Your safety and the safety of others are very important.
We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety
messages.
This is the safety alert symbol.
This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.
All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word "DANGER" or "WARNING."

unless recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric
softener or product.
[] Do not use heat to dry articles containing foam rubber or
similarly textured rubber-like materials.

When pressed during a cycle, the Drum Light turns on and will
remain on until pressed again, the door is opened and closed, or
the door is left open for 20 minutes.
WRINKLE SHIELD TM Feature
When you are unable to remove a load of clothes from the dryer
as soon as it stops, wrinkles can form. The WRINKLE SHIELD TM
feature periodically tumbles, rearranges, and fluffs the load to help
keep wrinkles from forming.
• Get up to 140 minutes of heat-free, periodic tumbling at the
end of a cycle. Turn off at any time by pressing the WRINKLE
SHIELD TM feature or opening the dryer door.
For the Casual Cycle, the WRINKLE SHIELD TM feature is
preset to "ON." The other cycles will retain the WRINKLE
SHIELD TM feature setting. (The Wrinkle Shield feature is preset
to "ON" for the Casual Cycle. Ifselected for other cycles, it
will remain "ON" the next time that cycle is selected.)
Damp Dry Signal
On some models, the Damp Dry Signal may be selected to alert
you that your clothes are approximately 80% dry. This is useful
when you want to remove lightweight items in a mixed load to
avoid overdrying or remove partially dry items that may need
ironing.
The DAMP DRY SIGNAL is useful when drying bedsheets/linens in
a mixed load. When the signal goes off, open the door to stop the
dryer, rearrange the load inside the dryer, close the door and
restart the dryer to finish the drying cycle. Rearranging the load
will aid in the drying process.
NOTE: The Damp Dry Signal is available only with the Automatic
Cycles. The Damp Dry Signal is not a selectable option for the
Sanitize cycle.
Cycle Signal
The End of Cycle Signal produces an audible sound when the
drying cycle is finished.
Press until the desired volume (Loud, Soft, or Off) glows green.
NOTE: When the WRINKLE SHIELD TM feature is selected and the
End of Cycle Signal is on, an audible sound will be emitted every
5 minutes until the clothes are removed, or the WRINKLE
SHIELD TM feature is finished.

You can change the volume of the sound of the beeps. Press until
the desired volume (Loud, Soft, or Off) glows green. The Power

Auto Dry cycles.
Your Dryness Level settings can be adjusted to adapt to different
installations, environmental conditions or personal preference.

DRYERCARE
" ' ' l.}_/Te' [,ocal_on
Keep dryer area clear and free from items that would obstruct the
flow of combustion and ventilation air.
Explosion Hazard
Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as
gasoline, away from dryer.
Place dryer at least 18 inches (460 ram) above the floor
for a garage instalation.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
'_......._;IIIl=l_]__._,I,..,.,.,,1,.
Every load cleaning
The lint screen is located in the door opening of the dryer. The
control panel has an indicator light to remind you to clean the lint
screen before each load. A screen blocked by lint can increase
drying time.
To clean
1. Pull the lint screen straight up. Roll lint off the screen with your
fingers. Do not rinse or wash screen to remove lint. Wet lint is
hard to remove.
2. Push the lint screen firmly back into place.
IM PORTANT:
• Do not run the dryer with the lint screen loose, damaged,
blocked, or missing. Doing so can cause overheating and
damage to both the dryer and fabrics.
• If lint falls off the screen into the dryer during removal, check
the exhaust hood and remove the lint. See "Venting
Requirements."
As needed cleaning
Laundry detergent and fabric softener residue can build up on the
lint screen. This buildup can cause longer drying times for your
clothes, or cause the dryer to stop before your load is completely
dry. The screen is probably clogged if lint falls off while the screen
is in the dryer.
Clean the lint screen with a nylon brush every 6 months, or more
frequently, if it becomes clogged due to a residue buildup.
To wash
1. Roll lint off the screen with your fingers.
