Frigidaire 137153500A manual Cycle Selection, Temperature Selection, Energy Saving Tips

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Cycle Selection

Turn cycle selector clockwise to desired cycle and setting.

For best results

Follow the fabric care label instructions on items to be dried.

Each cycle ends with a cool down period. The heat automatically turns off and the load continues to tumble during the cool down period. This reduces wrinkling and makes items easier to handle during unloading.

Drying time varies depending on size and dampness of load and fabric type. Room temperature and humidity, type of installation and electrical voltage or gas pressure can also affect drying time.

AUTO DRY NORMAL

This cycle is best for towels and heavy duty items. Drying time is determined automatically at the temperature selection of your choice.

•Whites high heat is suggested for towels and heavy duty items.

AUTO DRY CASUAL

This cycle is best for permanent press. Drying time is determined automatically at the temperature selection of your choice.

•Casual-medium heat is suggested for permanent press items.

AUTO DRY DELICATES

This cycle is best for knit and delicate items. Drying time is determined automatically at the temperature selection of your choice.

•Delicates-low heat is suggested for knit and delicate items.

Occasionally a load may seem too damp or overdried at the end of the cycle. To increase drying time for similar loads in the future, set the cycle selector on the indicator line to the left of the normal, casual, or delicates setting. For loads requiring less drying time, set the cycle selector on the indicator line to the right.

AUTO DRY DAMP DRY

This setting is best for items you wish to partially dry before hanging or ironing. Select the temperature setting most suitable for the load.

WRINKLE RELEASE

•If the dried load was not removed promptly at the end of the cycle, turn the cycle selector to the wrinkle release

setting and press start. The timer will not automatically advance into the wrinkle release cycle.

•Wrinkle release can be used independently for up to 15 minutes of unheated tumbling to help remove wrinkles from items that are already dry. Turn selector knob to wrinkle release and start dryer. It is not necessary to set temperature controls.

AIR FLUFF NO HEAT

This cycle provides up to 20 minutes of tumbling without heat. Use air fluff no heat to dry items containing feathers or down, foam rubber, plastics, or similarly textured, rubber- like materials, to freshen clothing, pillows or blankets, or to dust draperies.

TIMED DRY

This cycle provides approximately 80 minutes of drying time at the temperature selection of your choice.

Temperature Selection

Always follow directions on fabric care labels.

- FIRE HAZARD - To avoid fire hazard, do not use heat to dry items containing feathers or down, foam rub- ber, plastics, or similarly textured, rubber-like materials. Use the Timed Dry cycle and the Air Fluff/No Heat setting.

Select the temperature setting most suitable for each load. The whites-high heat, casual-medium heat, and delicates-low heat temperature settings may be used with any cycle setting. The air fluff no heat setting can be used only in the Timed Dry cycle. Air fluff no heat setting tumbles the load without heat. Use air fluff to freshen clothing, pillows or blankets, or

to dust draperies.

Energy Saving Tips

•Keep the lint screen clean and exhaust the dryer correctly.

•Sort laundry properly and select proper temperature and cycle settings. Choose an automatic dry cycle whenever possible for accurate drying time.

•Dry only full loads. Single items and small loads usually take longer to dry.

•Avoid overloading, adding wet items to a partially dry load, and overdrying.

•Dry one load after another to take advantage of a warm dryer.

•Opening the door needlessly causes warm air to escape, which prolongs drying time.

•If possible, use the dryer on low humidity days.

•Install the dryer in an area where the room temperature is at least 45°F (7°C).
