CHECK YOUR VENT SYSTEM 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.
USE AUTOMATIC DRY CYCLES FOR BETTER FABRIC CARE AND ENERGY SAVINGS
Use the Automatic Dry cycles to provide the most energy savings and enhanced fabric care from the dryer. During Automatic Dry cycles,
drying air temperature or 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. The Energy Preferred cycle will provide optimal energy savings.
With Timed Dry, the dryer runs the amount of time set and sometimes results in shrinkage, wrinkling, and static due to over-drying. Use
Timed Dry for the occasional damp load that needs a little more drying time or when using the drying rack.

NOTE: The noise level of the dryer is below 70 dB(A).
To maintain good air flow:
■ Clean your lint screen before each load.
■ Replace plastic or foil vent material with 102 mm (4")
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 of the dryer.
