DRYER USE
Loading
Load clothes loosely into the dryer. Do not pack the dryer. Allow space for clothes to tumble freely. The following charts show examples
of balanced loads that would allow for proper tumbling.
Starting Your Dryer
This booklet covers several different models. Your dryer may not
have all of the cycles and features described.
Before using your dryer, wipe the dryer drum with a damp cloth to
remove dust from storing and shipping.
1. Load clothes loosely into the dryer and close the door. Do not
pack the dryer. Allow space for clothes to tumble freely.
2. Turn the Cycle Control knob to the recommended cycle for the
type of load being dried. Use the Energy Preferred Automatic
Setting to dry most heavy to medium weight fabrics.
3. (OPTIONAL) Your dryer may have an END OF CYCLE SIGNAL.
The signal is helpful when drying items that should be
removed from the dryer as soon as it stops. The End of Cycle
signal is part of the Start button and is selectable. Turn the
Start button to ON or OFF. The signal will sound only if the
selector is set to On.
4. If desired, add fabric softener sheet. Use only ones labeled as
dryer safe. Follow package instructions.
5. Press the PUSH TO START button.
Stopping and Restarting
You can stop your dryer anytime during a cycle.
To stop your dryer
Open the dryer door or turn the Cycle Control knob to OFF.
NOTE: The Cycle Control knob should point to an Off area when
the dryer is not in use.
To restart your dryer
Close the door. Select a new cycle and temperature (if desired).
Press the PUSH TO START button.
