Your dryer must be properly installed and vented to achieve maximum drying efficiency and shorten drying times. Use the
minimum recommended installation clearances (found in your
Installation Instructions) to avoid blocking the flow of combustion
and ventilation air. See the Installation Instructions for more
information.

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.
If the dryer is not properly installed and vented, it will not be
covered under the warranty.
NOTE: Service calls caused by improper venting will be paid for by the customer, whether it was a paid installation or self-
installed.
1.
Do not use plastic vent or metal foil vent. Use 4 in. (10.2 cm)
metal or flexible metal vent. Do not kink or crush flexible metal vent. It must be completely extended to allow adequate
exhaust air to flow. Check vent after installation. Refer to your
Installation Instructions for proper length requirements of
vent.

least every 2 years, or when installing your dryer in a new location. When cleaning is complete, be sure to follow the
Installation Instructions supplied with your dryer for final product check.

purchased your dryer. NOTE: You must remove dryer rack for normal tumbling. Do not
use automatic cycles with the dryer rack.

This booklet covers several different models. Your dryer may not
have all of the cycles and features described. Before using your dryer, wipe the dryer drum with a damp cloth to
remove dust from storing and shipping.
1. Load clothes loosely into the dryer and close the door. Do not pack the dryer. Allow space for clothes to tumble freely.
2. Turn the Cycle Selector Control to the recommended cycle for the type of load being dried. Use the Normal Dry cycle,
called out by an asterisk (*) to dry most heavy to medium weight fabrics.
3. Set the Temperature control, to the recommended setting for the type of fabric being dried. See "Dryer Cycle Descriptions" (separate sheet) for temperature suggestions.
4. (OPTIONAL) Your dryer may have aWRINKLE GUARD c,_ feature selector. When you are unable to remove a load from
the dryer as soon as it stops, wrinkles can form. This feature
periodically tumbles, rearranges and fluffs the load without heat to help avoid wrinkling.
5o (OPTIONAL) If you want the dryer to sound a signal when the
cycle is finished, set the END OF CYCLE SIGNAL control to ON, or to the volume level you prefer (on some models). The
signal is helpful when you are drying permanent press, synthetics and other items that should be removed from the
dryer as soon as it stops.
