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.

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.

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.
Q
If your dryer is exhausted to the

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
hmard.
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
Operate Your Dryer section.
Lint can gather inside the dryer and create a
FIRE HAZARD. This lint should be removed at least every 2 or 3 years, or more often, depending on dryer usage.

. Do not put hands inside the cabinet.
Make sure the dryer is cool.
More than one person is required to lift, tilt
or move the washer/dryer because of its weight and size.
Failure to do so could result in electrical shock, injury or damage.

1.
Unplug unit from electrical supply or turn off

Improper sorting. Do not mix heavy, hard-to-dry items with lightweight articles.
Large loads of moisture-holding fabrics, such as beach towels, take a long
time to remove moisture.
Too many items in dryer. Dry only one washer load at a time. Do not
combine loads.
Too few items in dryer. If drying only one article, add two more similar articles,
even if dry, to insure proper tumbling.
When dryer is operating on a 120-volt circuit, longer drying times are
no-.
The drying on this circuit takes about three times as long as on a
240-volt circuit.
Excessively wet clothes. Check washer; it may be malfunctioning.
Some fabrics will shrink whether machine washed and tumble dried or washed
by hand and drip dried; others maybe safely washed but will shrink in a dryer.
Follow garment manufacturers’ care labels exactly. If in doubt, do not machine wash or tumble dry.
