DRYERCARE

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

flow of combustion and ventilation air.

Explosion Hazard

Keep flararaable materials and vapors, such as

gasoline, away from dryer.

Place dryer at least 18 inches (460 rata) 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.

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.

IM PORTANT:

• Do not run the dryer if the lint screen is 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.

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.

Rinse screen with hot water.

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.

, _e ............. _£} .......

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 Storage Care

TROUBLESHOOTING

First try the solutions suggested here and possibly avoid the cost of a service call...

For additional recommendations, refer to your Installation Instructions.

Dryer will not run

Is the dryerdoor firmly closed?

Was the Start/Pause button firmly pressed?

Large loads may require pressing and holding the Start/Pause

button for 2-5 seconds.

Has a household fuse blown, or has a circuit breaker

tripped?

There may be 2 household fuses or circuit breakers for the

dryer. Check that both fuses are intact and tight, or that both

circuit breakers have not tripped. Replace the fuse or reset the

circuit breaker. If the problem continues, call an electrician.

Is the correct power supply available?

Electric dryers require 240-volt power supply. Check with a

qualified electrician.

Was a regular fuse used?

Use a time-delay fuse.

Unusualsounds

Has the dryer had a period of non-use?

If the dryer hasn't been used for a while, there may be a

thumping sound during the first few minutes of operation.

Is a coin, button, or paper clip caught between the drum

and front or rear of the dryer?

Check the front and rear edges of the drum for small objects.

Clean out pockets before laundering.

Are the four legs installed, and is the dryer level front to

back and side to side?

The dryer may vibrate if not properly installed. See the

Installation Instructions.

Is the clothing knotted or balled up?

When balled up, the load will bounce, causing the dryer to

vibrate. Separate the load items and restart the dryer.

No heat

Has a household fuse blown, or has a circuit breaker

tripped?

The drum may be turning, but you may not have heat. Electric

dryers use 2 household fuses or circuit breakers. Replace the

fuse or reset the circuit breaker. If the problem continues, call

an electrician.

Dryer displaying code message

"PF" (power failure), check the following:

Was the drying cycle interrupted by a power failure?

Press and Hold to START to restart the dryer.

"F# E#" (F1 El, F3 El, etc.) variable service codes:

If a code beginning with an "F" appears in the display,

alternating between F# and E#, the dryer control has detected

a problem that requires service. Call for service.

Clothes are not drying satisfactorily, drying times are too

long, or load is too hot

Is the lint screen clogged with lint?

Lint screen should be cleaned before each load.

Has the Air Dry temperature setting been selected?

Select the right temperature for the types of garments being

dried. See "Air Dry."

Is the load too large and heavy to dry quickly?

Separate the load to tumble freely.

Is the exhaust vent or outside exhaust hood clogged with

lint, restricting air movement?

Run the dryer for 5-10 minutes. Hold your hand under the

outside exhaust hood to check air movement. If you do not

feel air movement, clean exhaust system of lint or replace

exhaust vent with heavy metal or flexible metal vent. See the

Installation Instructions.

• Are fabric softener sheets blocking the grille?

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

• Are drying times too long or are clothes too dry?

Automatic cycle default settings may have been changed. See

Changing the Automatic Cycle Default Settings.

• Is the exhaust vent the correct length?

Check that the exhaust vent is not too long or has too many

turns. Long venting will increase drying times. See the

Installation Instructions. See also Changing the Automatic

Cycle Default Settings, if you are unable to shorten the vent

length.

• Is the exhaust vent diameter the correct size?

Use 4" (102 mm) diameter vent material.

• Is the dryer located in a room with temperature below 45°F

(7°C)?

Proper operation of dryer cycles requires temperatures above

45°F (7°C).

Is the dryer 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.

Cycle time too short

• Is the automatic cycle ending early?

The load may not be contacting the sensor strips. Level the

dryer.

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 Dry Default

Settings.

Lint on load

• Is the lint screen clogged?

Clean lint screen. Check for air movement.

Stains on load or drum

Was dryer fabric softener properly used?

Add dryer fabric softener sheets at the beginning of the cycle.

Fabric softener sheets added to a partially dried load can

stain your garments.

Drum stains are caused by dyes in clothing (usually blue

jeans). These will not transfer to other clothing.

Loads are wrinkled

Was the load removed from dryer at the end of the cycle?

Select Enhanced Touch Up Cycle to tumble the load with

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

and reducing odors from loads consisting of wrinkle-free

cotton, cotton polyester blends, common knits and synthetic

garments.

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

garments are not recommended.

Loads are still wrinkled following Steam Cycle?

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.

Was the dryer overloaded?

Dry smaller loads that can tumble freely.

Odors

Have you recently been painting, staining, or varnishing in

the area where your dryer is located?

If so, ventilate the area. When the odors or fumes are gone

from the area, rewash and dry the clothing.

Is water 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.

To remove odors left in garments after wearing, select Quick

Refresh for small loads of 1-4 garments. This cycle is best for

reducing wrinkles and odors from loads consisting of wrinkle-

free cotton, cotton polyester blends, common knits, and

synthetics.

IMPORTANT: Your dryness level settings can be adjusted to

adapt to different installations, environmental conditions or

personal preference. This change is retained and will affect all of

your Automatic cycles, not just the current cycle/load.

If all your loads on all Automatic cycles are consistently not as dry

as you would like, you may change the default settings to increase

the default dryness level.

Your default drying settings can be adjusted to adapt to different

installations, environmental conditions or personal preference.

There are 3 drying settings, which are displayed using the time

display:

1. Factory preset dryness level.

2. Slightly drier clothes, 15% more drying time.

3. Much drier clothes, 30% more drying time.

To change the default drying settings:

NOTE: The default settings cannot be changed while the dryer is

running or paused. The dryer must be in standby mode to adjust

the default settings.

1. Press and hold the TEMP button for at least 6 seconds. The

dryer will beep, the letters "CF" will flash briefly in the display,

then the current drying mode will be displayed.

2. To select a new drying setting, press the TEMP button again

until the desired drying setting is shown.

NOTE: While cycling through the settings, the current setting

will be lit solid, but the other settings will flash.

3. Press the START/PAUSE button to save the drying setting and

exit to standby mode.

NOTE: To exit without saving, press the POWER button.

Programmes vapeur

Avec ces programmes, une petite quantite d'eau est pulverisee

dans le tambour de la secheuse apres plusieurs minutes de

culbutage avec chaleur. Le temoin lumineux STEAM (vapeur)

s'allume Iorsque I'eau est pulverisee dans le tambour. La

secheuse continuera & effectuer le culbutage &une chaleur elevee

pendant la duree du programme. Les programmes vapeur

comprennent les fonctions Quick Refresh (rafrafchissement

rapide) et Enhanced Touch Up (retouche amelioree). Le reglage de

chaleur et la duree de programme ne sont pas reglables pour le

programme Quick Refresh (rafrafchissement rapide), mais

peuvent etre regles pour le programme Enhanced Touch Up

(retouche amelioree).

REMARQUE : Les resultats peuvent varier selon le tissu. II est

possible que les vetements 100 % en coton avec fini

antifroissement donnent de meilleurs resultats que ceux qui ne

possedent pas ce fini.

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

recommande avec les programmes vapeur car ceci pourrait

temporairement tacher les vetements.

s'ajuster pour afficher une duree de sechage plus precise.

Wet (mouill_)

Le temoin Wet s'allume au debut d'un programme automatique si

un article mouille est detecte.

• Au cours d'un programme automatique, si un article mouille

n'est pas detecte apres environ 5 minutes, lasecheuse passe

directement a la periode de refroidissement et les temoins Cool

Down et WRINKLE SHIELD TM s'allument, si la fonction est

selectionnee.

Au cours d'un programme minute, les articles mouilles ne sont

pas detectes. La secheuse continuera afonctionner pour la

duree de temps selectionnee et le temoin Wet s'allumera. Le

temoin lumineux Damp (humide) ne s'allumera pas.

Dans les programmes a la vapeur Enhanced Touch Up

(retouche amelioree) et Quick Refresh (rafrafchissement

rapide), le temoin Wet s'allume apres I'aspersion de I'eau dans

le tambour, ce qui represente 4 a 5 minutes pendant le

programme. Le temoin Wet reste allume jusqu'a ce que la

secheuse passe au refroidissement, 1 minute avant la fin du

programme.

Damp Dry Signal (signal de s_chage humide)

Sur certains modeles, on peut selectionner le signal de sechage
