utes. This helps make the load easier

to handle.

press, knits and other synthetic 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 * 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 60.

See your “Dryer Guide” for more

information.

Mixed loads

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.

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 otten, depending

on dryer usage.

ELECTRIC DRYERS

Cleaning should be done only by a qualified person.

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 dryer interior

Garments which contain unstable

dyes, such as denim blue jeans or

brightly colored cotton items, may

discolor the dryer interior, Ifthe

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

a cloth until all excess dye is

removed. Tumble a load of rags.

If you need service or assistance,

we suggest you follow these five steps:

Before calling for

assistance...

Performance problems often result

from little things you can find and fix

yourself without tools of any kind.

IF YOUR DRYER DOES NOT RUN:

Is the power supply cord plugged

into a live circuit with the proper

voltage?

Is the door closed tightly?

Did you push the STARTButton?

Have you checked your home’s

main fuses or circuit breaker box?

IF YOUR DRYER DOES NOT HEAE

The AIR setting is without heat.

The last minutes of heat settings are

without heat.

Is the gas turned on? If not, turn the

Control Knob to OFF.Turn on gas. Wait

5 minutes. Reset control and start.

An electric dryer uses a circuit

breaker or 2 fuses. If one fuse is

blown, the dryer may run, but not

heat.

IF DRYING TIME SEEMS TOO LONG:

Is the lint screen clean? See page 8

of this book for cleaning instructions.

See page 7 of this book and your

“Dryer Guide:’
