and clothes may be unnecessarily
wrinkled.

Clean the lint filter before
drying every load.

Energy-Saving Tips
• Sort clothes by weight so you won't
have to run an extra cycle for one or
two heavier, slower-drying items.
See page 8.
• Do not overload dryer. For
efficient drying, clothes need to
tumble freely.
• To help prevent ironing, use
Knits/Low Heat. Remove garments
promptly at end of drying cycle and
place on hangers.
• Dry your clothes in consecutive
loads. Using a "warm" dryer will
save energy.
• Clean dryer lint filter each time
you dry.
• Clean dryer exhaust ducting at least
once a year. A partially clogged
exhaust can lengthen drying time.
