Amana W10572490A - SP manual Cycle Status Indicators, Additional Features, To use the drying rack

CYCLE STATUS INDICATORS

The Cycle Status Indicators show the progress of a cycle.

Check Vent

This indicator will show the status of airflow through the dryer for the dryer’s life. During the sensing phase at the beginning of the cycle, the Check Vent light will come on if a blocked vent or low airflow issue is detected. This light will stay on for the entire cycle, but will turn off at the end

of the cycle. This feature is available during Automatic cycles only. For more information on maintaining good airflow, see “Check Your Vent System for Good Airflow.”

NOTE: If there are other error issues during a cycle, the Check Vent indicator will not light up. See “Troubleshooting” section.

Efficiency Monitor

The Efficiency Monitor allows you to see how the settings you select affect your energy usage within the cycle chosen. The Efficiency Monitor indicator may change, depending on the options and modifiers selected.

Wet

The load is still wet and/or the cycle just started.

Cool Down

The dryer has finished drying with heat, and is now tumbling the load without heat to cool it down and reduce wrinkling.

Done

This will indicate that the selected cycle has ended and the load may be removed from the dryer.

USING THE DRYING RACK

To obtain a drying rack for your dryer, order by calling 1-877-944-7566. You will need your model and serial number and the purchase date. Remove and discard any packing material before use.

Use the Drying Rack for items that you do not want to tumble dry, such as sweaters and tennis shoes. When you use the drying rack, the drum continues to turn, but the rack remains stationary.

The drying rack is intended for use with the Manual Dry/ Time Dry cycles only. The drying rack cannot be used with Automatic cycles.

3.Place wet items on top of the drying rack. Allow space around items for air to circulate. The drying rack does not move, but the drum will rotate; be sure to leave adequate clearance between items and the inside of the dryer drum. Make sure items do not hang over the edges or between drying rack grille.

4.Close the door.

5.Select a Time Dry/Air Only, or Low Temperature cycle. Items containing foam, rubber, or plastic must be dried on a clothesline or by using the Air Only setting.
