Before Drying...
Energy Saving Tips
• Make sure the lint filter is
cleaned after each load.
• Do not overload the dryer.
• Do not overdry items.
• Remove items to be ironed
while still damp.
Large loads of similar fabrics
dry the most efficiently.
However, dry permanent
press in smaller loads to
prevent wrinkling.
• Use the correct FABRIC
SELECTOR setting for the
type of fabric being dried.
• Locateyour dryer so the
exhaust duct is as short and
straight as possible.
• Do not open the door during
the drying cycle.
• Plan to do your laundry on
low humidity days; your
clothes will dry faster.
Dry multiple loads of clothes
one right after another so
dryer interior does not have to
be reheated for each load.
Helps and Hints
--_ WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire,
explosion, serious injury or
death, clothes which have
traces of any flammable
substances such as
cooking oil, machine oil,
flammable chemicals,
thinner, etc. must not be put
into the dryer.
Regular or *Untreated Clothes
A properly sorted wash load is
generally a dryer load. In both
washing and drying, the bulk or
volume of clothes, ratherthan
pounds, willdetermine the
load size. The dryer cylinder is
large and is designed to dry a
large or average loadat maximum
efficiency. DO NOT OVERLOAD
THE DRYER -- MAXIMUM LOAD:
Dryer cylinder one third to one half
full of wet clothes.
Loads consisting of several small
pieces only, such as knit shortsor
diapers, do not tumble well and
may require longer drying time
which could result in excessive
wrinkling. Add several towels to aid
tumbling. Large and small items
together make the best load for the
dryer.
For the most even drying, fabrics
in a load should be of similar
weight. If mixed loads are dried,
remove the lighter weight fabrics
when they are dry. Avoid
overdrying to prevent harshness of
fabdcs, wrinkling, and possible
shrinkage.
Clothing loads must be cooled
properly at the end of the drying
cycle. Do not remove them from
dryer until it has gone through
cool-down and the cycle is
completed.
*Treated clothes are those items
that will be labeled =FLAME
RETARDANT," =SCOTCH-
GUARD", TM etc. Follow the CARE
LABELS on these garments for the
proper washing and drying.

Permanent Press and Synthetics
These toads will require the
following special treatment to get
the best results from their
=no-iron" properties.
Static electricity may cause
garments of synthetic fibers
(as in lingerie) to cling
together, especially if they are
overdried. The use of a liquid
fabric softener in the rinse
water of the washer will soften
clothes and reduce static
electricity.
Do not wash or dry clothes
that shed lint in the same load
with permanent press or knit
garments.
Remove permanent press
loads immediately after dryer
stops.
Exhaust System
-- & WARNING
A clothes dryer produces
combustible lint. To reduce
the risk of fire, serious injury
or death, the dryer MUST be
exhausted to the outdoors.
Do not use plastic or thin foil
flexible ducting.
The necessary suggestions
and directions for installation
and proper exhausting are
given inthe INSTALLATION
INSTRUCTIONS which are
included with the dryer.
The exhaust duct should be
cleaned periodically to remove
any obstructions.
Check occasionally to make
sure the flapper on the weather
hood moves freely, is not
pushed in and that nothing has
been set against it.Also check
that the flapper is not standing
open. If it isopen, leaves or
even snow could restdct it. Any
restriction of the air from the
dryer will decrease drying
efficiency.
