OPERATING THE DRYER

POWER

HOW TO USE
1
LOAD THE DRYER
Load the dryer with the wet laundry from the washer. If
the load is extra large, you may need to divide it into
smaller loads for proper performance and fabric care.
2
CLEAN THE LINT FILTER
If the lint filter has not already been cleaned, lift out the
filter and remove the lint from the last load. This will
help ensure the fastest and most efficient drying perfor-
mance.
3
TURN ON THE DRYER
Press the POWER button to turn on the dryer. The
cycle LEDs will illuminate and a chime will sound, if
turned on. Refer to page 18.
4
SELECT A CYCLE
Turn the Cycle Selector Knob either direction until the
LED for the desired cycle is on. The preset tempera-
ture, dry level, and option settings for that cycle will be
shown. (TOUCH UP cycle is selected by pressing the
TOUCH UP button on the left.)
Refer to page 20.
5
SELECT CYCLE MODIFIERS
Default settings for the selected cycle can now be
changed if desired. This can be done using the cycle
modifier buttons as shown on page 23 (temperature,
dry level, timed dry and chime).
NOTE: Not all options or modifiers are available on all
cycles.
6
SELECT CYCLE OPTIONS
Cycle options can be added using the options buttons
as shown on page 24 (wrinkle guard and control lock).
NOTE: Not all options or modifiers are available on all
cycles.
7
BEGIN CYCLE
Press the START/PAUSE button to begin the cycle.
The cycle can be paused at any time either by open-
ing the door or by pressing the START/PAUSE button.
If the cycle is not restarted within 4 minutes, the dryer
will shut off and the cycle settings will be lost.
8
END OF CYCLE
When the cycle is finished, the chime will sound if it is
set. Remove your clothing from the dryer immediately
to reduce wrinkling. If Wrinkle Guard is selected, the
dryer will tumble briefly every few minutes to help pre-
vent wrinkles from setting in the clothes.
