OPERATING YOUR DRYER
WARNING – To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons
when using your appliance read the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
before operating this appliance.
Drying Selections. Select the proper heat on the Fabric
Care selector for your load.
NOTE: Drying times will vary according to the type of
heat used (Electric, Natural gas or LP gas), size of load,
types of fabrics, wetness of clothes, and condition of
exhaust ducts.
*Fluff-No Heat option can be used with an automatic cycle, but for best
performance it is recommended to be used with a timed cycle.
Cycle Selector. Turn the Cycle Selector to the desired
cycle setting. The selector may be turned in either
direction. Select for preferred energy setting.
Press Guard Cycle. (Available on some models.)
The Press Guard cycle operates only with the
Automatic Permanent Press and Automatic Cottons
cycles. Turn the Press Guard knob to SET to press the
pad to select, and turn the Cycle Selector Dial to the
desired amount of heated drying time.
To minimize the wrinkle setting in clothes, the Press
Guard cycle provides from 15 to 20 minutes of no-heat
tumbling after the clothes are dry.
Use the End Cycle Signal to remind you to remove the
dried laundry.
End Cycle Signal. (Available on some models.)
Set End Cycle Signal, if desired. This signal operates
with any cycle on some models. The control can be set
anywhere between OFF and LOUD, depending on the
desired sound level. The signal will start to sound just
before the end of the cycle to remind you to remove the
clothes. To stop the signal while sounding, turn the
signal control to OFF or advance the Cycle Selector to
OFF.
This signal should always be used when drying
polyester knits or permanent press items which should
be removed as soon as the dryer stops to help prevent
setting of wrinkles.
If the signal is on and you choose the Extra Care Cycle,
you will hear the signal sound on and off throughout
the cycle. This reminds you that the clothes are dry.
Start. Turn the Start knob or press the Push to Start
button to start the dryer. (Opening the door during
operation stops the dryer. To restart, close the door and
follow above directions.)
