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

[]
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 the dryer.
Use Sensor Cycles for better
fabric
care and energy
savings
Use the Sensor Cycles to provide the most energy savings and enhanced 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. Use the NORMAL DRY dryness level to provide optimal energy savings.
With Timed Cycles, the dryer runs the amount of time set and sometimes results in shrinkage, wrinkling, and static due to
over=drying. Use Timed Cycles for the occasional damp load that needs a little more drying time or when using the drying rack.
