Section 2 Introduction

How A Tumbler Works

The tumbler uses heat, air and movement to dry loads of laundry.

When the motor is started, the exhaust fan pulls fresh air in through the air intake and over the heat source
(burner flame for gas, heating element for electric, and coil for steam).

The heated air moves into the cylinder, where it is circulated through the laundry by the tumbling action
of the cylinder.

The air then passes through the lint filter, exhaust fan, and is vented to the outdoors.

NOTE: In Energy Saver Models, some of the exhaust air is recirculated. Refer to page 9.
