TheREGULAR/PERMANENT

PRESScycle

The REGULAFVPERMANENT PRESS

Cycle

helps provide the special

care

that cottons, permanent press and

synthetic fabrics need. The cycle

consists of a timed period of heated

drying and a 10 minute cool down

period. During the cool down, the bad

tumbles without heat. This helps keep

wrinkles from setting and makes the

bad easier to handle.

NOTE: To help reduce wrinkling,

remove the bad from the dryer as

soon as tumbling stops. This is

important for permanent press, knits

and synthetic fabrics.

TheKNITS,DELICATEcycle

The KNITS, DELICATE

Cycle helps

provide the special care that delicate

fabrics need. The cycle consists of a

timed period of reduced heat drying

and

10 minute cool down period.

During the cool down, the bad tumbles

virihout heat. This helps keep wrinkles

from setting

and makes the bad easier

to handle.

NOTE: To help reduce wrinkling,

remove the bad from the dryer as

soon as tumbling stops. This is

important for permanent press, knits

and synthetic fabrics.

UsingTUMBLEPRESS”

The TUMBLE PRESS

setting removes

wrinkles from clothing that has been

packed in a suitcase or closet, and

from items not removed from the dryer

al the end of a cycle.

Set the Cycle Control Knob on

TUMBLE PRESS.

2. Push the Start Button.

The bad will tumble in heated air for

10 minutes. Then the dryer will tumble

the clothes for 10 more minutes

without heat.

For best results, put only a few

ifems at a time in this cycle. As soon

as the dryer stops, put the items on

hangers or fold them.

UsingDAMPDRY

Use this setting to dry damp items that

do not require an entire drying cycle,

or to dry items to damp level. (Two

examples are heavy cottons, such as

ieans, which you do not want to

become stiff, or cctton clothes which

are easier to press when damp.)

Set the Cycle Control Knob on

DAMP DRY.

2. Push the Start Button.

The dryer tumbles the load with heat

for 20 minutes, then without heat for

10 minutes.

End-of-cyclesignal

The dryer sounds a signal to let you

know when the cycle is finished. The

signal cannot be turned off and is not

adjustable.

The signal is helpful when you are

drying permanent press, synthetic and

other items that should be taken out as

soon as the dryer stops.

CaringForYourDryer

Do not run the dryer wlth the lint ecreen loose,

damaged, blocked or mleslng. Dolng so can

cause overheatlng and damage to both the

dryer and fabrics.

Cleaningthe lint screen

The lint screen is located under a lid

top

of the dryer.

Clean It before

each load.

A screen blocked by lint

can increase drying time.

Open the lid and pull the lint screen

straight out.

2. Roll lint off the screen with your

fingers. Do not rinse or wash the

screen to remove lint. Wet lint is

hard to remove.

3. Push the lint screen firmly back into

place and close the lid.

Lirit ScreenMaintenance

Laundry detergents and fabric

softeners can cause a residue build-up

on the lint screen. A clogged lint

screen can extend drying times. Clean

the lint screen every six months or

more frequently if it becomes clogged

due to a residue build-up. Use the

following method:

1. Wet both sides of lint screen with

hot water.

2. Wet a nylon brush with hot water

and liquid detergent.

3. Scrub lint screen with the brush

until all residue build-up is re-

moved.

4. Rinse with hot water.

5. Thoroughly

dry lint screen with a

clean towel and replace in dryer.
