The automatic cycles allow you to se-

lect the degree of dryness you prefer

to handle.

press, Knits and other synth’etic fab-

rics. The load tumbles without heat

during the last 10 minutes. This helps

keep wrinkles from setting in, and

makes the load easier to handle.

For the first few loads, set the Control

Knob to point to an $+ in either auto-

matic cycle. When the dryer stops, feel

the dried items.

If items are drier than you like, use

a setting to the right of the Jk the next

time you dry a similar load.

If items are not as dry as you like, use

a setting to the left of the +$ the next

time You dry a similar load.

Timed drying

Use the TIMED DRYING Cycle for

any load you want to dry by time. For

example: small loads, large bulky

items, items to be fluffed or dusted

with the FLUFFAIR heat setting.

Turn the Control Knob to the number

of minutes you want-from 10 to 70.

The last 5 minutes of this cycle are

without heat - a cool-down time. This

helps’ make the load easier to

handle.

Drying tips

The dryer does not heat when the

Control Knob is set on FLUFFAIR. This

setting can be used to fluff bedding,

plastic tablecloths, foam rubber

pillows, stuffed toys, sneakers, etc.

1. Turn the Control Knob to the number

of minutes you want in FLUFFAIR.

2. Push the STARTButton.

FINISH GUARD’ Setting

When you are unable to unload

the dryer as soon as it stops, wrinkles

can form.

If you don’t open the door within 5

minutes after the dryer stops, FINISH

GUARD takes over automatically to

protect the load. You don’t have to set

the Control Knob for FINISH GUARD.

FINISH GUARD tumbles the load,

without heat, every 5 minutes for up to

40 minutes. This tumbling rearranges

and fluffs the load to help avoid the

wrinkles that set in when the load

remains in the drum.

Automatic DRY-MISER”’

Control

-The thermostat senses the air

temperature. The dryer automatically

shuts off when the selected dryness

is reached.

Gentle Heat

The dryer automatically reduces

the heat settings in HEAVY HIGH and

PERMIT PRESSMED cycles. During

the last few minutes of each of

these cycles the dryer temperature

gradually reduces to a lower heat

setting. This helps prevent

overdrying. 7

Drying times Mixed loads

Drying times will vary depending on:

amount of moisture in the clothes.

type and weight of the fabric.

size of the load.

. room temperature around the dryer.

temperature of the wash rinse water.

amount of lint in the lint screen.

dryer temperature selection.

See your “Dryer Guide” for

more information.

End-of-cycle signal

When drying a load with different

kinds and weights of fabrics, use the

cycle suggested for the lightest fab-

rics. When the dryer stops, remove dry

items and reset the control.

To reduce wrinkling, take the load

from dryer as soon as tumbling stops.

This is important for permanent press,

knits and synthetic fabrics.

The dryer sounds a signal to let you know when

the cycle is finished. The signal cannot be turned

off and is not adjustable.

The signal is helpful when you are drying per-

manent press, synthetics and other items that

should be taken out as soon as the dryer stops.

g@i!m&

Lint signal

Clean lint screen before each load. If you

neglect to clean your lint screen, the signal will

sound. The (whistle tone] signal lets you know

the air flow is being restricted. Restricted air flow

reduces drying efficiency.

Turn off the dryer and clean the lint screen as

shown on page 9.

Lint screen

Clean the lint screen before each load. A screen blocked by lint can

increase drying time and may be a FIREHAZARD.

Open the lid and pull the lint screen

straight out. ROLL the lint off the screen with

your fingers.

DO NOT rinse or wash the screen.

Push the screen firmly back into place

Lint removal

Lint can gather inside the dryer and create a FIRE HAZARD. This lint should

be removed at least every 2 to 3 years, or more often, depending on

dryer usage.

ELECTRIC DRYERS GAS DRYERS

Cleaning should be done only by a qualified person.

1. Remove back panel (electric)

or lower access panel (gas).

2. Avoid damaging wires,

thermostats, funnel or igniter.

3. Remove lint from shaded area -

see art - with a soft brush or

vacuum cleaner.

4. Replace panel; reconnect and

re-level dryer. 9

Caring for your dryer

Remove loose and sharp objects

from pockets and cuffs before drying -

pins, buckles, etc. Close metal

zippers.

Wipe off all spills with a damp, soft

cloth. Spills allowed to remain may

dull or damage the finish.

Never leave wet or damp laundry

in your dryer.

Sharp or heavy objects should

never be put on or in the dryer.

Check pockets for bolts, nuts etc.

Some pretreatment products can

damage dials, consoles and finish.

Do not use these products on or near

your dryer.

Cleaning drye; interior

Garments which contain unstable

dyes, such as denim blue jeans or

brightly colored cotton items, may

discolor the dryer interior. If the

interior is discolored, clean with

one of the following methods to

avoid staining later load items.

Powdered laundry detergent and

very warm water

Make a paste with detergent and

very warm water. Apply paste to

a soft cloth and scrub area until

all excess dye is removed. Wipe

thoroughly with a damp cloth.

Tumble a load of rags. -OR-

liquid spray household cleaner

Spray on stained area. Rub with

a cloth until all excess dye is

removed. Tumble a load of rags.
