DryingTips

Dryer cycles are designed to provide

proper drying for different kinds of

fabrics. This dryer has 3 cycles:

Regular Heavytumbles the load with-

out heat during the last 5 minutes of the

cycle. This helps make the load easier

to handle.

permanent Press tumbles the load

without heat during the last 10 minutes

of the cycle. This helps keep wrinkles

from setting in and makes the load

easier to handle. Clothes wrinkled from

packing in suitcases or closets can be

smoothed out by tumbling them in this

cycle for about 20 minutes.

Airtumbles the load without heat. This

cycle is useful when drying heat-

sensitive items; fluffing pillows and

bedding: dusting sheers and curtains.

Drying heat sensitive materials

with heat may damage the items

or be a FIRE HAZARD. I

IfYouNeedServiceOrAssistance

Wesuggestyoufollow

thesefiie steps:

1. Before calling for assistance...

Performance problems often result from

little things you can find and fix yourself

without tools of any kind.

If your dryer does not run:

Is the power supply plugged into a live

circuit with the proper voltage?

. Is the door closed tightly?

Did you push the Start Button?

Have you checked your home’s main

fuses or circuit breaker box?

If your dryer does not heat:

The AIR setting is without heat.

The last minutes of heat settings are

without heat.

Is the gas turned on? If not, turn the

Cycle Control Knob to OFF Turn

on gas. Wait 5 minutes. Reset the

controls and start.

An electric dryer uses a circuit breaker

or 2 fuses. If one fuse is blown, the

dryer may run, but not heat.

If drying time seems too long:

Is the lint screen clean? See page 7

for cleaning instructions.
