Operating Instructions - Frigidaire FRQG7000L Use & Care Manual

Operating Your Dryer
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fi re, electric shock or injury to
persons, read the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
in this Use and Care Guide before operating your dryer.
1
Prepare load for drying.
• Dry items of similar fabric, weight and construction in
the same load.
• Separate dark items from light-colored items. Separate
items that shed lint from those that attract lint.
• Check for stains which may not have been removed
in washing. Repeat stain removal process and wash
again before drying. Dryer heat may permanently set
some stains.
• Place delicate or small items in
a mesh bag.
• Be sure buckles, buttons
and trim are heatproof
and won't damage
the drum fi nish. Close
zippers, button but-
tons, fasten hooks and
Velcro -like fasteners.
®
Tie strings and sashes to prevent snagging and tangling.
2
Check that the lint fi lter
is clean and in place.
3
Load the dryer and
close the door.
• Load items loosely. The av-
erage wet load will fi ll the
drum 1/3 to 1/2 full. Items
need room to tumble freely
for even drying and less
wrinkling.
• If desired, place a dryer fabric softener sheet on top
of the load at the beginning of the cycle.
• To save energy and time and avoid uneven drying and
wrinkling, do not overload the dryer.
• When drying large items, dry only two or three items
at a time. Fill out the load with small and medium
sized items.
• For delicate or very small loads, add two or three
similar items to improve tumbling action.
4
Select the appropriate cycle and settings for
each load.
NOTE
Over-drying can cause wrinkles, shrinkage, lint,
harshness and a build up of static electricity.
(Mesh bag not included.)
