CHECK YOUR VENT SYSTEM FOR GOOD AIR FLOW
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.
Maintain good air flow by:
nCleaning your lint screen before each load.
nReplacing plastic or foil vent material with 4" (102 mm) diameter heavy, rigid vent material.
nUsing the shortest length of vent possible.
nUsing no more than four 90° elbows in a vent system; each bend and curve reduces air flow.
Good 
Better 
nRemoving lint and debris from the exhaust hood.
nRemoving 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.
nClearing 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 cycle to save energy.
With Timed Dry cycle, the dryer runs the amount of time set and sometimes results in shrinkage, wrinkling, and static due to overdrying. Use Timed Dry cycle for the occasional damp load that needs a little more drying time or when using the drying rack.

Not all features and options are available on all models.
Appearance may vary.
1 DRYER CYCLE KNOB
Turn the knob to select a cycle for your laundry load.
See “Cycle Guide” for detailed descriptions of cycles.
Timed Dry
Will run the dryer for the specified time on the control. On models with a selectable temperature knob, you may choose a setting based on the fabrics in your load. Drying time and temperature will depend on your dryer model.
Auto Dry
Auto Dry cycles give the best drying in the shortest time.
Drying time will vary based on fabric type, load size, and dryness setting.
Air Only
Use the Air Only setting to dry foam, rubber, plastic, or heat-sensitive fabrics.
Wrinkle Guard™ function (on some models)
When you are unable to remove a load of clothes from the dryer as soon as it stops, wrinkles can form.
The Wrinkle Guard™ function periodically tumbles, rearranges, and fluffs the load without heat to help keep wrinkles from forming, for up to 40 minutes at the end of a cycle.
2 Dry Temp (on some models)
Select a drying temperature based on the fabrics in your load. If you are unsure of the temperature to select for a load, select the lower setting rather than the higher setting. See “Cycle Guide.”
3 Cycle Signal/Push to Start
The Cycle Signal produces an audible sound when the drying cycle is finished. On some models, this knob is combined with the Push to Start button. Promptly removing clothes at the end of the cycle reduces wrinkling.
Turn the CYCLE SIGNAL knob to select the desired setting (On or Off). With combined buttons, press and hold the CYCLE SIGNAL/PUSH TO START button to start the dryer. On models without the cycle signal, press the PUSH TO
START button to start the dryer.
NOTE: During the Wrinkle Guard™ function and when the Cycle Signal is on, the tone will sound every 5 minutes until the clothes are removed or the Wrinkle Guard™ function ends.

CYCLE GUIDE – AUTO DRY CYCLES
Not all cycles and settings are available on all models. Settings and options shown in bold are default settings for that cycle.
AUTO DRY – Senses moisture in the load or air temperature and shuts off when the load reaches the selected dryness level.
Depending on model, temperature may be selected on cycle knob or be a separate control. Choose Normal to save energy.

Automatic cycles give the best drying in the shortest time. Drying time varies based on load size and dryness setting.
Select a drying temperature based on the fabrics in your load. If you are unsure of the temperature to select for a load, select the lower setting rather than the higher setting.
NOTE: If loads do not seem as dry as you would like, select More next time you dry a similar load. If loads seem drier than you like, select Less next time you dry a similar load.
CYCLE GUIDE – TIMED DRY CYCLES
Not all cycles and settings are available on all models.
TIMED DRY – Will run the dryer for the specified time on the control. Depending on model, temperature may be selected on cycle knob or be a separate control.

Setting the Drying Temperature
If your dryer has multiple temp settings:
A High Cotton temp setting may be used for drying heavyweight items such as towels and work clothes.
A Low Delicates or Medium Casual temp setting may be used for drying medium-weight items such as sheets, blouses, dresses, underwear, permanent press fabrics, and some knits.
Use a Air Only (no heat) setting for foam, rubber, plastic, or heat-sensitive fabrics. Line dry bonded or laminated fabrics.
NOTE: If you have questions about drying temperatures for various loads, refer to the care label directions.

USING YOUR DRYER
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS before operating this appliance.
1. Clean the lint screen
2. Load the dryer
Clean the lint screen before each load. Pull the lint screen out of its holder. Roll lint off the screen with your fingers. Do not rinse or wash screen to remove lint. Push the lint screen firmly back into place. For additional cleaning information, see “Dryer Care.”
Place laundry in the dryer. Close the door. Do not tightly pack the dryer; clothes should be able to tumble freely.
NOTE: Your model may have a different door than the one shown. Some models have drop down doors.

3. Select the desired cycle
Appearance may vary.
Select the desired cycle for your load. See the “Cycle Guide” for more information about each cycle.
Auto Dry cycles
You can select a different dry level, depending on your load, by turning the knob to More, Normal, or Less.
Selecting More, Normal, or Less automatically adjusts the dryness level at which the dryer will shut off. Once a dry level is set, it cannot be changed without stopping the cycle.
Auto Dry cycles give the best drying in the shortest time. Drying time varies based on fabric type, load size, and dryness setting.
NOTE: More Dry removes more load moisture. Normal Dry is used for a starting point for Auto Dry cycles. Choose normal to save energy. Less Dry removes less moisture and is used for loads you may want to put on a hanger to complete drying.
4. Set temperature (on some models)
Turn the DRY TEMP knob to change the drying temperature setting. See “Setting the Drying Temperature.”
5. Select Cycle Signal, if desired
(on some models)
Turn the CYCLE SIGNAL knob to select the desired setting (On or Off). The Cycle Signal produces an audible sound when the drying cycle is finished. Promptly removing clothes at the end of the cycle reduces wrinkling.
NOTE: During the Wrinkle Guard™ function and if the Cycle Signal is on, the tone will sound every 5 minutes until the clothes are removed or the Wrinkle Guard™ function ends.
6. Press and hold PUSH TO START to begin cycle
Appearance may vary.
Press and hold the PUSH TO START button to begin the cycle.
Promptly remove garments after cycle has completed to reduce wrinkling. The Wrinkle Guard™ function at the end of
the cycle avoids wrinkling when you are unable to remove a load from the dryer as soon as it stops.
