DRYER USE
Explosion Hazard
Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as
gasoline, away from dryer.
Do not dry anything that has ever had anything
flammable on it (even after washing).
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
explosion, or fire.
Fire Hazard
No washer can completely remove oil.
Do not dry anything that has ever had any type of oil on
it (including cooking oils).
Items containing foam, rubber, or plastic must be dried
on a clothesline or by using an Air Cycle.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death
or fire.
This book covers several different models. Your dryer may not have all of the cycles and
features described.
Before using your dryer, wipe the dryer drum with a damp cloth to remove dust from storing
and shipping.
1. Clean lint screen before each load. See "Cleaning the Lint Screen."
2. Load clothes loosely into the dryer and close the door. Do not pack the dryer. Allow space
for clothes to tumble freely.
3. Turn the Cycle Control knob to the recommended cycle for the type of load being dried.
Use the Energy Preferred setting (*) to dry most heavy to medium-weight fabrics.
4. If your dryer has a [emperature selector, set it to the recommended setting for the type of
fabric being dried. See "[Dryer Cycle Descriptions" (separate sheet) for temperature
suggestions. On some models, temperature is included in the cycle selections.
5. (OPEIONAL) Your dryer may have a WRINKLE PREVENT feature selector. When you are
unable to remove a load from the dryer as soon as it stops, wrinkles can form. [his feature
periodically tumbles, rearranges and fluffs the load without heat to help smooth out
wrinkles.
6. iOPEIONAL) Your dryer may have an END OF CYCLE SIGNAl. The signal is helpful when
drying items that should be removed from the dryer as soon as it stops.
• On some models, the volume of the End of Cycle signal can be adjusted. Turn the
selector to the desired volume.
• On other models, tlne End of Cycle signal is part of the Start button and is selectable.

7. Select the desired Option. See "[Dryer Cycle [Descriptions" (separate sheet).
8. If desired, add fabric softener sheet. Follow instructions on the package.
9. Push the START button.
How Automatic Drying Works
When you are using the Auto Moisture Sensing Cycle, the dryness of the load is determined
by two metal strips/sensors) located on the inside of the dryer. The metal strips help "feel" the
amount of moisture left in the clothes as they tumble. When moisture is left in the clothes, the
Cycle Control knob will not advance. As clothes begin to dry, the amount of water left in the
clothes decreases, and the timer advances through the remainder of the cycle. When the
selected dryness level is reached, the dryer goes into a cool down period of up to 10 minutes.
Stopping and Restarting
You can stop your dryer anytime during a cycle.
To stop your dryer
Open the dryer door or turn the Cycle Control knob to OFK
NOTE: The Cycle Control knob should point to an Off area when the dryer is not in use.
To restart your dryer

TROUBLESHOOTING
First try the solutions suggested here and possibly avoid the cost of a service call...
Dryer will not run
Has a household fuse blown, or has a circuit breaker tripped?
Electric dryers use 2 household fuses or circuit breakers. The drum may be turning, but
you may not have heat. Replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker. If the problem
continues, call an electrician.
• 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?
The dryer will not start in the Wrinkle Prevent position. Move the dial past OFF.
No heat
• Has a household fuse blown, or has a circuit breaker tripped?
[he drum may be turning, but you may not have heat. Replace the fuse or reset the circuit
breaker. If the problem continues, call an electrician.
• Is the valve open on the gas supply line?
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 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.
• Is it a gas dryer?
The gas valve clicking is a normal operating sound.
• 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.
Timer does not noticeably advance
• Is the dryer set to Timed or Air Dry?
The timer moves slowly and continuously for the time setting.
• Is the dryer set to Automatic Drying?
The timer moves only when the clothing is mostly dry. See "How Automatic Drying
Works" in "Dryer Use."
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.
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.
• Is the exhaust vent or outside exhaust hood clogged with lint, restricting air movement?
Run the dryer for 5-I0 minutes. Hold your hand under the outside exhaust hood to check
air movement. [f 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.
18
• 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.
• Is the exhaust vent diameter the correct size?
Use 4" (10.2 cm) diameter vent material.
Explosion Hazard
Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as
gasoline, away from dryer.
Place dryer at least 18 inches (46 cm) above the floor
for a garage installation,
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
• 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. Sides and
front of dryer require a minimum of 1" (2.5 cm) of airspace, and the rear of the dryer
requires 5" (12.7 cm). See the Installation Instructions.
• Has an air dry cycle been selected?
Select the right cycle for the types of garments being dried.
• Is the load too large and heavy to dry quickly?
Separate the load to tumble freely.
Cycle time too short
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install dryer.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
• Is the automatic cycle ending early?
The load may not be contacting the sensor strips. [evel 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.
Lint on load :_
• Is the lint screen clogged?
Lint screen should be cleaned before each load.
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). This will not transfer to
other clothing.
Loads are wrinkled
• Was the load removed from dryer at the end of the cycle?
• 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.
