Drying Rack Option
The drying rack is useful for drying items you would not necessarily want to tumble dry or that
you would normally line dry (for example, sweaters).
If your model does not have a drying rack, you may be able to purchase one for your model.
To find out whether your model allows drying rack usage and for information on ordering,
please refer to the front page of the manual or contact the dealer from whom you purchased
your dryer.
To use the drying rack
Do not remove the lint screen.
1. Open dryer door.
2. Place drying rack inside dryer drum, positioning the back wire on the ledge of the inner
dryer back panel. Push down on front edge of drying rack to secure over the lint screen.
3. Put the wet items on top of the drying rack. Leave space between the items so air can
reach all the surfaces.
NOTE: Do not allow items to hang over the edge of the drying rack.
4. Close the door.
5. Select a timed drying cycle and temperature (see following chart). Items containing foam,
rubber, or plastic must be dried on a clothesline or by using the Air Dry temperature
setting.
6. You must select a time by pressing the TIME ADJUST up or down buttons. Reset time as
needed to complete drying. Refer to the following table.
7. Press and hold START/PAUSE button (about 1 second).
NOTE: Check the lint screen and remove any lint accumulated from items dried on the drying
rack.
This chart shows examples of items that can be rack dried and the suggested cycle,
temperature setting and drying time. Actual drying time will depend on the amount of
moisture items hold.
*(Reset time to complete drying, if needed.
