• Be sure the exhaust hood at the outside of the home can open and close freely.

 

Use 4” rigid metal exhaust duct.

 

 

• Do not overload. One wash load = One dryer load.

 

 

• Sort heavy items from lightweight items.

 

 

• Check that the washer is draining properly to extract adequate water from the load.

 

 

Check the load for objects such as coins, loose buttons, nails, etc. Remove promptly.

moisture in the load. As the load becomes more dry, the control knob will advance

 

 

 

more quickly.

rest of the load has reached the selected dryness level. This is normal. Select the

 

MORE DRY setting if desired.

 

 

If one heavy item is dried with a lightweight load, such as one towel with sheets, it is

 

 

 

possible that the heavy item will not be completely dry when the rest of the load

 

 

 

has reached the selected dryness level. Sort heavy items from lightweight items for

 

 

best drying results.

 

 

Household odors such as from painting, varnishing, strong cleaners, etc. may enter

the dryer with the surrounding room air. This is normal as the dryer draws the air

 

 

from the room, heats it, pulls it through the tumbler and exhausts it to the outside.

 

 

 

When these odors are present in the air, ventilate the room completely before using

 

 

 

the dryer.
