CHECK YOUR VENT SYSTEM FOR GOOD AIRFLOW
Good airflow
Along with heat, dryers require good airflow to efficiently dry
laundry. Proper venting will reduce your drying times and
improve your energy savings. See Installation Instructions.
The venting system attached to the dryer plays a big role in
good airflow.
Service calls caused by improper venting are not covered by
the warranty and will be paid by the customer, regardless of
who installed the dryer.
Maintain good airflow by:
Good Better
n
Cleaning your lint screen before each load.
n
Replace plastic or foil vent material with 4" (102 mm)
diameter heavy, rigid vent material.
n
Use the shortest length of vent possible.
n
Use no more than four 90° elbows in a vent system;
each bend and curve reduces air flow.
n
Remove lint and debris from the exhaust hood.
n
Remove lint from the entire length of the vent system
at least every 2 years. When cleaning is complete, be
sure to follow the Installation Instructions supplied with
your dryer for final product check.

Use Sensor Dry cycles for better fabric care and energy savings
Use the Sensor Dry cycles to provide the most energy savings and enhanced fabric care from the dryer. During Sensor Dry cycles,
drying air temperature or moisture level are sensed in the load. This sensing occurs throughout the drying cycle and the dryer shuts off
when the load reaches the selected dryness. The Energy Preferred cycle will provide optimal energy savings.
With Timed Dry, the dryer runs the amount of time set and sometimes results in shrinkage, wrinkling, and static due to
over-drying. Use Timed Dry for the occasional damp load that needs a little more drying time or when using the drying rack.
USING LESS WATER AND ENERGY
This washer is designed to use less water and energy, and complies
with all 2011 energy standards. Wash cycles with controlled
temperatures are designed to maintain cleaning performance while
using less water and energy compared to older traditional washers.
As a result, water levels will be lower, and hot and warm wash
temperatures may not be as warm as you are used to.

WASHER/DRYER MAINTENANCE
WASHER CARE
Recommendations to Help Keep Your Washer Clean
and Performing at its Best
1. Always follow the detergent manufacturer’s instructions
regarding the amount of detergent to use. Never use more than
the recommended amount because that may increase the rate
at which detergent and soil residue accumulate inside your
washer, which in turn may result in undesirable odor.
2. Use warm and hot wash water settings sometimes (not
exclusively cold water washes), because they do a better job
of controlling the rate at which soils and detergent accumulate.
3. Always leave the washer lid open between uses to help dry out
the washer and prevent the buildup of odor-causing residue.
Cleaning Your Top Loading Washer
Read these instructions completely before beginning the
routine cleaning processes recommended below. This Washer
Maintenance Procedure should be performed, at a minimum, once
per month or every 30 wash cycles, whichever occurs sooner,
to control the rate at which soils and detergent may otherwise
accumulate in your washer. To keep washer interior odor-free,
follow this recommended monthly cleaning procedure:
affresh
®
Washer Cleaner Cycle Procedure (Recommended for

CLEANING THE LINT SCREEN
Every load cleaning
The lint screen is located in the door opening of the dryer.
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:
n
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.
n
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.

Washer not performing as expected (cont.)
Use a cycle with a low spin speed. Cycles with lower spin speeds remove less water than cycles
with high spin speeds. Use the recommended cycle/speed spin for
your garment. To remove extra water in the load, select Spin. Load
may need to be rearranged to allow even distribution of the load in
the basket.
Small items may have been caught in pump or between basket and
tub, which can slow draining.
Empty pockets and use garment bags
for small items.
Washer not draining/
spinning, loads are
still wet
Washer not loaded as recommended. Tightly packing or unbalanced loads will not allow the washer to
spin correctly, leaving the load wetter than normal. See “Using Your
Washer” for loading recommendations.
Check plumbing for correct drain hose
installation. Drain hose extends into
standpipe farther than 4.5" (114 mm).
Check drain hose for proper installation. Use drain hose form
and securely attach to drainpipe or tub. Do not tape over drain
opening. Lower drain hose if the end is higher than 96" (2.4 m)
above the floor. Remove any clogs from drain hose.
Washer won’t run
or fill, washer stops
working (cont.)
Too much detergent causing suds
to slow or stop draining and spinning.

The washer will not rinse well if tightly packed. Load with dry items
only.
Use cycle designed for the fabrics being washed.
Add only 1 or 2 garments after washer has started.
The high spin speeds combined with air flow during the final
spin can cause items near the top of the load to develop dry spots
during the final spin. This is normal.
High speed spins extract more
moisture than traditional top-load
washers.
Add an extra rinse to the selected cycle. Heavy sand, pet hair, lint, and
detergent or bleach residues may
require additional rinsing.
Sand, pet hair, lint,
etc. on load after
washing
Load is tangling Washer not loaded as recommended. See “Using Your Washer” section.
Select a cycle with a slower wash action and spin speed;
however, items will be wetter than those using a higher
