CHECKING

YOUR VENT

Your dryer must be properly installed and vented to achieve

maximum drying efficiency and shorten drying times. Use the

minimum recommended installation clearances (found in your

Installation Instructions) to avoid blocking the flow of combustion

and ventilation air. 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

death or fire.

The exhaust vent can be routed up, down, left, right, or

straight out the back of the dryer. Space requirements are

listed in your Installation Instructions.

4. Use the straightest path possible when routing the exhaust

vent. Use the fewest number of elbows and turns. Allow

room when using elbows or making turns. Bend vent

gradually to avoid kinking.

bet!__

5. Use duct tape to seal all joints. Do not use screws to secure

vent. Lint may catch on screws.

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.

1. Do not use plastic vent or metal foil vent. Use 4 in. (10.2 cm)

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.

(10 2 era)

2. Use a 4 in. (10.2 cm) exhaust hood. Smaller hoods increase

drying times.

(10.2 cm)

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.

• To clean out lint, use the hose attachment on your

vacuum, or a pole or wire with a feather duster or rag

attached.

• 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.

Drying tips

• Follow care label directions when they are available.

• If you use fabric softener sheets, use only those labeled

"dryer safe." 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.

Cycle and temperature tips

• Dry most loads using the Energy Preferred Automatic

Setting (.), if available on your dryer.

• 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 fabrics, and

some knits.

• Use a Low Heat setting for drying lightweight items such as

lingerie, blouses, dresses, and some knits.

• Use a no-heat (air) setting for rubber, plastic, or heat-sensitive

fabrics.

• Line dry bonded or laminated fabrics.

NOTE: If you have questions about drying temperatures for

various loads, refer to the care label directions. If you are unsure

of the temperature to select for a load, select a lower setting

rather than a higher setting.

CYCLE DESCRIPTIONS

Use the automatic cycle to dry most loads. Your dryer uses the

AUTO SENSE DRY automatic 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.

Dry most loads using the Energy Preferred Automatic Setting (,).

• 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 the

Timed Dry cycle. The next time you dry a similar load, select a

setting closer to Very Dry.

NOTE: Drying time with an automatic cycle varies according to

the type of fabric, size of load, and temperature setting. See

"Drying, Cycle and Temperature Tips."

Use the Timed Dry cycle to complete drying if items are still

damp after the automatic cycle.

Timed Dry is also useful for:

• Heavyweight and bulky items, such as bedspreads and work

clothes and large loads that require a long drying time. Set

the Temperature selector to High heat or to a setting that

matches the care label directions.

• Lightweight items, such as lingerie, blouses, and knits that

require a short drying time. Set the Temperature selector at

Low heat.

NOTE: Drying time and temperature will depend on your dryer

model.

Max Dry

Select this setting to evenly dry large or heavy items, such as

thick cotton bath towels or robes. Set the Temperature selector, if

available, to High heat.

Damp Dry

Select this setting to dry items to a damp level or dry items that

do not require an entire drying cycle. Damp dry items such as

jeans (to prevent stiffness) or cotton clothes (to make pressing

easier). Set the Temperature selector, if available, to High heat.

Wrinkle Free

Use this setting to remove wrinkles from items, such as clothes

packed in a suitcase or items wrinkled from being left in the dryer

too long. Set the Temperature selector, if available, at Low or

Medium heat, depending on the fabrics in your load.

WRINKLE PREVENT TM feature

When you are unable to remove a load of clothes from the dryer

as soon as it stops, wrinkles can form. The WRINKLE PREVENT

feature periodically tumbles, rearranges and fluffs the load

without heat for up to 45 minutes. During this cycle, the dryer

stops tumbling and then begins to tumble again. This stop and

start process is repeated until the end of the cycle. A signal will

sound periodically when the WRINKLE PREVENT feature is on, if

the End of Cycle Signal is selected. The signal and the tumbling

will end when you open the dryer door, or turn the Cycle Control

knob to Off.

• On some models, the WRINKLE PREVENT feature is

automatic and activates at the end of the cycle if you do not

open the dryer door within a few minutes after the cycle ends.

• On some models, you can turn the WRINKLE PREVENT

feature On or Off.

End of Cycle Signal

If the End of Cycle Signal is On, the signal sounds when a cycle is

complete. Ifthe WRINKLE PREVENTfeature is on, the signal sounds

every few minutes. The signal stops when you open the door.

PUSH TO STARr

You can order a drying rack by calling 1-800-447-6737 (U.S.A.) or

1-800-807-6777 (Canada) or by contacting the dealer from whom

you purchased your dryer. The rack is useful for machine drying

items you would not necessarily want to tumble dry or that you

would normally line dry (for example, tennis shoes, pillows,

stuffed toys).

To use the drying rack

1. Slide rear pegs into the dimples on the back wall of the dryer.

Lower the front legs to rest on the dryer opening.

2. Put the wet items on top of the rack. Leave space between

the items so air can reach all the surfaces. Close the door.

NOTE: Do not allow items to hang over the edge of the rack.

3. Select the Timed Dry or No Heat/Fluff cycle. Items containing

foam, rubber, or plastic must be dried on a clothesline or by

using an air cycle.

4. Push the START button.

NOTE: You must remove rack for normal tumbling. Do not use

the automatic cycle with the drying rack.

This chart shows examples of items that can be rack dried and

the suggested cycle, temperature setting and drying time. Actual

drying time will depend on the amount of moisture items hold.

DRYER CARE

Every load cleaning

The lint screen is located on the top of the dryen Clean it before

each load. A screen blocked by lint can increase drying time.

To clean

1. Pull the lint screen towards you. 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.

• Some towels made of synthetic fibers and natural 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.

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

the exhaust hood and remove the lint. See "Checking Your

Vent."

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 the screen.

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

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

To wash

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.

Explosion Hazard

Use nonflammable cleaner.

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion,

or fire.

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, 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.

NOTE: Garments which 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 prevent dye transfer.

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

depending on dryer usage. Cleaning should be done by a

qualified person.

3. Rinse screen with hot water.

4. Thoroughly dry lint screen with a clean towel. Insert lint

screen back into dryer.

The dryer light automatically turns on inside the dryer drum when

you open the door.

Fire Hazard

Replace light bulb cover before operating dryer.

Failure to do so can result in death or fire.

To change drum light type 1

1. Unplug dryer or disconnect power.

2. Open the dryer door. Locate the light bulb cover on the back

wall of the dryer. Turn the cover clockwise. Remove cover

from dryer.

3. Turn bulb counterclockwise. Replace the bulb with a 40-watt

appliance bulb only. Replace the cover and lock in place by

turning counterclockwise.

4. Plug in dryer or reconnect power.

To change drum light type 2

1. Unplug dryer or disconnect power.

2. Open the dryer door. Locate the light bulb cover on the back

wall of the dryer. Remove the screw located in the lower right

corner of the cover. Remove the cover.

3. Turn bulb counterclockwise. Replace the bulb with a 10-watt

appliance bulb only. Replace the cover.

4. Plug in dryer or reconnect power.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Firsttry the solutions suggested hers and possibly avoid

the cost of a service call...

Clothes are not drying satisfactorily

• Checkthe following:

Is the lint screen clogged with lint?

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 "Installation Instructions."

Is the exhaust vent crushed or kinked? Replace with heavy

metal or flexible metal vent. See "Installation Instructions."

Has a fuse blown, or a circuit breaker tripped? Electric dryers

use 2 household fuses or breakers. The drum may be turning,

but you may not have heat.

Has an air dry cycle been selected? Select the right cycle for

the types of garments being dried. See "Drying, Cycle and

Temperature Tips."

For gas dryers, is the valve open on the supply line?

Are fabric softener sheets blocking the grill? Use only one

fabric softener sheet, and use it only once.

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).

Was a cold rinse water used? Was the load very wet?

Expect longer drying times with items rinsed in cold water

and with items that hold moisture (cottons).

Is the load too large and heavy to dry quickly?

Separate the load to tumble freely.

Dryer will not run

• Checkthe following:

Is the power cord plugged in?

Has afuse blown, or has a circuit breaker tripped?

Was a regular fuse used? Use a time-delay fuse.

Is the dryer door firmly closed?

Was the START button firmly pressed?

Is a cycle selected?

Unusual sounds

• 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 it a gas dryer?

The gas valve clicking is a normal operating sound.

Lint on load

• Is the lint screen clogged?

Clean lint screen. Check for air movement.

Is the load properly sorted?

Sort lint givers (towels, chenille) from lint takers (corduroy,

synthetics). Also sort by color.

Is the load too big or too heavy?

Dry smaller loads so lint can be carried to the lint screen.

Was the load overdried?

Use correct dryer settings for load type. Overdrying can

cause lint-attracting static electricity. See "Drying, Cycle, and

Temperature Tips."

Was paper or tissue left in pockets?

Is pilling being mistaken for lint?

Pilling (surface fuzz) is caused by normal wear and

laundering.

Stains on load or color change

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.

Were items soiled when placed in the dryer?

Items should be clean before being dried.

Were items properly sorted?

Sort light colors from dark colors. Sort colorfast items from

noncolorfast items.

Items shrinking

• Was thedryer overloaded?

Dry smaller loads that will tumble freely.

• Did the load overdry?

Check the manufacturer's care label. Match dryer setting to

load type. See "Drying, Cycle, and Temperature Tips."

Loads are wrinkled

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

• Was thedryer overloaded?

Dry smaller loads that will tumble freely.

• Did the load overdry?

Check the manufacturer's care label. Match dryer setting to

load type. See "Drying, Cycle, and Temperature Tips."

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, re-wash and dry the clothing.

• If the dryer is electric, is it being used for the first time?

The new electric heating element may have an odor. The odor

will be gone after the first cycle.

• If the dryer is gas, there may be a gas leak.

Turn off the gas supply line, leave your house, and then call

your local gas company.

Garment damage

• Checkthe following:

Were zippers, snaps, and hooks left open?

Were strings and sashes tied to prevent tangling?

Were care label instructions followed?

Were items damaged before drying?
