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.
,Do not overload your dryer. For efficient drying, clothes need
to tumble freely.
,Use Automatic Cycles whenever possible to help prevent overdying
and to save energy.
,Remove garments promptly at the end of the drying cycle and place
on hangers.
,Dry your clothes in consecutive loads. Using a "warm" dryer
will save energy.
• Clean the dryer lint filter each time you dry.
• Clean the dryer exhaust ducting at least once a year. A partially clogged
exhaust can lengthen drying time.
