1-800-807-6777 or visit us at www.whirlpoolparts.ca

15" Pedestal Color-matched pedestals raise the washer and dryer to a more comfortable working

height. The large drawer provides convenient storage.

Stack Kit

If space is at a premium, the stack kit

allows the dryer to be installed on top of the washer.

Drying Rack

The Drying Rack provides a

stationary drying surface for items such as sweaters and tennis shoes. See the "Additional Features"

section for more information.

Check Your Vent System for Good

Airflow

Maintain good airflow by:

[] Cleaning your lint screen before each load. [] Replace 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.

[] Use the shortest length of vent possible. [] Use no more than four 90° elbows in a vent system;

each bend and curve reduces airflow.

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.

[]

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 final product check.

[]

Clear away items from the front of the dryer.

Use Automatic Cycles for better fabric care and energy savings

Better_

Use the Automatic Cycles to provide the most energy savings and enhanced fabric care from the dryer. During Automatic 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. Use the NORMAL dryness level to 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.

Tips for getting the best performance from your steam dryer (on some models)

[] 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. [] Use of fabric softener sheet is not recommended with

cycles that use steam. It may cause temporary staining on clothes.

Cycles that use steam are not recommended for items that have been starched. Wash any starched or new garments

prior to using a cycle that uses steam.

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.

Control panel and features

Not all features and cycles are available on all models. NOTE: The control panel features a sensitive surface that responds to a light touch of your finger. To ensure your selections are

registered, touch the control panel with your finger tip, not your fingernail. When selecting a setting or option, simply touch its name.
