OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
STEP 1 - PREPARE AND SORT LAUNDRY
•
Check garment labels for manufacturers’ drying instructions.
•
Where possible, turn pockets inside out for uniform drying.
•
Tie strings and sashes so they don’t tangle.
•
Close zippers, snaps and hooks to avoid snagging.
•
Make sure buttons and ornaments on the clothes are high temperature resistant
and will not damage drum surface.
•
To avoid permanently setting stains or soils, check that all stains and soils have
been removed during the wash cycle. If not, wash them again.
•
To avoid entanglement and ensure easy removal, small articles should be
collected in a mesh bag before loading.
•
Separate fabrics that attract lint from fabrics that give o
lint. Clothes prone to
linting should be turned inside out before being put into the dryer.
STEP 2 - CLEAN THE LINT SCREEN
1.
Clean the lint screen before each use. The
Þ
lter can be removed by pulling on the
handle of the lint screen located inside the dryer door.
2.
Use your
Þ
ngers to roll the accumulated lint o
of the lint screen. Do not rinse or
wash the lint screen to remove lint.
3.
Slide the lint screen back into place.
NOTES:
•
Do not operate the dryer without having the lint screen in place. Without the
screen, tumbling garments could enter the exhaust system and cause damage
to the dryer.
•
Lint buildup on the screen will restrict air
ß
ow and cause longer drying times.
