IMPORTANT: When discarding or storing your old clothes dryer, remove the door.

Check Your Vent System For Good Air Flow

Good air ow

Maintain good air ow by:

Cleaning your lint screen before each load.

Replace plastic or foil vent material

with 4" (102 mm) diameter heavy, rigid

vent material.

Good

Better

Use the shortest length of vent possible.

Use no more than four 90° elbows in a vent system;

each bend and curve reduces air ow.

Remove lint and debris from the exhaust hood.

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 nal product check.

Clear away items from the front of the dryer.

What To Dry and How To Dry? for better fabric care and energy savings.

By answering these questions, you can achieve the most energy savings and enhanced fabric care from your dryer. Using these

automatic cycles, the drying air temperature and moisture levels are sensed in the load. This sensing process occurs throughout

the entire drying cycle and turns off once the load reaches your selected dryness level. Using a dryness level between Less and

More, provides the optimal energy savings.

If Timed Dry is your answer, the dryer runs for the amount of time you select, which 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.

Tips for getting the best performance from your steam dryer (on some models)

Results may vary depending on fabric. 100% cotton

garments with wrinkle-free nish may yield better results

than those without. 100% cotton items may require

additional touching up after cycles that use steam.

Use of fabric softener sheet is not recommended with

cycles that use steam. It may cause temporary staining

on clothes.

Cycles that use steam are not recommended for items that

have been starched. Wash any starched or new garments

prior to using a cycle that uses steam.

The Steam Refresh Cycle is best for smoothing out wrinkles

and reducing odors from loads consisting of dry items of

wrinkle-free cotton, cotton-polyester blend, common knits,

and synthetics.

Along with heat, dryers require good air ow to efciently

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 air ow. Blocked or crushed vents as well

as improper venting installation will reduce air ow and

dryer performance.

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. To clean or repair venting, contact a

venting specialist.

CLEANING THE LINT SCREEN

Every load cleaning

The lint screen is located in the top of the dryer. The

control panel has an indicator light “Check Lint” to remind

you to clean the lint screen after each load. A screen

blocked by lint can increase drying time.

To clean:

1. Pull the lint screen out of its holder. Roll lint off the

screen with your ngers. Do not rinse or wash screen

to remove lint. Wet lint is hard to remove.

2. Push the lint screen rmly 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” in the Installation Instructions.

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 ngers.

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.

Reinstall screen in dryer.

Dryer Care

CLEANING THE DRYER LOCATION

Keep dryer area clear and free from items that would

block the air ow for proper dryer operation. This includes

clearing piles of laundry in front of the dryer.

CLEANING THE DRYER INTERIOR

To clean dryer drum

1. Use a mild hand dish detergent mixed at a low

concentration with very warm water, and rub with

a soft cloth.

2. Rinse well with a wet sponge or towel.

3. Tumble a load of clean clothes or towels to dry drum

Use a microber cloth and hot water in a spray bottle

to clean the drum and a second microber towel to dry.

NOTE: Garments that contain unstable dyes, such as

denim blue jeans or brightly colored cotton items, may

discolor the rear of 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.

REMOVING ACCUMULATED LINT

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

qualied appliance servicer or ventilation system cleaner.

From the Exhaust Vent

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

depending on dryer usage.

SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS

Troubleshooting

If you experience Possible Causes Solution

Dryer Results (cont.)

Drying times are too

long and clothes are not

getting dry (cont.)

The load is too large and heavy to dry

quickly.

Separate the load to tumble freely.

Fabric softener sheets are blocking

the grille.

Check that the air outlet grille is not blocked by a fabric softener

sheet. Use only one fabric softener sheet, and use it only once.

The dryer is located in a room with

temperature below 45ºF (7ºC).

Proper operation of dryer cycles requires temperatures above

45ºF (7ºC).

The dryer is located in a closet. Closet doors must have ventilation openings at the top and

bottom of the door. The front of the dryer requires a minimum of

1" (25 mm) of airspace, and, for most installations, the rear of the

dryer requires 5" (127 mm). See the Installation Instructions.

Clothes are getting over

or under dried

The Automatic Cycle settings are too

high or too low.

See “Changing the Automatic Cycle settings to increase or

decrease drying time” to adjust your dryer settings.

Cycle time is too short The load may not be contacting the

sensor strips on Automatic Cycles.

Level the dryer. See the Installation Instructions. All four dryer

feet should be in rm contact with the oor.

The automatic cycle is ending early. Change the dryness level setting on Automatic Cycles.

Increasing or decreasing the dryness level will change the

amount of drying time in a cycle. If loads are consistently ending

too early, see also “Changing the Automatic Cycle settings to

increase or decrease drying time.”

Lint on load Lint screen is clogged with lint. Clean lint screen before each load.

Damp spots on load Clothes are coming out of the Steam

Refresh cycle with damp or wet

spots.

Under certain environmental or installation conditions, you may

experience underdrying.

When using Steam Refresh cycle for a single item, it is

recommended to throw a towel in the dryer to prevent

damp spots.

Stains on load Improper use of fabric softener. Add dryer fabric softener sheets at the beginning of the cycle.

Fabric softener sheets added to a partially dried load can stain

your garments. Do not use fabric softener sheets with steam

cycles.

Stains on drum Loose dyes in clothes. Drum stains are caused by dyes in clothing (usually blue jeans).

These will not transfer to other clothing.

Loads are wrinkled The load was not removed from dryer

at the end of the cycle.

Select Steam Refresh cycle to tumble the load with water and

heat. This cycle is best for smoothing out wrinkles and reducing

odors from dry loads consisting of wrinkle-free cotton, cotton-

polyester blends, common knits, and synthetics.

NOTE: Refer to garment care label instructions. Dry-clean-only

garments are not recommended.

The dryer was tightly packed. Dry smaller loads that can tumble freely. Results may also vary

depending on fabric type.

For steam cycles, the water is not

properly connected with the dryer.

Make sure water is connected to the dryer. Check that water

inlet hose is connected to both the faucet and dryer’s water inlet

valve. Check that the water supply is turned on.

Odors Recent painting, staining, or

varnishing in the area where your

dryer is located.

Ventilate the area. When the odors or fumes are gone from the

area, rewash and dry the clothing.

Sécurité de la sécheuse

IMPORTANT : Pour mettre l’ancienne sécheuse au rebut ou pour la remiser, enlever la porte.

Vérication d’une circulation d’air adéquate pour le système d’évacuation

Circulation d’air adéquate

Maintenir une bonne circulation d’air

en effectuant les opérations suivantes :

Nettoyer le ltre à charpie avant chaque

charge.

Remplacer le matériau de conduits

d’évacuation en plastique ou en aluminium

par des conduits d’évacuation lourds et

rigides de 4" (102 mm) de diamètre.

Bonne

Meilleur

Toujours employer les conduits d’évacuation les plus

courts possible.

Ne pas utiliser plus de quatre coudes à 90° dans

un circuit d’évacuation car chaque inclinaison et courbe

réduit le ux d’air.

Retirer la charpie et les résidus du clapet d’évacuation.

Retirer la charpie sur toute la longueur du circuit

d’évacuation au moins tous les 2 ans. Après le

nettoyage, veuillez suivre les instructions d’installation

fournies avec la sécheuse pour une vérication nale

de l’appareil.

Dégager tout article qui se trouverait devant la sécheuse.

Conseils pour obtenir la meilleure performance de votre sécheuse avec vapeur

(sur certains modèles)

n Les résultats peuvent varier selon le tissu. Il est possible que

les vêtements 100 % coton avec ni infroissable donnent

de meilleurs résultats que les autres. Il est possible que

les articles 100 % coton nécessitent un rafraîchissement

supplémentaire après le programme à vapeur

n L’emploi d’une feuille d’assouplissant de tissu n’est pas

recommandé avec les programmes à vapeur. Ceci pourrait

causer des tâches temporaires sur les vêtements

n L’utilisation de programmes à vapeur n’est pas

recommandée pour des articles amidonnés. Laver

les articles amidonnés ou neufs avant d’utiliser

un programme avec vapeur.

n Le programme Steam Refresh (rafraîchissement avec

vapeur) est idéal pour aplanir les faux-plis et réduire les

odeurs des charges composées d’un ou quatre articles

en coton infroissable, en mélange de coton et polyester,

de tricots ordinaires et de vêtements synthétiques

Une sécheuse a besoin de chaleur et d’une circulation d’air

adéquate pour sécher efcacement le linge. Une ventilation

adéquate réduit les durées de séchage et accroît les

économies d’énergie. Voir les Instructions d’installation.

Le système d’évacuation xé à la sécheuse joue un rôle

important dans la circulation de l’air. Des conduits

d’évacuation bloqués ou écrasés, ainsi qu’une installation

inadéquate de l’évacuation diminuent la circulation d’air et

les performances de la sécheuse.

Les interventions de dépannage causées par une ventilation

incorrecte ne sont pas couvertes par la garantie et seront

à la charge du client, quel que soit l’installateur de la

sécheuse. Pour nettoyer ou réparer l’évacuation d’air,

contacter un technicien qualié dans l’évacuation d’air.

What To Dry (articles à sécher) et How To Dry (méthode de séchage)? pour un meilleur soin

du tissu et davantage d’économies d’énergie.

En répondant à ces questions, vous parviendrez à réaliser un maximum d’économies d’énergie et à prendre davantage soin des

tissus lors de l’utilisation de votre sécheuse. Durant ces programmes automatiques, la température de séchage de l’air et le niveau

d’humidité sont détectés dans la charge. Ce processus de détection se produit tout au long du programme de séchage et s’arrête

lorsque la charge atteint le degré de séchage sélectionné. Utiliser le niveau de séchage NORMAL pour permettre de réaliser un

maximum d’économies d’énergie.

Avec l’option de séchage minuté, la sécheuse fonctionne pendant la durée réglée, ce qui peut parfois entraîner le rétrécissement

ou le froissement du linge et l’accumulation d’électricité statique due au séchage excessif. Utiliser le séchage minuté pour une

charge encore humide nécessitant un peu de temps supplémentaire ou lors de l’utilisation de la grille de séchage.
