This manual covers several different models. Your dryer may not

have all of the cycles and features described.

The following is a guide to starting your dryer. Please refer to

specific sections of this manual for more detailed information.

1. Clean lint screen before each load. See "Cleaning the Lint

Screen."

2. Place laundry in dryer and shut door.

3. Press the POWER button then rotate the dial to select either

an Automatic or Manual Cycle. The preset settings and drying

time for the cycle chosen will be displayed.

NOTE: A default time is displayed when an Automatic Cycle

is selected. During the first few minutes of the drying process,

the cycle time may automatically vary from the default time

based on the size and fabric type of the load. Toward the end

of the drying process, the estimated time display will adjust

again, showing the final drying time.

To use an Automatic Cycle

NOTE: A light next to each feature will glow green when the

selectable. The light will not glow when the selection is

unavailable with the cycle or option combinations selected.

• Press the POWER button.

• Rotate the dial to select an Automatic Cycle.

• Select DRYNESS LEVEL to adjust how dry you want the

load to be. As the cycle runs, the control senses the

dryness of the load and adjusts the time automatically for

the selected Dryness Level.

NOTE: Most loads may be dried using Normal, which is

shown in boldface type on your control panel. Normal is the

energy preferred dryness level and will use the least energy.

How Automatic Cycles Work

The AccelerCare TM function improves drying performance

with Auto Moisture Sensing Plus, which advances the cycle

as moisture is extracted from clothing. A thermistor

(electronic temperature sensor) and moisture sensing strips in

the dryer drum help measure the amount of moisture in the

clothes as they tumble. An electronic control determines the

load type to help save time, avoid overdrying, and increase

the accuracy of the end dryness level. After the first 5 minutes

of an automatic cycle, the estimated time display will adjust

based on the approximate load size, cycle, dryness level

selected and amount of moisture left in the clothes. When the

clothes have reached approximately 80% of the dryness level

selected, the estimated time display will adjust again,

showing the final drying time. The AccelerCare TM feature

takes the guesswork out of drying time and enhances fabric

care.

To use a Manual Cycle

the dryness level of your load. If a Manual Cycle is running, the

display shows the exact number of minutes remaining in the

cycle.

Cool Down tumbles the load without heat during the last few

minutes of all cycles. Cool Down makes the loads easier to

handle and reduces wrinkling. The length of the Cool Down

depends on the load size and dryness level.

Drying tips

• Follow care label directions when they are available.

• If desired, add a fabric softener sheet. Follow package

instructions.

• 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.

• Avoid drying heavy work clothes with lighter fabrics. This

could cause overdrying of lighter fabrics, leading to increased

shrinking or wrinkling.

• If you dry sheets in a mixed load or large items in the Bulky

Items cycle, rearrange the load when the signal sounds. This

will aid in the drying process.

Cycle tips

• Dry most loads using the preset cycle settings.

• Refer to the Automatic or Manual Preset Cycle Settings chart

(in the "Cycles" section) for a guide to drying various loads.

Drying temperature and Dryness Level are preset when

you choose an Automatic Cycle. You can choose a

different dryness level, depending on your load by

pressing the DRYNESS LEVEL button to select MORE,

NORMAL or LESS.

L,_Jan_ _,_ br __,__L_:_,_

Keep dryer area clear and free from items that would obstruct the

flow of combustion and ventilation air.

Explosion Hazard

Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as

gasoline, away from dryer.

Place dryer at least 18 inches (46 crn) above the floor

for a garage installation.

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.

Every load cleaning

The lint screen is located in the door opening of the dryer. The

control panel has an indicator light to remind you to clean the lint

screen before each load. A screen blocked by lint can increase

drying time.

To clean

1. Pull the lint screen straight up. Roll lint off the screen with

your fingers. Do not rinse or wash screen to remove lint. Wet

lint is hard to remove.

2. Push the lint screen firmly back into place.

IMPORTANT:

• 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.

• If lint falls off the screen into the dryer during removal, check

the exhaust hood and remove the lint. See "Venting

Requirements."

As needed cleaning

Laundry detergent and fabric softener residue can build up on the

lint screen. This buildup can cause longer drying times for your

clothes, or cause the dryer to stop before your load is completely

dry. The screen is probably clogged if lint falls off while the screen

is in the dryer.

Clean the lint screen with a nylon brush every 6 months, or more

frequently, if it becomes clogged due to a residue buildup.

To wash

1. Roll lint off the screen with your fingers.

2. Wet both sides of lint screen with hot water.

3. Wet a nylon brush with hot water and liquid detergent. Scrub

lint screen with the brush to remove residue buildup.

4. Rinse screen with hot water.

5. Thoroughly dry lint screen with a clean towel. Replace screen

in dryer.

To clean dryer drum

1. Make a paste with powdered laundry detergent and very

warm water.

2. Apply paste to a soft cloth.

Apply a liquid, nonflammable household cleaner to the

stained area and rub with a soft cloth until all excess dye and

stains are removed.

3. Wipe drum thoroughly with a damp cloth.

4. Tumble a load of clean cloths or towels to dry drum.

NOTE: Garments that contain unstable dyes, such as denim blue

jeans or brightly colored cotton items, may discolor the dryer

interior. These stains are not harmful to your dryer and will not

stain future loads of clothes. Dry unstable dye items inside out to

avoid transfer of dye.

From Inside the Dryer Cabinet

Lint should be removed every 2 years, or more often, depending

on dryer usage. Cleaning should be done by a qualified person.

From the Exhaust Vent

Lint should be removed every 2 years, or more often, depending

on dryer usage.

Replace inlet hoses and hose screen after 5 years of use to

reduce the risk of hose failure. Periodically inspect and replace

inlet hoses if bulges, kinks, cuts, wear or leaks are found.

When replacing your inlet hoses, record the date of replacement.

Install and store your dryer where it will not freeze. Because some

water may stay in the hoses, freezing can damage your dryer. If

storing or moving your dryer during freezing weather, winterize it.

Non-Use or Vacation Care

Operate your dryer only when you are at home. If you will be on

vacation or not using your dryer for an extended period of time,

you should:

1. Unplug dryer or disconnect power.

2. Clean lint screen. See "Cleaning the Lint Screen."

3. Turn off the water supply to the dryer. This helps to avoid

unintended flooding (due to awater pressure surge) while you

are away.

To winterize dryer

1. Unplug dryer or disconnect power.

2. Shut off water faucet.

3. Disconnect water inlet hose from faucet and drain.

To use dryer again

1. Flush water pipes. Reconnect water inlet hose to faucet. Turn

on water faucet.

2. Plug in dryer or reconnect power.

Moving care

1. Unplug the power supply cord.

2. Shut off water faucet.

3. Disconnect the water inlet hose from faucet, then drain the

hose. Transport hose separately.

4. Make sure leveling legs are secure in dryer base.

5. Use masking tape to secure dryer door.

Reinstalling the dryer

Follow the "Installation Instructions" to locate, level and connect

the dryer.

The dryer light automatically turns on inside the dryer drum when

you open the door.
