Drying times Mixed loads

Drying times will vary depending on:

l amount of moisture in the clothes.

l type and weight of the fabric.

l size of the load.

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.

l room temperature around the dryer.

l temperature of the wash rinse water.

0 amount of lint in the lint screen.

l dryer temperature selection.

See your “Dryer Guide” for

more information.

Toreduce wrinkling, take the load

from dryer as soon as tumbling stops.

This is important for permanent press,

knits and synthetic fabrics.

End-of-cycle signal

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.

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 How is being restricted. Restricted air flow

reduces drying efficiency.

Turn off the dryer and clean the lint screen as

w shown on page 9.
