Drying tips

Drying times

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.

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 help reduce wrinkling, take

the load from the dryer as soon

as tumbling stops. This is very

important for permanent press,

knits and other synthetic

fabrics.

DO NOT OVERDRY. Overdrying

can cause shrinkage, static

cling, and can damage some

fabrics.

Lint screen

Clean the lint screen betore 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 GAS DRYERS

Cleaning should be done only by a qualified person.

Remove back panel (electric)

or lower access panel (gas].

Avoid damaging wires,

thermostats, funnel or igniter.

Remove lint from shaded area -

see art-with a soft brush or

vacuum cleaner.

Replace panel; reconnect and

re-level dryer. 7

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

Spray on stained area. Rub with

a cloth until all excess dye is

removed. Tumble a load of rags.

Vacation care

Unplug power cord or turn off

electrical power,

For gas dryers, close gas valve.

Clean lint screen.

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 plugged into a

live circuit with the proper voltage?

Is the door closed tightly?

Did you push the STARTButton?

IF YOUR DRYER DOES NOT HEAT:

The AIR setting is without heat.

Is the gas turned on? If not, turn the

Control Knob to OFF. Turn on gas.

L4:;;, 5 minutes. Reset controls and

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 LONG:

Isthe lint screen clean? See page 7

of this book for cleaning instructions.

See page 6 of this book and your

“Dryer Guide!’

Have you checked your home’s

main fuses or circuit breaker box?
