USING YOUR DRYER

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS before operating this dryer.

Before using your dryer, wipe the dryer drum with a damp cloth to remove dust from storing and shipping.

1. Clean the lint screen

Clean the lint screen before each load. Pull the lint screen straight up. Roll lint off the screen with your fingers. Do not rinse or wash screen to remove lint. Push the lint screen firmly back into place.

For additional cleaning information, see “Cleaning the lint screen.”

2. Load the dryer

Place laundry in the dryer. Close the door.

NOTE: Your model may have a different door than the one shown. Some models have drop down doors.

Do not tightly pack the dryer; clothes should be able to tumble freely.

3. Select cycle

Select the desired cycle for your load. See “Cycle Guide” for more information about each cycle.

AUTOMATIC DRY Cycles

You can select a different dryness level, depending on your load, by turning the knob to dryness level.

Selecting Very Dry, ENERGY PREFERRED, or Less Dry automatically adjusts the dryness level at which the dryer will shut off. Once a dry level is set, it cannot be changed without stopping the cycle.

AUTOMATIC DRY cycles give the best drying in the shortest time. Drying time varies based on fabric type, load size, and dryness setting.

NOTE: Very Dry removes more load moisture. ENERGY PREFERRED is used for a starting point for AUTOMATIC DRY cycles. Choose ENERGY PREFERRED (*) for optimal energy savings. Less Dry removes less moisture and is used for loads you may want to put on a hanger to complete drying.
