OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Normal Operating Sounds

You may or may not hear the following sounds from your new dryer:

A. SUSPENSION ROLLERS The dryer drum is supported by a set of suspension rollers. At times there may be a thumping or rolling sound when the dryer starts. This may happen if the dryer has not been in use for a period of time, or after a heavy load has remained in the dryer drum for an extended period, creating a temporary fl at spot on the edge of the roller. The noise should dissipate as the dryer operates and the fl at spots smooth out.

B. AIR FLOW SYSTEM Your dryer is equipped with a high volume air handling system. In some installations there may be some sounds associated with air movement throughout the dryer, including the air duct, blower, and exhaust system. This is normal and can vary with load size and type.

C. GAS VALVE (Gas models only.) The fl ow of gas is controlled by electric solenoids. During operation there may be a clicking sound as the valve opens and closes to control the gas fl ow.

D. GAS BURNER (Gas models only.) When the burner is operating, there may be sounds generated as the air fl ow mixes with the gas fl ame. This noise is normal and will only occur when the gas is ignited in the combustion tube.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Operating Your Dryer

WARNING

To reduce the risk of fi re, electric shock or injury to persons, read the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS in this Use and Care Guide before operating your dryer.

1 Prepare load for drying.

• Dry items of similar fabric, weight and construction in the same load.

• Separate dark items from light-colored items. Separate items that shed lint from those that attract lint.

• Check for stains which may not have been removed in washing. Repeat stain removal process and wash again before drying. Dryer heat may permanently set some stains.

• Place delicate or small items in a mesh bag.

• Be sure buckles, buttons and trim are heatproof and won’t damage the drum fi nish. Close zippers, button buttons,

(Mesh bag not included.) fasten hooks and Velcro ® -like fasteners. Tie strings and sashes to prevent snagging and tangling.

2 Check that the lint fi lter is clean and in place.

3 Load the dryer and close the door.

• Load items loosely. The average wet load will fi ll the drum 1/3 to 1/2 full. Items need room to tumble freely for even drying and less wrinkling.

• If desired, place a dryer fabric softener sheet on top of the load at the beginning of the cycle.

• To save energy and time and avoid uneven drying and wrinkling, do not overload the dryer.

• When drying large items, dry only two or three items at a time. Fill out the load with small and medium sized items.

• For delicate or very small loads, add two or three similar items to improve tumbling action.

4 Select the appropriate cycle and settings for each load.

• See Dryer Operating Instructions on following pages.

5 Start the dryer.

• Close the dryer door. The dryer will not operate with the door open.

• Turn the cycle selector knob or turn any option knob to “wake” the dryer. You will hear three beeps to indicate dryer is ready to operate.

• After making your selections, press START to begin the cycle. You will hear one beep.

• To add or remove items when the dryer is running, press the pause button to pause the cycle and open the door. Opening the door with a cycle running will also pause the cycle. You will hear two beeps.

Allow the drum to come to a complete stop before reaching inside. Add or remove the item, close the door and push the START button again, continuing the current cycle.

• To cancel a running cycle, press the CANCEL button.

• A signal will sound at the end of the cycle if the chime option has been selected.

CAUTION

Do not operate dryer without lint fi lter in place.

NOTE

If drying a single large or bulky item, such as a comforter, remove the item part way through the cycle and turn it “inside out” to maximize drying effectiveness.

Place item back in dryer and re-start cycle.

6 When the cycle ends, remove items immediately and hang or fold.

IMPORTANT

Clean the lint fi lter after every load.

CARE AND CLEANING

WARNING

FIRE HAZARD

A clothes dryer produces combustible lint. The dryer must be connected to an outdoors exhaust. Regularly inspect the outdoor exhaust opening and remove any accumulation of lint around the opening and in the surrounding area.

IMPORTANT

Clean the lint fi lter after every load.

IMPORTANT

Do not store or place laundry products on top of dryer at any time. They can damage the fi nish or controls.

WARNING

To reduce risk of fi re or serious injury to persons or property, comply with the basic warnings listed in the

Important Safety Instructions and those listed below.

• Before cleaning the dryer interior, unplug the electrical power cord to avoid electrical shock hazards.

• Do not use any type spray cleanser when cleaning the dryer interior. Hazardous fumes or electrical shock could occur.

INSIDE

• Clean the lint fi lter after every load. Lint build-up on the fi lter restricts air fl ow, which causes longer drying times. The fi lter is located at the bottom of the door opening. Remove by pulling straight up. Remove the lint and replace the fi lter.

• Occasionally a waxy build-up may form on the lint fi lter and/or moisture sensing bars from using dryer-added fabric softener sheets. To remove this build-up, wash them with warm, soapy water. Dry the fi lter thoroughly and replace. Do not operate the dryer without the lint fi lter in place.

• If the dryer drum becomes stained from noncolorfast fabrics, clean the drum with a damp cloth and a mild liquid household cleanser. Remove cleanser residue before drying the next load.

• Every 18 months an authorized servicer should clean the dryer cabinet interior and exhaust duct. These areas can collect lint and dust over time. An excessive amount of lint build-up could result in ineffi cient drying and possible fi re hazard.

OUTSIDE

• Clean the cabinet with mild soap and water. Never use harsh, gritty or abrasive cleansers.

• If the cabinet becomes stained, clean with diluted chlorine bleach (1 part bleach to 8 parts water). Rinse several times with clear water.

• Remove glue residue from tape or labels with a mixture of warm water and mild detergent. Or, touch residue with the sticky side of the tape or label.

• Before moving the dryer, place a strip of cardboard or thin fi berboard under the front leveling legs to prevent damage to the fl oor.
