Energy Saving Tips
,Keep the lint screen clean and exhaust the
dryer correctly.
Sort laundry properly and select proper
temperature and cycle settings. Choose an
automatic dry cycle whenever possible for
accurate drying time.
Dry only full loads. Single items and small
loads usually take longer to dry.
Avoid overloading, adding wet items to a
partially dry load, and overdrying.
Dry one load after another to take advantage
of a warm dryer.
Opening the door needlessly causes warm
air to escape, which prolongs drying time.
if possible, use the dryer on low humidity
days.
install the dryer in an area where the room
temperature is at least 45°F (7°C).
