INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING THE TUMBLE DRYER

OPENING THE DOOR

The tumble dryer has a magnetic door catch. To open it, press firmly on the opening side and release (Fig. 1). The door should pop open.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

Below are some general operation instructions. For more detailed information, refer to pages 10 and 11.

1.Make sure the lint filter is free of lint (see page 11).

2.Before placing the items in the dryer, sort the laundry by type of fabric (see below) and care label instructions (see page 9).

3.Make sure nothing is in the garment pockets that could damage the clothes or the machine. Close zippers and hooks to prevent snagging.

4.Load the laundry into the dryer.

5.Close the door securely.

6.Press the On/Off button to turn on the power to the machine (see page 10).

7.Set the Program knob to the desired program (see page 11).

8.Set the Normal/Delicate button to the desired setting (see page 11).

Drying times will vary due to the amount of laundry in the machine, moisture content, type of fabric, air temperature and humidity.

PREPARING THE LAUNDRY

For best drying results, clothes should be sorted properly. Most importantly, you should follow the care label instructions (see page 9). Below are some suggestions on how to best sort your laundry for drying:

Permanent press items should be dried together. For the most wrinkle-free results when drying permanent press items, you should fill the machine only half full. These items also should be removed promptly from the dryer and hung up or folded right away.

Dry heavy fabrics together and lightweight fabrics together.

Dry fabrics that shed lint (chenille, terry cloth, etc.) separately from fabrics that collect lint (synthetics, velveteen, corduroy, etc.).

Separate non-colorfast fabrics from light-colored items.

If the care label says "Wash Separately," the fabric is likely to lose color (excess dye) for the first few washings. To minimize the possibility of the dye transferring to white or lighter colored items, dry new colored garments with items of similar color or alone. Bright reds and oranges on cottons are the dyes most likely to transfer colors.

NOTE: Refer to “Important Safety Instructions” on page 3 for a list of specific materials that should never be put in a tumble dryer.

IMPORTANT:

Metal items (coins, nails, etc.) left in pockets, sharp buckles or similar items could damage the drum. Remove any items of this kind before loading the dryer.

FABRIC SOFTENERS AND DRYER SHEETS

We recommend using a liquid fabric softener in the washer’s rinse cycle. We do not recommend using fabric softener sheets in the dryer. Over time, the chemicals on these sheets can build up inside the lint filter and clog the holes that circulate the air.
