WORTANT SAFE~

The California Safe Enforcement Act requires California to publish a list of substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.

Gas appliances can cause minor exposure to four of these substances, namely benzene, carbon monoxide, formaldehyde and soot, caused primarily by the incomplete combustion of natural gas or

Properly adjusted dryers will minimize incomplete combustion. Exposure to these substances can be

minimizd further by properly venting the dryers

to the outdoors.

Dryer-applied Fabric Softeners or Anti-static Conditioners

You may wish to soften your laundered fabrics or reduce the static electricity in them.

We recommend you use either a fabric softener in the wash cycle, according to the manufacturer’s instructions for those products, or try a dryer-added product for which the manufacturer gives written assurance on the package that their product can be safely used in your dryer.

Service or performance problems caused by the use of these products are the responsibility of the manufacturers of those products and are

not covered under the warranty of this appliance.

The Difference Between Automatic, Timed and Air Drying

Automatic Drying Timed Drying.

The Automatic cycles use a solid sensing device,

located on the back of the dryer drum, to measure

the amount of moisture in the load. The sensor

“feels” the moisture in items as they tumble over

it.

As the items begin to dry, the moisture level drops. When the proper degree of dryness is sensed, the timer advances into a gentle heat, then cools down.

When using the Timed Cycles, you select the number of minutes you wish the dryer to run and it turns off at the end of this time period. The last 5 minutes of this cycle are without heat. This helps make the load easier to handle.

Air Cycle.

The dryer does not heat when the Cycle Control knob is set on AIR. This cycle can be used to fluff or air dry bedding, plastic tablecloths, foam rubber pillows, stuffed toys, sneakers, etc.

How to Load Your Dryer

For best results, dry only articles of the same or similar type fabric in a single

load. Never overload the dryer. The drum should be no more than 1/2 full of

wet articles. Overloading prolongs drying time and produces uneven drying.

Page 10

User Maintenance Instmctions

●

To keep your dryer looking good,

wipe cabinet with a damp cloth. Occasionally wash it with mild soap and water and then apply a light coat of appliance polish to help preserve the finish.

●

Clean the lint filter before

every load.

Dryer

●

Keep area around and underneath

your appliance free from the

accumulation of combustible materials, such as lint, paper, rags, chemicals, etc.

●

Keep the floor around your

appliances clean and dry to reduce the possibility of slipping.

●

Do not store dryer where it will

be exposed to the weather.

If your dryer is exhausted to the outside, inspect and clean the dryer exhaust

ducting

at least once a year.

A clothes dryer produces combustible lint. When the dryer is not exhausted to the outside, this lint is more apt to accumulate in and near the dryer, which could create a fire

How to reduce the possibility of a fire hazard, if your dryer (gas dryers must be exhausted outside) is not exhausted to the outside:

●

Clean the lint filter before every load. See How to
