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.
2. Turn the Cycle Control knob to the recommended
cycle for the type of load
being dried, as described
in the “Cycle descrip-
tions” section.
•
Use the Energy
Preferred Automatic
Setting (
*
) to dry
most loads.
NOTE: On some
models, the Temperature
selector is part of the
Cycle Control knob.
3. If your dryer has a Temperature selector, set it to
the recommended setting for the type of fabric
being dried. The cycle descriptions on the
following pages include temperature setting
suggestions.
4. (OPTIONAL STEP) Your dryer may have an On/Off
Extra Tumble selector. The Extra Tumble feature
protects your clothes from wrinkling when you do
not remove them from the dryer as soon as it
stops.
•
Set the Extra Tumble selector to On to tumble
the load without heat every few minutes up to
45 minutes (on some models) after the drying
cycle ends. On some models, you can select
30 min. or 90 min. of extra tumble time.
•
A signal will sound every few minutes while
Extra Tumble is running if the End of Cycle
Signal feature is set to On.
•
Set the Extra Tumble selector to Off if you do
not want to run this feature.
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.
