fixed FINISH GUARD

feature that cannot be turned off.

2. Make sure the lint collector basket lid is securely

closed, and that the lint

indicator window is not

full. (See the “Using and

maintaining the EASY

CLEAN 100™lint

feature” section.)

3. Turn the Cycle Control Knob to the recommended

cycle for the type of load

being dried, as described

in the “Cycle descrip-

tions” section.

•Use the Energy Pre-

ferred Automatic Setting

(*) to dry most loads.

STARTING YOUR DRYER (CONT.)

OPERATING 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.

•Dry most loads using the Energy Preferred

Automatic Setting (*).

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

delicate, and heat-sensitive fabrics.

•If some types of loads in the cycle descriptions

on the following pages have more than one

suggested temperature setting, choose the

lowest setting available on your dryer.

•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.

•If you use fabric softener sheets, always use

softener sheets that are 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.

•Check the EASY CLEAN 100™lint indicator win-

dow. If full, refer to the “Using and maintaining

the EASY CLEAN 100 lint feature” section.

6. (OPTIONAL STEP) Set the End of Cycle Signal

selector to On if you want your dryer to sound

a signal when a cycle is finished.

•The signal is helpful when you are drying

permanent press, synthetics, and other items

that should be removed from the dryer as

soon as it stops.

•On some models, the End of Cycle Signal is

part of the Start Button.

7. Push the Start Button.

NOTE: Your dryer stops automatically when a

cycle ends.

OPERATING YOUR DRYER

CYCLE DESCRIPTIONS

Automatic cycle(s)

Use an Automatic cycle to dry most loads.

Depending on your

model, the Automatic

cycle uses either an

electronic or automatic

DRY-MISER®control

that senses the mois-

ture in the load and

shuts off the dryer

when the selected

dryness is reached.

The Cycle Control Knob

does not move until the load is almost dry. After the

cool-down, the Knob automatically 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, complete

drying using a Timed cycle. Select a setting closer

to Very Dry the next time you dry a similar load.

Drying time with an Automatic cycle varies accord-

ing to the type of fabric, size of load, and dryness

setting. Your model may not have all heat settings

listed. Some general guidelines are:

•Use a high heat setting for drying heavyweight

items, such as towels and work clothes.

•Use a medium heat setting for drying medium-

weight items, such as sheets, underwear,

permanent press clothes, and some knits.

•Use a low heat setting for drying lightweight

items such as lingerie, blouses, dresses, and

some knits.

NOTE: If you have any questions about drying

temperatures for various loads, refer to care label

directions.

Timed cycle(s)

Use a Timed drying cycle to complete drying if some

items are damp after the

Automatic cycle. A Timed

drying cycle is also

useful for:

•Heavyweight and bulky

items, such as bed-

spreads and work

clothes, and large loads

that require a long drying

time. Set your dryer for

High heat.

•Lightweight items, such as lingerie, blouses, and

knits that require a short drying time. Set your dryer

for Low heat.

•Drying time and temperature will depend on your

dryer model.

Fluff Air cycle

Use the unheated Fluff Air cycle for items that require

drying without heat.

See the chart in the

“Fluff air cycle” section

for examples of items

that require air drying.
