Operating Tips
Clean the Lint Filter
•After each load.
•To shorten drying time.
•To operate more energy efficiently.
NOTE: Do not operate the dryer without the lint filter in place.
Load the Dryer Properly
•Place only one washload in the dryer at a time.
•Mixed loads of heavy and lightweight clothes will dry differently. Lightweight clothes will dry, while heavy clothes may be damp.
•Add one or more similar items to the dryer when only one or two articles need drying. This improves the tumbling action and drying efficiency.
•Overloading restricts tumbling action, resulting in uneven drying as well as excessive wrinkling of some fabrics.
•When drying large, bulky items such as a blanket or comforter, it may be necessary to reposition the load during the cycle to ensure even drying.
