Always follow the fabric manufacturers care label when laundering.

Sorting and Loading Hints

As a general mle, if clothes ar e sorted projrerly foi-

the washei; they are soiled properly for the diyer.

Do not add fabric softener sheets once the load has become warm. They may cause fabric softener stains. Bounce^ Fabric Conditioner Dryer Sheets have been approved for use in all GE Dryers when used in accordance with the manufacturers instructions.

Care and Cleaning of the Dryer

The ExteriorrW'ipe or dust any spills or washing compounds with a damp cloth, Diyer control panel and finishes may be damaged by some laundiy pretreatment soil and stain remover products.

The Lint Filter: Cleim the lint filter befor e each use. Moisten )'our finger's and reach into the filter opening. Run your fingers across the filter. Have a Cjualified technician vacuum the lint from the dryer once a ^'ear.

Do not overload. This wastes energy and causes wrinkling. Do not dry the following items: fiberglass items, woolens,

rubber-coated items, plastics, items with plastic trim and

foam-filled Items.

Stainless SteehTo dean stainless steel surfaces, use a dainjr cloth with a mild, non-abrasive cleaner suitable for stainless steel surfaces. Remove the cleaner residue, and then dry with a clean doth.

The Exhaust Duct: Inspect and clean the exhaust

ducting at least once a year to prevent clogging. A partially dogged exhaust can lengthen the drying time.

Follow these steps:

Turn off electrical supply by disconnecting the

Venting the Dryer

For the best diying perfomrance, the diyer needs to be |:>roperly vented. The dryer will use more energy

and run longer if it is not vented to the below specifications. Carefully follow the details on Exhausting in the Installation Instructions.

1 Use only rigid metal 4" diameter ductwork inside the

diyer cabinet. Use only rigid metal or flexible metal 4"

diameter ductwork for exhausting to the outside. 1 Do not use plastic or other combustible ductwork. 1 Use the shortest length possible. I Do not crush or collapse. ! Avoid resting the duct on shaiyj objects. I Venting must conform to local building codes.

Problem Possible Causes What To Do Clothes take too long

to dry

Improper sorting ® Sejtarate heavy' items from lighttveight items (generallv,

a well-sorted washer load is a w'ell-soited diver load).

Large loads of heavy fabrics

(like beach towels)

Controls improperly set ® Match control settings to the load you are drying. lint filter is full ® (.lean lint filter before eveiy load. Improper or obstructed

ducting

Blown fuses or tripped

circuit breaker Overloading/ combining loads ® Do not put more than one washer load in the dryer

Underloading

* Large, heary fabrics contain more moisture and take

longer to div. Separate laige, heaw fabrics into smaller loads to speed diying time.

* Check installation instructions for projrer

ducting/venting.

® Make sure ducting is clean, free of Idnks and

unobstmcted. * Check to see if outside wall damper operates easily. * Check the Installation Instnictions to make sure the

dry'er venting is correct.

Rejtlace fuses or reset circuit breakers. Since most dry'ers

use 2 fuses/breakem, make sure both are operating.

If you are diying only one or ttvo items, add a few items

to ensure ¡rroper tumbling.

Clothes are wrinkled Overdrying

Letting items sit in dryer

after cycle ends Overloading ® Se|iarate large loads into smaller ones.

Clothes shrink Some fabrics will naturally shrink

when washed. Others can be safely washed, but will shrink in the dryer

Select a shorter diying time.

•

Remove items while they still hold a slight amount of

moisture. Select a LESS DRY or DAMP DRY aenhig.

Remove items when cvcle ends and fold or hang

immediatelv.

® To avoid shrinkage, fitllow' gamient care labels exactly. ® Some items may be pressed back into shape after diying. ® If you are concerned about shrinkage in a particular
