Operation Overview 1 Clean the Lint Filter. • If the lint filter has not already been cleaned, lift out the filter and remove the lint from the last load. This will help ensure the fastest and most efficient drying performance. Make sure to reinstall the filter, pressing down until it clicks firmly into place. 2 Load the Dryer. • Load the dryer with the wet laundry from the washer. If the load is extra large, you may need to divide it into smaller loads for proper performance and fabric care. 3 Turn on the Dryer. • Press the Power button to turn on the dryer. The cycle LEDs will illuminate and a chime will sound. 4 Select a Cycle. • Press a cycle button to select a cycle. The preset temperature, dry level, and option settings for that cycle will be shown. 5 Adjust Settings. Default settings for the selected cycle can now be changed, if desired, using the cycle modifier and option buttons. • Not all modifiers and options are available on all cycles. A different chime will sound and the LED will not come on if the selection is not allowed. 6 Begin Cycle. • Press the Start/Pause button to begin the cycle. The cycle can be paused at any time either by opening the door or by pressing the Start/Pause button. • If the Start/Pause button is not pressed within a certain time, the dryer shuts off and all settings are lost. 7 End of Cycle • When the cycle is finished, the chime will sound. Immediately remove your clothing from the dryer to reduce wrinkling. If Wrinkle Care is selected, the dryer will tumble briefly every few minutes to help prevent wrinkles from setting in the clothes. Check the Lint Filter Before Every Load Always make sure the lint filter a is clean before starting a new load; a clogged lint filter will increase drying time. To clean, pull the lint filter straight up and roll any lint off the filter with your fingers. Push the lint filter firmly back into place. See Regular Cleaning for more information. Always ensure the lint filter is properly installed before running the dryer. Running the dryer with a loose or missing lint filter will damage the dryer and articles in the dryer. Loading the Dryer General Tips • Combine large and small items in the same load. • Close zippers, hooks and drawstrings to prevent these items from snagging or tangling on other clothes.
