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. Sepa-
rate 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, but-
tons and trim are heat-
proof and won’t dam-
age the drum fi nish.
Close zippers, button
(Mesh bag not included.)
buttons, 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 average
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.
