Drying tips

FLUFF AIR

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.

TUMBLE PRESS" Setting

The TUMBLEPRESSsetting removes

wrinkles from dry clothing such as

items that may have been packed

in a suitcase, closet, or items not

removed from the dryer.

t. Turn the Control Knob to the number

of minutes you want in FLUFFAIR.

2. Push the STARTButton.

Electronic DRY-MISER"

Control

An electronic sensor determines

the amount of moisture in the

clothes and automatically shuts off

when the proper dryness is reached.

t. Set Control Knob to TUMBLEPRESS.

2. Set Temperature Selector to PERM'T

PRESS/MED.

3. Push STARTButton,

The load will tumble in heated air

for 15 minutes. The heat shuts off and

the dryer continues to tumble the load

for 5 more minutes.

For best results, TUMBLEPRESSonly a

few items at a time. Put them on hang-

ers or fold them as soon as the dryer

stops,

Gentle Heat

The dryer automatically reduces

the heat settings in HEAVY HIGH and

PERM'TPRESSMED 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.

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.

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.

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 ishelpful 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. Ifyou

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
