Operating Tips
Note
• Do not operate the dryer without the lint filter in
place.
Clean the Lint Filter
• After each load.
• To shorten drying time.
• To operate more energy efficiently.
Load the Dryer Properly
• Place only one washload in the dryer at a time.
• Mixed loads of heavy and lightweight clothes will dry
differently. Lightweight clothes will dry, while heavy
clothes may be damp.
• Add one or more similar items to the dryer when only
one or two articles need drying. This improves the
tumbling action and drying efficiency.
• Overloading restricts tumbling action, resulting in
uneven drying as well as excessive wrinkling of some
fabrics.

Dryer Exhaust System
Inspect and clean once a year to maintain optimum
