Starting your dryer

wWARNING

Explosion Hazard

Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away from dryer.

Do not dry anything that has ever had anything flammable on it (even after washing).

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, explosion, or fire.

Before using your dryer, wipe the dryer drum with a damp cloth to remove dust from storing and shipping.

1.Load clothes loosely into the dryer and close the door. Do not pack the dryer; allow space for clothes to tumble freely.

2.Turn the Cycle Control knob to the recommended cycle for the type of load being dried.

Use the Energy Preferred Automatic Setting (*) in the Sensor Dry cycle to dry most heavyweight and mediumweight loads.

wWARNING

Fire Hazard

No washer can completely remove oil.

Do not dry anything that has ever had any type of oil on it (including cooking oils).

Items containing foam, rubber, or plastic must be dried on a clothesline or by using an Air Cycle.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or fire.

3.Set the Temperature selector to the recommended setting for the type of fabric being dried. The cycle descriptions later in this section include tempera- ture setting suggestions.

4.(OPTIONAL STEP) Set the End of Cycle Signal selector to On or to the volume level you prefer (on some models) if you want the dryer to sound a signal when a cycle is finished. The signal is helpful when you are drying permanent press, synthetics, and other items that should be removed from the dryer as soon as it stops.

5.(OPTIONAL STEP) Your dryer may have an On/Off Extra Care selector. The Extra Care fea- ture protects your clothes from wrinkling when you do not remove them from the dryer as soon as it stops.

Set the Extra Care selector to On to tumble the load without heat every few minutes up to 45 minutes after the drying cycle ends.

A signal will sound every few minutes while Extra Care is running if the End of Cycle Signal feature is set On.

Set the Extra Care selector to Off if you do not want to run this feature.
