INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING THE TUMBLE DRYER
1. Make sure the lint filter is free of lint (see page 12).
2. Before placing the items in the dryer, sort the laundry by type of fabric and care label instructions (see
page 9).
3. Make sure nothing is in the garment pockets that could damage the clothes or the machine.
4. Close zippers and hooks to prevent snagging.
5. Load the laundry into the dryer.
6. Close the door securely.
7. Press the On/Off button to turn on the power (see page 10). The indicator light will glow to indicate the
power is on.
8. Set the Normal/Delicate temperature button to the desired setting (see page 10).
9. Set the Program knob to the desired program (see page 10).
10. Wait for a short beep then press the Start button (see page 10).
Drying times will vary due to the amount of laundry in the machine, moisture content, type of fabric, air
temperature and humidity. The length of the vent duct can also affect drying times (see page 5).
PREPARING THE LAUNDRY
For best drying results, clothes should be sorted properly. Most importantly, you should follow the care label
instructions (see page 9). Below are some suggestions on how to best sort your laundry for drying:
n Permanent press items should be dried together. For the most wrinkle-free results when drying permanent
press items, you should fill the machine only half full. These items also should be removed promptly
from the dryer and hung up or folded right away.
n Dry heavy fabrics together and lightweight fabrics together.
n Dry fabrics that shed lint (chenille, terry cloth, etc.) separately from fabrics that collect lint (synthetics,
velveteen, corduroy, etc.).
n Separate non-colorfast fabrics from light-colored items.
n If the care label says "Wash Separately," the fabric is likely to lose color (excess dye) for the first few
washings. To minimize the possibility of the dye transferring to white or lighter colored items, dry new
colored garments with items of similar color or alone. Bright reds and oranges on cottons are the dyes
most likely to transfer colors.
NOTE:
Refer to page 3 for a list of specific materials that should never be put in a tumble dryer.
IMPORTANT:
Metal items (coins, nails, etc.) left in pockets, sharp buckles or similar items could damage the
drum. Remove any items of this kind before loading the dryer.
FABRIC SOFTENER AND DRYER SHEETS
We recommend using a liquid fabric softener in the washer’s rinse cycle. We do not recommend using
fabric softener sheets in the dryer. Over time, the chemicals on these sheets can build up inside the lint filter
and clog the holes that circulate the air.
