CHECK YOUR VENT SYSTEM FOR GOOD AIR FLOW

Good air flow

Along with heat, dryers require good air flow to efficiently dry laundry. Proper venting will reduce your drying times and improve your energy savings. See “Installation Instructions”.

The venting system attached to the dryer plays a big role in good air flow.

Service calls caused by improper venting are not covered by the warranty and will be paid by the customer, regardless of who installed the dryer.

Maintain good air flow by:

nCleaning your lint screen before each load.

nReplace plastic or foil vent material with 4" (102 mm) diameter heavy, rigid vent material.

nUse the shortest length of vent possible.

nUse no more than four 90° elbows in a vent system; each bend and curve reduces air flow.

GoodBetter

nRemove lint and debris from the exhaust hood.

nRemove lint from the entire length of the vent system at least every 2 years. When cleaning is complete, be sure to follow the Installation Instructions supplied with your dryer for final product check.

nClear away items from in front of the dryer.

Use Sensor cycles for better fabric care and energy savings

Use the Sensor Cycles to provide the most energy savings and enhanced fabric care from the dryer. During Sensor Cycles, drying air temperature and moisture level are sensed in the load. This sensing occurs throughout the drying cycle and the dryer shuts off when the load reaches the selected dryness. Use the NORMAL DRY dryness level to provide optimal energy savings.

With Timed Cycles, the dryer runs the amount of time set and sometimes results in shrinkage, wrinkling, and static due to over-drying. Use Timed Cycles for the occasional damp load that needs a little more drying time or when using the drying rack.

Tips for getting the best performance from your steam dryer

nResults may vary depending on fabric. 100% cotton garments with wrinkle-free finish may yield better results than those without. 100% cotton items may require additional touching up after the Steam Cycle.

nUse of fabric softener sheet is not recommended with Steam Cycles. It may cause temporary staining on clothes.

nIt is not recommended to use Steam Cycles for items that have been starched. Wash any starched or new garments prior to using a Steam Cycle.

nThe Auto Refresh Cycle is best for smoothing out wrinkles and reducing odors from loads consisting of small numbers of dry items of wrinkle-free cotton, cotton-polyester blend, common knits, and synthetic garments.

nThe Custom Refresh Cycle (on some models) is best for smoothing out wrinkles from clothes that have been left in the dryer too long. For best results, do not overload the dryer.
