DRYER SAFETY

CHECK YOUR VENT SYSTEM FOR GOOD AIR FLOW

Good air ﬂow

Along with heat, dryers require good air ﬂow to efﬁciently

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 ﬂow. Blocked or crushed vents as well as improper

venting installation will reduce air ﬂow 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.

Maintain good air ﬂow by:

Good Better

USE SENSOR DRY/AUTOMATIC DRY CYCLES FOR BETTER

FABRIC CARE AND ENERGY SAVINGS

Use the Sensor Dry/Automatic Dry cycles to provide the most energy savings and enhanced fabric care from the dryer. During

Sensor Dry/Automatic Dry cycles, drying air temperature or moisture level is sensed in the load. This sensing occurs throughout

the drying cycle and the dryer shuts off when the load reaches the selected dryness. The Energy Preferred cycle will provide optimal

energy savings.

With Timed Dry, the dryer runs the amount of time set and 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.

■Cleaning your lint screen before each load.

■Replace plastic or foil vent material with 4" (102 mm)

diameter heavy, rigid vent material.

■Use the shortest length of vent possible.

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

each bend and curve reduces air ﬂow.

■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

ﬁnal product check.

■Clear away items from the front of the dryer.

CONTROL PANEL & FEATURES

TEMPERATURE/FABRIC

Select a drying temperature based on the fabrics in your load.

If you are unsure of the temperature to select for a load, select

the lower setting rather than the higher setting.

CYCLE KNOB

Use Cycle Knob to select available cycles on your dryer. Turn

the knob to select a cycle for your laundry load. See Cycle

Guide for detailed descriptions of cycles.

TIMED DRY

Will run the dryer for the speciﬁed time on the control.

On models with a selectable temperature knob, you may

choose a setting based on the fabrics in your load. On

some models, temperature is included in the cycle

selections. Drying time and temperature will depend on

your dryer model.

SENSOR DRY/AUTOMATIC DRY

Senses moisture in the load or air temperature and shuts

off when the load reaches the selected dryness level.

Gives the best drying in the shortest time. Drying time

will vary based on fabric type, load size, and temperature

setting.

WRINKLE CONTROL Feature (on some models)

The WRINKLE CONTROL feature will run after your drying

cycle is complete. It periodically starts and stops the dryer,

tumbling the load without heat to help avoid wrinkling.

On some models, WRINKLE CONTROL automatically

starts at the end of the cycle. Opening the door will stop

this feature.

NOTE: A signal will sound periodically when the WRINKLE

CONTROL setting is selected, but only if the End of Cycle

signal is also selected.

WRINKLE CONTROL option (on some models)

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

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

CONTROL option periodically tumbles, rearranges, and ﬂuffs

the load to help keep wrinkles from forming.

■Get up to 90 minutes of heat-free, periodic tumbling at

the end of a cycle. Turn the WRINKLE CONTROL knob

to select OFF or 90 min. at any time before the cycle has

ended.

DRYER CARE

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

air ﬂow for proper dryer operation. This includes clearing piles

of laundry in front of the dryer.

Cleaning the lint screen

Every load cleaning

The lint screen is located in the dryer. 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 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.

■ 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 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.

4. Rinse screen with hot water.

5. Thoroughly dry lint screen with a clean towel. Reinstall

screen in dryer.

Cleaning the dryer interior

To clean dryer drum

1. Apply a liquid, nonﬂammable household cleaner to the

stained area of the drum and rub with a soft cloth until

stain is removed.

2. Wipe drum thoroughly with a damp cloth.

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

NOTE: Garments that contain loose 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 these items inside out to

avoid drum staining.

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 qualiﬁed servicer.

From the Exhaust Vent

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

on dryer usage.
