USING THE DRYING RACK

To obtain a drying rack for your dryer, order by calling  

1-877-944-7566

. You will need your model and serial number 

and the purchase date. Remove and discard any packing  

material before use. 
Use the Drying Rack for items that you do not want to tumble 

dry, such as sweaters and tennis shoes. When you use the 

drying rack, the drum continues to turn, but the rack remains 

stationary. 
The drying rack is intended for use with the Timed Dry cycle 

only. The drying rack cannot be used with Sensor cycles.

To use the drying rack: 

IMPORTANT:

 Do not remove the lint screen. 

1.

  Open dryer door. 

3.

  Place wet items on top of the drying rack. Allow space 

around items for air to circulate. The drying rack does not 

move, but the drum will rotate; be sure to leave adequate 

clearance between items and the inside of the dryer drum. 

Make sure items do not hang over the edges or between 

drying rack grille.

4.

  Close the door. 

5.

  Select a Timed Dry/Air Only, or Low Temperature cycle. 

Items containing foam, rubber, or plastic must be dried on  

a clothesline or by using the Air Only setting. 

6.

  When the cycle is selected, the Estimated Time Remaining 

display shows the default time. You can change the actual 

time in the cycle by increasing or decreasing the cycle time. 

7.

  Start the dryer. 

NOTE:

 Check the lint screen and remove any lint accumulated 

from items dried on the drying rack after the cycle is finished. 

CYCLE STATUS INDICATORS

The Cycle Status Indicators show the progress of a cycle. 

Sensing
 

The Sensing indicator will light during Sensor Cycles to  

indicate that the moisture sensor on the dryer is operating. This 

indicator will not light during Timed Cycles or options such as 

Wrinkle Prevent.

Check Vent
 

The Check Vent indicator will light if there is a blocked vent or 

low airflow.

Good Airflow
 

This indicator will light if there is no major vent blockage.

Steaming

may be removed from the dryer. If Wrinkle Prevent has been 

selected, the dryer may continue to tumble the load, even if  

the Done indicator is lit.

The Check Lint Screen indicator will light when the drying  

cycle is complete as a reminder to clean the lint screen.
