Care & Cleaning Control Panel Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive substances. The control panel finish could be damaged by some laundry pre-treatment soil and stain-remover products. Apply such products away from the dryer and wipe up any spills or overspray immediately. Dryer Exterior Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive substances. Protect the surface from sharp objects. Dryer Exhaust System Inspect and clean once a year to maintain optimum performance. The outside exhaust hood should be cleaned more frequently to ensure proper operation. Refer to the installation instructions for more information. Stainless Steel To clean the stainless steel tumbler, use a damp cloth with a mild, non-abrasive cleaner suitable for stainless steel surfaces. Remove the cleaner residue and then dry with a clean cloth. Special Laundry Tips Please follow the care label or manufacturer's instructions for drying special items. If care label instructions are not available, use the following information as a guide. ITEM Blankets Curtains and Draperies Cloth Diapers Down-Filled Items (jackets, sleeping bags, comforters, etc.) Foam Rubber (rug backs, stuffed toys, certain shoulder pads, etc.) Pillows Plastics (shower curtains, outdoor furniture covers, etc.) LAUNDERING TIPS • Dry only one blanket at a time for best tumbling action. • Be sure the item is thoroughly dry before using or storing. • Use the Wrinkle Control cycle to help minimize wrinkling. • Dry in small loads for best results and remove as soon as possible. • Use the Normal/Auto Dry cycle for soft, fluffy diapers. • Use the Normal/Auto Dry cycle and a delicate temperature setting. • Place a clean pair of sneakers in the dryer with the item to fluff the down comforters, etc. Adding a couple of dry towels shortens dry time and absorbs moisture. • DO NOT dry on a heat setting. Use the Air Fluff (no-heat) cycle. • WARNING - Drying a rubber item with heat may damage it or be a fire hazard. • Use the Normal cycle. • Add a couple of dry towels and a pair of clean sneakers to help the tumbling action and to fluff the item. • DO NOT dryer-dry kapok or foam pillows. • Use the Air Fluff cycle on a Low or Air Fluff temperature depending on the care label instructions. IMPORTANT: Avoid Dryer Drying . . . • Fiberglass Items (curtains, draperies, etc.). • Woolens, unless recommended on the label. • Vegetable or cooking oil soaked items (see page 2). 8
