CHECK YOUR VENT SYSTEM FOR GOOD AIRFLOW
Maintain good airflow by:
n
Cleaning your lint screen before each load.
n
Replacing plastic or foil vent material
with 4" (102 mm) diameter heavy, rigid
vent material.
n
Using the shortest length of vent possible.
n
Using no more than four 90° elbows in a vent system.
Each bend and curve reduces airflow.
Good
Better
Good airflow
Along with heat, dryers require good airflow 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 airflow.
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.
n
Removing lint and debris from the exhaust hood.
n
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.
n
Clearing away items from the front of the dryer.
Use Sensor Cycles for optimal fabric care and energy savings
Use the Sensor Cycles to provide the optimal fabric care from the dryer. During Sensor 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. You can also use the Extra Power option with Sensor Cycles for harder-to-dry or mixed loads.
With Timed Dry, the dryer runs the amount of time set and sometimes results in shrinkage, wrinkling, and static due to overdrying.
Use Timed Dry for the occasional damp load that needs a little more drying time or when using the drying rack.
Tips for getting the best performance from your steam dryer (on some models)
n
Results may vary depending on fabric. 100% cotton
garments with wrinkle-free finish may yield better results than
those without. 100% cotton items may require additional
touching up after cycles that use steam.
n
Use of a fabric softener sheet is not recommended with cycles
that use steam. It may cause temporary staining on clothes.
n
Cycles that use steam are not recommended for items that
have been starched. Wash any starched or new garments
prior to using cycles that use steam.
n The Steam Refresh cycle is best for smoothing out wrinkles
and reducing odors from loads consisting of dry items of
wrinkle-free cotton, cotton-polyester blend, common knits,
and synthetics.
