Use the minimum recommended installation clearances (found in your Installation Instructions) to avoid blocking the flow of combustion and ventilation air. Install your dryer in a well-ventilated room where the temperature is always above 45ºF. Also make sure that your dryer is leveled. Refer to your installation Instructions for more information. wWARNING 2. Use a 4-inch exhaust hood. Smaller hoods increase drying times. 4" 4 in Fire Hazard Use a heavy metal vent. Do not use a plastic vent. Do not use a metal foil vent. Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or fire. If the dryer is not properly installed and vented, it will not be covered under the warranty. NOTE: Service calls caused by improper venting will be paid for by the customer, whether it was a paid installation or self-installed. For paid installation, call the company that installed the vent for adjustment. 1. Do not use plastic vent or flexible metal foil vent. Use 4-inch heavy metal or flexible metal vent. Do not kink or crush flexible metal vent. It must be completely extended to allow adequate exhaust air to flow. Check vent after installation. Refer to 4 in in your Installation Instructions for proper length requirements of vent. 4" 6 4 in 4" 3. The exhaust vent can be routed up, down, left, right, or straight out the back of the dryer. Space requirements are listed in your Installation Instructions. CHECKING YOUR VENT 4. Use the straightest path possible when routing the exhaust vent. Use the fewest number of elbows and turns. Allow room when using elbows or making turns. Bend vent gradually to avoid kinking. 5. Use duct tape to seal all joints. Do not use screws to secure vent. Lint may catch on screws. 6. Clean exhaust vent periodically, depending on use, but at least every 2 years, or when installing your dryer in a new location. • Disconnect vent from the dryer and clean one section at a time until you reach the exhaust hood. • Use the hose attachment on your vacuum, or a pole or wire with a feather duster or rag attached, to clean out lint. Be • sure the flapper on the outside end of vent moves freely. • When cleaning is complete, be sure to follow the Installation Instructions supplied with your dryer for final product check. 7 USING YOUR DRYER STARTING YOUR DRYER wWARNING Explosion Hazard Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away from dryer. Do not dry anything that has ever had anything flammable on it (even after washing). Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, explosion, or fire. Before using your dryer, wipe the dryer drum with a damp cloth to remove dust from storing and shipping. 1. Load clothes loosely into the dryer and close the door. Do not pack the dryer; allow space for clothes to tumble freely. wWARNING Fire Hazard No washer can completely remove oil. Do not dry anything that has ever had any type of oil on it (including cooking oils). Items containing foam, rubber, or plastic must be dried on a clothesline or by using an Air Cycle. Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or fire. 3. On models with a separate Fabric/Temp selector, choose the recommended setting for the type of fabric being dried. The cycle descriptions on pages 10-12 include temperature setting suggestions. 4. (OPTIONAL STEP) On some models, the End of 2. Turn the Cycle Control knob to the recommended cycle for the type of load being dried, as described on pages 10-12. • Use the Energy Preferred Automatic Setting (*) to dry most heavyweight and mediumweight loads. • On some models, the Temperature selector is part of the Cycle Control knob. 8 Cycle Signal selector is part of the Start button. Set the End of Cycle Signal selector to On if you want the dryer to sound a signal when a cycle is finished. The signal is helpful when you are drying permanent press, synthetics, and other items that should be removed from the dryer as soon as it stops. USING YOUR DRYER STARTING YOUR DRYER (CONT.)

The descriptions include suggested temperature settings and drying times for various loads. Cycle and temperature tips • Use the No Heat Fluff cycle, or line dry rubber, plastic, delicate, and heat-sensitive fabrics (see page 12). • If some types of loads in the cycle descriptions have more than one suggested temperature setting, choose the lowest setting available on your dryer. • The last few minutes of all cycles are without heat to make the load cooler to handle. Drying tips • Make sure you have selected the correct cycle and temperature for your load. • Always follow care label directions when they are available. • Always use fabric softener sheets labeled as dryer safe and follow package instructions carefully. • Remove the load from the dryer as soon as tumbling stops to reduce wrinkling. This is especially important for permanent press, knits, and synthetic fabrics. 9 USING YOUR DRYER CYCLE DESCRIPTIONS The following pages describe the cycles on your dryer. Refer to these pages for help in selecting drying cycles and temperatures. The Cycle Control knob does not move until the load is almost dry. After the cool-down, the knob automatically turns to an Off area and tumbling stops. • Dry most loads using the Energy Preferred Automatic Setting (*). • If the load is drier than you like, select a setting closer to Less Dry the next time you dry a similar load. • If the load is not as dry as you like, complete drying using the Timed Dry cycle. Select a setting closer to Very Dry the next time you dry a similar load. MODEL TEDX640E AUTO SENSE DRYING COOL DOWN (HIGH HEAT) TIMED DRY OFF LESS DRY (LOW HEAT) 30 * VERY DRY * 20 Energy Preferred Automatic Setting 10 COOL DOWN OFF OFF COOL DOWN 20 10 TIMED DRY (HIGH HEAT) 10 20 OFF NO HEAT FLUFF Auto Sense Drying Timed Dry cycles (Automatic cycle) Use one of the Timed Dry cycles to complete drying if some items are damp after Auto Sense Drying. The high heat and low heat Timed Dry cycles are also useful for: • Heavyweight and bulky items, such as bedspreads and work clothes, and large loads that require a long drying time. Set your Cycle Control knob to High heat for 50-70 minutes. (Reset knob as necessary for the time required.) • Lightweight items, such as lingerie, blouses, and knits that require a short drying time. Set your Cycle Control knob to Low heat for 20-30 minutes. The Auto Sense Drying cycle uses the Energy Preferred Automatic Setting (*).

Clean it before starting each load. A screen blocked by lint can increase drying time. To clean: 1. Open the lid and pull the lint screen towards you. Laundry detergents and fabric softeners can cause a residue buildup on the lint screen. This buildup can cause longer drying times for your clothes, or cause the dryer to stop before your load is completely dry. You may be able to see this buildup, or the lint may be falling off the screen because it is clogged. Clean the lint screen with a nylon brush every six months or more frequently if it becomes clogged due to a residue buildup. 2. Roll lint off the screen with your fingers. Do not rinse or wash screen to remove lint. Wet lint is hard to remove. Use the following method: 1. Wet both sides of lint screen with hot water. 2. Wet a nylon brush with hot water and liquid detergent; scrub lint screen with the brush to remove residue buildup. 3. Rinse screen with hot water. 4. Thoroughly dry lint screen with a clean towel; replace in dryer. 3. Push the lint screen firmly back into place and close the lid. IMPORTANT: • Do not run the dryer with the lint screen loose, damaged, blocked, or missing. Doing so can cause overheating and damage to both the dryer and fabrics. • Some towels made of synthetic fibers and natural fibers (polyester and cotton blends) may shed more lint than other towels, causing your dryer’s lint screen to fill up faster. Be sure to remove lint from the lint screen before and after drying new towels. • If lint falls off the screen during removal and ito the dryer, check the exhaust hood and remove the lint (see “Checking Your Vent”). 14 CARING FOR YOUR DRYER LINT SIGNAL On some models, there may be a lint signal (a whistle tone) which indicates excessive lint is present on your lint screen or it has a residue buildup. See page 14. A full lint screen restricts airflow and reduces drying efficiency. When you hear the signal, stop the dryer and clean the lint screen. NOTE: Clean your lint screen before each load. Do not wait for the lint signal. CLEANING THE DRYER INTERIOR Garments which contain unstable dyes, such as denim blue jeans or brightly colored cotton items, may discolor the dryer interior. These stains are not harmful to your dryer and will not stain future loads of clothes. It is helpful to dry unstable dye items inside out to prevent dye transfer. To clean dryer drum: 1. Make a paste with powdered laundry detergent and very warm water. 2. Apply paste to a soft cloth. OR Apply a liquid, non-flammable household cleaner to the stained area and rub with a soft cloth until all excess dye is removed. wWARNING Explosion Hazard Use nonflammable cleaner. Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire. 3. Wipe drum thoroughly with a damp cloth. 4. Tumble a load of clean cloths or towels to dry drum. REMOVING ACCUMULATED LINT FROM INSIDE THE DRYER CABINET Lint can gather inside the dryer and be a fuel for fire. Lint should be removed every 2 years, or more often, depending on dryer usage. Cleaning should be done by a qualified person. 15 CARING FOR YOUR DRYER CHANGING THE DRUM LIGHT The dryer light automatically turns on inside the dryer drum when you open the door. See instructions below to change your drum light. To change drum light: 1. Unplug the dryer or disconnect the electricity 2. leading to the dryer at the main power supply. Open the dryer door. Remove the light bulb cover from the back wall of the dryer by removing the screw located in the lower right corner of the cover. 3. Remove the light bulb by turning it counterclockwise. 16 4. Replace the bulb with a 10-watt appliance 5. bulb only. Replace the light bulb cover. 6. Reconnect power supply.
