in a well-ventilated

room where the temperature is always above 45°F. Also make sure that your dryer is leveled. Refer to your Installation Instructions for more information. 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 desth or fire. 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 inch 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. 2. Use a 4 inch exhaust hood. Smaller hoods increase drying times. 3.The exhaust vent can be routed up, down, left, right, or straight out the back of the dryer. Space re_luirements are listed in your Installation Instructions. 6

4. Use the straightest

path possible when routing the exhaust vent. Use the fewest number of elbows and turns. Allow better 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. 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.

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. 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. 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. • Use the Energy Preferred Automatic Setting (*) to dry most loads. NOTE: On some models, the Tempera- ture selector is part of the Cycle Control knob. 3. If your dryer has a Temperature selector, set it to the recommended setting for the type of fabric being dried. The cycle descriptions on the following pages include temperature setting suggestions. 8

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

FINISH GUARD ®selector or an Off/30 min. or 90 min. FINISH GUARD ®Plus selector. These features protect 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. • The FINISH GUARD Plus selector lets you choose up to 30 or 90 minutes of periodic unheated tumble time after the drying cycle ends. • A signal will sound every few minutes while FINISH GUARD (FINISH GUARD Plus) is running if the Cycle Signal (End of Cycle Signal) feature is set to On. The signal and cycle end when you open the dryer door. • Set the FINISH GUARD (FINISH GUARD Plus) selector to Off if you do not want to run this feature. NOTE: Some dryers have a FINISH GUARD feature that cannot be turned On or Off. See page 13. 5. (OPTIONAL STEP) if your dryer has a Cycle Signal (End of Cycle Signal) selector, set the selector to On if you want the 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 (Push to Start) button. • On some models, the signal volume can be adjusted from Softer to Louder. 6. Push the Start (Push to Start) button. NOTE: Your dryer stops automatically when a cycle ends.

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 tempera- ture (if desired), and push the Start (Push to Start) button. LOADING Loadin_ suggestions The chart below provides some guidelines on various types of drying loads. Load clothes loosely into the dryer. Do not pack the dryer; allow space for clothes to tumble freely. Heavy Work Clothes 3 pair pants 3 shirts 4 pair jeans 1 coverall 1 overall Delicates 3 camisoles 1 quilted robe 4 slips 4 panties 2 bras 2 nighties 1 baby's dress Towels 10 bath towels 10 hand towels 14 wash cloths 1 bath mat Mixed Load 3 double sheets 4 pillowcases 8 T-shirts 6 pair shorts 2 shirts 2 blouses 8 handkerchiefs SELECI1NG ACYCLE ANDI MPERATURE SETTING The following pages describe the drying cycles on your dryer. The descriptions include suggested temperature settings and drying times for various loads. Cycleandtemperature tips • Make sure you have selected the correct cycle and temperature for your load. • Dry most loads using the Energy Preferred Automatic Setting (*). • Use an air cycle (or temperature setting), 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. _yin_t_s • Always follow care label directions when they are available. • If you use fabric softener sheets, always use soft- ener sheets that are labeled as dryer safe and fol- low 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. 10

Use an Automatic cycle to dry most loads.

Depending on your model, the Automatic cycle uses either the electronic ACCUDRY TM system or the automatic DRY-MISER ® control that senses the moisture 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 clos- er 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. T'nned 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. NOTE: Drying time and temperature will depend on your dryer model. FluffAircycle (onsomemodels) Use the unheated Fluff Air cycle for items that require drying without heat. The chart on page 13 includes examples of items that require air drying. NOTE: If your model does not have the Fluff Air cycle, use the Timed Drying cycle and the "Air Only" Temperature setting, or line dry heat-sensitive items. HeavyDryfeature (onsomemodels) Use the Heavy Dry feature to dry large items or items that are thicker or heavier than a regular load (such as heavy cotton bath towels or robes.) Set your Cycle Control knob to Heavy Dry and your Temperature selector to High heat. 11

Use the Damp Dry feature in the Timed cycle 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. Bet the Temperature selector to High heat. ToweLsfeature (onsouemodets) 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. Bet the Temperature selector to High heat. Delicatesfeature (onsouemodets) When you have small loads or loads of lightweight items to dry, you may want to use the Delicates feature in the Automatic cycle. The Delicates setting allows ,,,_,. less drying time and automatically shuts off the dryer when the selected dryness is reached. Set the Temperature selector to Ex-Low heat. 11JMBLE PRESS _feature (onsmemodels) The TUMBLE PRESS feature in the Timed 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. Set the Temper- ature selector to Medium or Low heat. 12

When you are unable to remove a load from the

dryer as soon as it stops, wrinkles can form. The FINISH GUARD features periodically tumble, rearrange, and fluff the load to avoid wrinkles. • On some models, this feature is part of the Cycle Control knob. If you do not open the dryer door within a few minutes after the cycle stops, the FINISH GUARD features automatically take over to protect the load. • On some models, you can turn the FINISH GUARD feature On or Off with a selector. (See Step 4 in "Starting Your Dryer.") • On models with the FINISH GUARD Plus feature, you can select up to 30 or 90 minutes of periodic unheated tumble time after the drying cycle ends. • A signal will sound every few minutes while FINISH GUARD (FINISH GUARD Plus) 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. RackDryfeature (onsomemodels) Use the Rack Dry feature to dry items without R,,_ tumbling them. See "Using The Drying Rack" on page 14. FLUFF AIRCYCLE The chart below includes examples of items that • Line dry bonded or laminated fabrics. require drying without heat. Use the Fluff Air cycle • Always follow care label directions when they are (or the Timed Drying cycle and the "Air Only" available. Temperature setting), or place the items on a line or rack to air dry. TYPE OF LOAD FLUFF AIR CYCLE* (minutes) 20-30 Rubber, plastic, heat-sensitive fabrics Foam Rubber- Pillows, padded bras, stuffed toys • Make sure coverings are securely stitched, • Shake and fluff pillows by hand several times during the Fluff Air cycle. • Make sure pillows are completely dry. Foam rubber pillows take a long time to dry. Plastic - Shower curtains, tablecloths Rubber - backed rugs Olefin, Polyprepylene, Sheer nylon 20-30 40-50 10-20 * Reset cycle as needed to complete drying. On models without the Fluff Air cycle, set the Temperature selector to Air Only and the Cycle Control knob to the desired 33med Drying cycle setting. 13

To order a drying rack, call 1-800-253-1301,

from anywhere in the U.S.A. You will hear a recording. Follow the instructions to place an order. The drying rack lets you dry items without tumbling them. The rack does not move, but the drum turns. 1. Fit rear pegs of the rack into spaces in the back wall of the dryer. Lower the front so the legs rest on the dryer opening. 2. Put wet items on top of the rack. Leave space between the items so air can reach all surfaces. • See chart below for suggested cycles and settings for items that might best be rack dried. Drying time will depend on amount of moisture items hold. NOTE: Make sure nothing hangs over the edge of the rack. 3. Close the door. 4. Select the Timed Drying cycle and temperature, or the Fluff Air cycle. 5. Push the Start button. NOTE: The rack must be removed for normal tum- bling. Automatic cycles do not work with the drying rack. RACK DRY CYCLE TEMPERATURE TIME* (minutes) Wool sweaters Timed drying Low 60 (Block to shape and lay fiat on the rack) Stuffed toys or pillows Timed drying Low 60 (Cotton or polyester fiber filled) Stuffed toys or pillows FluffAir None; cycle is unheated. 90 (Foam rubber filled) Sneakers or canvas shoes Fluff Air None; cycle is unheated. 30-40 *Reset cycle as needed to complete drying. 14

The lint screen is located under a lid on top of the

dryer. Clean it before starting each load. A screen blocked by lint can increase drying time. To clean: 1. Open the lid and pull the lint screen towards you. 2. Roll lint off the screen with your fingers. Do not rinse or wash screen to remove lint. Wet lint is hard to remove. Asneeded cleaning' Laundry detergents and fabric softeners can cause a residue buildup on the lint screen. This buildup can cause longer drying times for your clothes, or cause the dryer to stop before your load is com- pletely dry. You may be able to see this buildup, or the lint may be falling off the screen because it is clogged. Clean the lint screen with a nylon brush every six months or more frequently if it becomes clogged due to a residue buildup. 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; scrub lint screen with the brush to remove residue buildup. 3. Push the lint screen firmly back into place and close the lid. IMPORTANT: a Do not run the dryer with the lint screen loose, damaged, blocked, or missing. Doing so can cause overheating and damage to both the dryer and fabrics. a Some towels made of synthetic fibers and natu- ral fibers (polyester and cotton blends) may shed more lint than other towels, causing your dryer's lint screen to fill up faster. Be sure to remove lint from the lint screen before and after drying new towels. a If lint falls off the screen during removal and into the dryer, check the exhaust hood and remove the lint (see "Checking Your Vent"). 3. Rinse screen with hot water. 4. Thoroughly dry lint screen with a clean towel; replace in dryer. 15

Garments which contain unstable dyes, such as

denim blue jeans or bdghtly colored cotton items, may discolor the dryer intedor. These stains are not harmful to your dryer and will not stain future loads of clothes. It is helpful to dry unstable dye items inside out to prevent dye transfer. To clean dryer drum: 1. Make a paste with powdered laundry detergent and very warm water. 2. Apply paste to a soft cloth. OR Apply a liquid, non-flammable household cleaner to the stained area and rub with a soft cloth until all excess dye is removed. 3. Wipe drum thoroughly with a damp cloth. 4. Tumble a load of clean cloths or towels to dry drum. Explosion Hazard Use nonflammable cleaner. Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire. REMOVING ACCUMULA_D LINTFROMINSIDE THEDRYER CABINET Lint can gather inside the dryer and be a fuel for fire. Lint should be removed every 2 years, or more often, depending on dryer usage. Cleaning should be done by a qualified person. 16

The dryer light automatically

turns on inside the dryer drum when you open the door. Your dryer's drum light may be one of two types, as shown. Fire Hazard Replace light bulb cover before operating dryer. Failure to do so can result in death or fire. Tochan_e drumlishttype,: 1, Unplug the dryer or disconnect the electricity leading to the dryer at the main power supply. 2, Open the dryer door.
