CHECK YOUR VENT SYSTEM FOR GOOD AIR FLOW
Maintain good air ow by:
n
Cleaning your lint screen before each load.
n
Replace plastic or foil vent material with 4" (102 mm)
diameter heavy, rigid vent material.
n
Use the shortest length of vent possible.
n
Use no more than four 90° elbows in a vent system;
each bend and curve reduces air ow.
Good air ow
Along with heat, dryers require good air ow to
efciently 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 ow.
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

n
Good Better
Remove lint and debris from the exhaust hood.
Remove 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 nal product check.
Clear away items from the front of the dryer.
USE SENSOR DRY CYCLES FOR BETTER FABRIC CARE
AND ENERGY SAVINGS
Use the SENSOR DRY cycles to provide the most energy savings and enhanced fabric care from the dryer. During SENSOR DRY
cycles, drying air temperature or 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. The Energy Preferred cycle will provide optimal energy savings.
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.

CONTROL PANEL & FEATURES
52 3 41
Not all features and options are available on all models.
1
TEMPERATURE
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.
2
SIGNAL
The Signal produces an audible sound when the drying cycle
is nished. Promptly removing clothes at the end of the cycle
reduces wrinkling.
Turn the SIGNAL knob to select the desired setting (Off,
Low, or High).
3
CYCLE KNOB
Use Cycle Knob to select available cycles on your dryer.
Turn the knob to select a cycle for your laundry load. See
“Cycle Guide” for detailed descriptions of cycles.
Appearance may vary.
TIMED DRY
Will run the dryer for the specied time on the control.
On models with a selectable temperature knob, you
may choose a setting based on the fabrics in your load.
On some models, temperature is included in the cycle
selections. Drying time and temperature will depend on
your dryer model.
SENSOR DRY
Senses moisture in the load or air temperature and
shuts off when the load reaches the selected dryness
level. Gives the best drying in the shortest time. Drying
time will vary based on fabric type, load size, and
temperature setting.
4
WRINKLE CONTROL Feature
The WRINKLE CONTROL feature will run after your drying
cycle is complete. It periodically starts and stops the dryer,
tumbling the load without heat to help avoid wrinkling.
WRINKLE CONTROL automatically starts at the end of the
cycle. Opening the door will stop this feature.
n
Get up to 120 minutes of heat-free, periodic tumbling at
the end of a cycle. Turn the WRINKLE CONTROL knob
to OFF, 60 min., or 120 min. at any time before the cycle
has ended.
NOTE: A signal will sound periodically when the WRINKLE
CONTROL setting is selected, but only if the Signal is also
selected.

PUSH TO START
Press the PUSH TO START knob to start the dryer.
