Setting:

Use Sensor Dry Cycles for better fabric care and energy savings

When you are using the GentleBreeze™Drying System with IntelliDry®Sensor, two metal strips located on the dryer determine the

dryness of the load. When there is moisture left in the clothes, the dryer will continue to run. 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 15 minutes.

Sensor dry cycles may be used for most loads. Sensor dry cycles give the best drying results in the shortest time. Drying time varies

according to the type of fabric, size of the load, and dryness setting.

After drying a load, check the dryness.

n If the load is drier than you like, select a setting closer to Iron Dry the next time you dry a similar load.

n 

If a load is not as dry as you like, complete drying using a Timed cycle. Select a setting closer to More Dry the next time you dry

a similar load.

CYCLE GUIDE — TIMED DRY CYCLES

Use this cycle to get up to 60 minutes of heated drying time or to complete drying if items are still damp after the automatic cycle.

Timed Dry is also useful for:

n Heavyweight items and work clothes that require a long drying time.

n Lightweight items, such as lingerie, blouses, and knits that require a short drying time.

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.

CLEANING THE LINT SCREEN

Every load cleaning

The lint screen is located in the door opening of the dryer.

The control panel has an indicator light to remind you to

clean the lint screen before each load. A screen blocked

by lint can increase drying time.

To clean:

1. Pull the lint screen straight up. Open lint screen. Roll lint

off the screen with your ngers. Do not rinse or wash

screen to remove lint. Wet lint is hard to remove.

2. Close lint screen. Push the lint screen rmly 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 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.

VACATION, STORAGE, AND MOVING CARE

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

Operate your dryer only when you are at home. If you will

be on vacation or not using your dryer for an extended

period of time, you should:

1. Unplug dryer or disconnect power.

2. Clean lint screen. See “Cleaning the Lint Screen.”

Moving Care

For power supply cord-connected dryers:

1. Unplug the power supply cord.

2. Make sure leveling legs are secure in dryer base.

3. Use masking tape to secure dryer door.

For direct-wired dryers:

1. Disconnect power.

2. Disconnect wiring.

3. Make sure leveling legs are secure in dryer base.

4. Use tape to secure dryer door.

Reinstalling the Dryer

LOCATION REQUIREMENTS

Check code requirements. Some codes limit, or do not permit,

installing dryer in garages, closets, mobile homes, or sleeping

quarters. Contact your local building inspector.

You will need:

nA location allowing for proper exhaust installation.

See “Venting Requirements.”

nA separate 30 amp circuit.

nIf using power supply cord, a grounded electrical outlet

located within 2 ft. (610 mm) of either side of dryer.

See “Electrical Requirements.”

nFloor must support dryer weight of 115 lbs. (52 kg).

Also consider weight of companion appliance.

nLevel oor with maximum slope of 1" (25 mm) under entire

dryer. If slope is greater than 1" (25 mm), install Extended

Dryer Feet Kit, Part Number 279810. If not level, clothes

may not tumble properly and automatic sensor cycles may

not operate correctly.

nFor garage installation, place dryer at least 18" (460 mm)

above oor. If using a pedestal, you will need 18" (460 mm)

to bottom of dryer.

nThe dryer must not be installed or stored in an area where

it will be exposed to water and/or weather.

IMPORTANT: Do not operate, install, or store dryer where

it will be exposed to water, weather, or at temperatures below

45° F (7° C). Lower temperatures may cause dryer not to

shut off at end of sensor cycles, resulting in longer drying times.

Installation Clearances

For each arrangement, consider allowing more space for ease

of installation and servicing, spacing for companion appliances,

and clearances for walls, doors, and oor moldings. Space

must be large enough to allow door to fully open. Add spacing

on all sides of dryer to reduce noise transfer. If a closet door

or louvered door is installed, top and bottom air openings

in door are required.

Check code requirements. Some codes limit, or do not permit,

installation of the dryer in garages, closets, mobile homes, or

sleeping quarters. Contact your local building inspector.
