Check Your Vent System For Good Air Flow; Use Accudry /Automatic Dry Cycles For Better Fabric Care And Energy Savings - Whirlpool WED4800BQ Use And Care Manual

CHECK YOUR VENT SYSTEM FOR GOOD AIR FLOW

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 ACCUDRY
™
FABRIC CARE AND ENERGY SAVINGS
Use the ACCUDRY™/Automatic Dry cycles to provide the most energy savings and enhanced fabric care from the dryer.
During ACCUDRY™/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.
