● 

Do not operate this appliance if it is damaged,

malfunctioning, partially disassembled, or has
missing or broken parts, including a damaged
cord or plug.

 Never climb on or 

 on the dryer top.

● 

If yours is a gas dryer, it is equipped with an

automatic electric ignition and does not have
a pilot light. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO LIGHT

 A MATCH. Burns may result from having

your hand in the vicinity of the burner when the

Dryer-applied Fabric Softeners or

 Conditioners

You may wish to soften your laundered
fabrics or reduce the static electricity in them.
We recommend you use either a fabric softener
in the wash cycle, according to the manufacturer’s
instructions for those products, or try a dryer-added

product for which the manufacturer gives written
assurance on the package that their product can be
safely used in your dryer.
Service or performance problems caused by
the use of these products are the responsibility
of the manufacturers of those products and are
not covered under the warranty of this appliance.

SAVE 

ENERGY-SAVING 

● 

Sort clothes by weight so you won’t have to run an extra cycle for one

or two heavier, slower-drying items.

 Do not overload your dryer. For efficient drying, clothes need

to tumble freely.

● 

Use Automatic 

 Cycles whenever possible to help prevent

overdying and to save energy.

● 

To 

help prevent ironing, use 

 Press (Medium) or 

(Low). Remove garments promptly at end of drying cycle and place

on hangers.

● 

Dry 

your clothes in consecutive loads. Using a “warm” dryer

will save energy.

● 

Clean the dryer lint filter each time you dry.

● 

Clean the dryer exhaust 

 at least once a year. A partially clogged

exhaust can lengthen drying time.
