Drying Procedures

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.
(Mesh bag not included.)
Clean the lint fi lter after
every load.
A thermal limiter switch automatically turns off the motor
in the unlikely event of an overheated situation (electric
dryers only). A service technician must replace the thermal
limiter switch after correcting the fault.
Failure to comply with these warnings could result in seri-
ous personal injuries.
The instructions appearing in this Use and Care
Guide are not meant to cover every possible condition and
situation that may occur. Common sense and caution must
be practiced when installing, operating and maintaining any
appliance.
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; 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 wrin-
kling.
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 im-
prove tumbling action.
4.
Select the appropriate cycle and settings for each load.
See
Operating Instructions for your specifi c model.
5.
Start the cycle.
To add or remove items when the dryer is running, open the door. The
dryer will stop when the door is opened. Allow the drum to come to a
complete stop before reaching inside.
Close the door and press Start to resume the cycle.
6.
When the cycle ends, remove items immediately and hang or fold.
