Maintain good air flow by:

[] Cleaning your lint screen before each load. [] Replacing plastic or foil vent material with 4" (102 mm)

diameter heavy_ rigid vent material.

Fire Hazard

Use a heavy metal vent, Do not use a plastic vent.

Do not use a metal foil vent. Failure to follow these instructions can result in death

or fire.

Good Air Flow

Along with heat, dryers require good air flow to efficiently dry laundry. Proper venting will reduce your drying times and improve your energy savings. See installation

instructions. The venting system attached to the dryer plays a big role

in good air flow. Service calls caused by improper venting are not covered

by the warranty and will be paid by the customer, regardless of who installed the dryer.

[]

Using the shortest length of vent possible.

[]

Using no more than four 90 ° elbows in a vent system;

each bend and curve reduces air flow.

........................Bett

[] Removing lint and debris from the exhaust hood. [] Removing lint from the entire length of the vent system

at least every 2 years. When cleaning is complete,

be sure to follow the Installation Instructions supplied

with your dryer for final product check.

[] Clearing away items from the front of the dryer.

Use Auto Dry Cycles for better fabric care and energy savings

Use the Auto Dry Cycles to provide the most energy savings and enhanced fabric care from the dryer. During Auto Dry Cycles, drying air temperature and moisture level are sensed in the load. This sensing occurs throughout the drying cycle and the dryer shuts off: when the load reaches the selected dryness. Choose Normal to save energy.

With Timed Dry, the dryer runs the amount of time set and sometimes results in shrinkage, wrinkling, and static due to over=drying. Use Timed Dry for the occasional damp load that needs a little more drying time or when using the drying rack.
