36 Operating Instructions

Operating the dryer

WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or injury to persons, read the Important Safety
Information in this Use & Care Guide before operating your dryer.
WARNING
DO NOT operate dryer without lint filter
in place.
STEPS
1. Prepare
load for
drying.
2. Check that
the lint filter
is clean and
in place.
3. Load the
dryer and
close the
door.
TIPS
• Dry items of similar fabric, weight and
construction in the same load.
• Separate dark items from light-colored
items. Separate items that shed lint from
those that attract lint.
• Check for stains which may not have been
removed in washing. Repeat stain removal
process and wash again before drying. Dryer
heat may permanently set some stains.
• Place delicate, rubber coated, or small items
in a mesh bag (not included).
• Be sure buckles, buttons and trim are
heatproof and won't damage the drum
finish. Close zippers; fasten hooks and loop
fasteners. Tie strings and sashes to prevent
snagging and tangling.
• Load items loosely. The average wet load
will fill the drum 1/3 to 1/2 full. Items need
room to tumble freely for even drying and
less wrinkling.
• If desired, place a dryer fabric softener sheet
on top of the load at the beginning of the
cycle.
• When drying large items, dry only two or
three items at a time. Fill out the load with
smaller items.
• For delicate or very small loads, add two
or three similar items to improve tumbling
action.
WARNING
Clean the lint filter after every load.
IMPORTANT
DO NOT machine
wash items
containing fiberglass.
Small particles of
fiberglass left in
drum may transfer
to fabrics in other
loads and cause
skin irritation and/or
damage to fabrics.
DO NOT wash
water resistant and
water repellent type
clothing or other
materials.
DO NOT operate
dryer without lint filter
in place.
DO NOT overload
the dryer. To save
energy, time and
avoid uneven drying
and wrinkling avoid
overloading the dryer.
DO NOT over-dry.
Over-drying can
cause wrinkles,
shrinkage, lint, and
a build up of static
electricity.
