•Load size.

•Type of fabric, washer and spin speed will determine moisture in the fabric.

•Heat and moisture in the room. Damp air coming into the dryer will increase drying time.

CARE AND CLEANING

Cleaning

•Ordinarily, dryer cylinder will need no care.

•Wipe dryer cabinet as needed. If deter- gent, bleach or other washing products have been spilled on the dryer, wipe immediately. Some products will cause permanent damage if spilled on the cabinet.

•Do not allow sharp or rough objects to lean against the dryer. The finish could be damaged.

•Use only a damp or sudsy cloth for cleaning the control panel. Some spray prewash products may harm the finish on the control panel.

How to Remove Ball Point Pen Ink Marks from the Dryer Drum

•If the ink stain is fresh, place dry rags in the dryer. Using the hottest heat set- ting, run the dryer for one hour to absorb the ink.

•If the stain is not fresh, apply house- hold spray or cream cleaner to a soft cloth, and rub the stain. Then, place wet rags in the dryer. Using the hottest heat setting, run the dryer for one hour to remove any cleaner residue.

Lubrication

All moving parts are sealed in a perma- nent supply of lubricant or are equipped with oilless bearings. Additional lubrication will not be necessary.

Exhaust system

•The exhaust duct should be inspected after one year of use and cleaned if necessary. Inspect and clean exhaust duct every one to two years as required thereafter.

•The weather hood should be checked frequently to make sure the dampers move freely, dampers are not pushed in and that nothing has been set against them.

•Keep dryer area clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids.

•Do not obstruct the flow of combustion (gas dryers) and ventilation air.
