HELPFUL HINTS FOR DRYER EFFICIENCY
1. Your Washer-Dryer spins at a high 1000 rpm spin speed, which will extract more water
especially f r o m absorbent fabrics and reduce the degree of dampness as the machine goes into
the drying mode. This will cut down on your drying time.
2. FABRIC SOFTENER: After the wash cycle, the clothes can get stuck to the sides of the drum.
USING LIQUID FABRIC
AND TUMBLE IN THE DRY CYCLE. THIS HELPS DRY CLOTHES FASTER AND CAUSES LESS
WRINKLES.
3. OVERLOADING: The drum has a capacity of 13 lbs (1.72 cu. ft.) While this unit has one of the
largest drum available on any combination washer-dryer, it is smaller than a standard U.S. washer.
drum should not be overloaded. With too many clothes, airflow is r e d uced, increasing drying time.
The drum should be filled to a maximum 2/3
4. OVER DRYING: The condensing dryer uses cold water is used to condense the moisture from
the hot air. Since there is no external exhaust system, the moisture remains in the m achine.
Frequently, when it seems the clothes are damp, it is actually the remaining moisture (like d e w). Take
clothes out and within a few minutes they will be dry. Do not over
uses air-dry.
5. USE HIGH EFFICIENCY (HE) DETERGENT: By using High Efficiency (HE) detergent, you are
preventing suds from entering the condensing chamber . When suds enter the c o ndensing
chamber, t l he particles can clog up the chamber and the fan blower. O v er time, this reduces
drying efficiency and may require the fan blower (impeller) to be c l e a ned. For this and all other front
-loading/horizontal-axis units, High Efficiency (HE) detergents go a long way to improve the efficiency of
the units.
6. SORTING: When sorting laundry always take into consideration the quantity and type of fabric contained
in the load. Highly absorbent fabrics such as those used in towels or jeans will absorb more water
and become very heavy when saturated. If you notice that your clothes are taking longer than
usual to dry you may be overloading the machine, or washing too many highly absorbent articles
for a single load.
