CHECK YOUR VENT SYSTEM FOR GOOD AIRFLOW
Good airow
Along with heat, dryers require good airow to efciently dry
laundry. Proper venting will reduce your drying times and
improve your energy savings. See Installation Instructions.
The venting system attached to the dryer plays a big role
in good airow.
Service calls caused by improper venting are not covered
by the warranty and will be paid by the customer, regardless
of who installed the dryer.
Maintain good airow by:
■ Cleaning your lint screen before each load.
■ Replace plastic or foil vent material
with 4" (102 mm) diameter heavy, rigid
vent material.
Good Better
■ Use the shortest length of vent possible.
■ Use no more than four 90° elbows in a vent system;
each bend and curve reduces airow.
■ Remove lint and debris from the exhaust hood.
■ Remove lint from the entire length of the vent system
at least every 2 years. When cleaning is complete, be
sure to follow the Installation Instructions supplied with
your dryer for nal product check.
■ Clear away items from the front of the dryer.
Use Automatic Cycles for better fabric care and energy savings
Use the Automatic Cycles to provide the most energy savings and enhanced fabric care from the dryer. During Automatic Cycles,
drying air temperature and moisture level are sensed in the load. This sensing occurs throughout the drying cycle and the dryer
shuts off when the load reaches the selected dryness. Use the NORMAL dryness level to provide optimal energy savings.
With Timed Dry, the dryer runs the amount of time set and sometimes results in shrinkage, wrinkling, and static due to
over-drying. Use Timed Dry for the occasional damp load that needs a little more drying time or when using the drying rack.
Tips for getting the best performance from your steam dryer
Q Results may vary depending on fabric. 100% cotton
garments with wrinkle-free nish may yield better results
than those without. 100% cotton items may require
additional touching up after cycles that use steam.
Q Use of fabric softener sheet is not recommended with
cycles that use steam. It may cause temporary staining
on clothes.
Q Cycles that use steam are not recommended for items that
have been starched. Wash any starched or new garments
prior to using a cycle that uses steam.
Q Some Models: The Steam Refresh Cycle is best for
smoothing out wrinkles and reducing odors from loads
consisting of dry items of wrinkle-free cotton, cotton-
polyester blend, common knits, and synthetics.

DRYER CARE
CLEANING THE DRYER LOCATION
Keep dryer area clear and free from items that would
block the airow for proper dryer operation. This includes
clearing piles of laundry in front of the dryer.
CLEANING THE DRYER INTERIOR
To clean dryer drum
1. Use a mild hand dish detergent mixed at a low
concentration with very warm water, and rub with
a soft cloth.
2. Rinse well with a wet sponge or towel.
3. Tumble a load of clean clothes or towels to dry drum
OR
Use a microber cloth and hot water in a spray bottle
to clean the drum and a second microber towel to dry.
NOTE: Garments that contain unstable dyes, such as
denim blue jeans or brightly colored cotton items, may
discolor the rear of the dryer interior. These stains are
not harmful to your dryer and will not stain future loads
of clothes. Dry unstable dye items inside out to avoid
transfer of dye.
REMOVING ACCUMULATED LINT
From Inside the Dryer Cabinet
Lint should be removed every 2 years, or more often,
depending on dryer usage. Cleaning should be done by a
qualied appliance servicer or ventilation system cleaner.
From the Exhaust Vent
Lint should be removed every 2 years, or more often,
depending on dryer usage.
CLEANING THE LINT SCREEN
Every load cleaning
The lint screen is located in the door opening of the dryer.
The control panel has an indicator light to remind you to
clean the lint screen after each load. A screen blocked
by lint can increase drying time.
To clean:
1. Pull the lint screen straight up. Roll lint off the screen
with your ngers. Do not rinse or wash screen to remove
lint. Wet lint is hard to remove.
2. Push the lint screen rmly back into place.
IMPORTANT:
Q Do not run the dryer with the lint screen loose,
damaged, blocked, or missing. Doing so can cause
overheating and damage to both the dryer and fabrics.
Q If lint falls off the screen into the dryer during removal,
check the exhaust hood and remove the lint. See
“Venting Requirements” in the Installation Instructions.
As needed cleaning
Laundry detergent and fabric softener residue can build
up on the lint screen. This buildup can cause longer drying
times for your clothes, or cause the dryer to stop before
your load is completely dry. The screen is probably clogged
if lint falls off while the screen is in the dryer.
Clean the lint screen with a nylon brush every 6 months,
or more frequently, if it becomes clogged due to a residue
buildup.
To wash:
1. Roll lint off the screen with your ngers.
2. Wet both sides of lint screen with hot water.
3. Wet a nylon brush with hot water and liquid detergent.
Scrub lint screen with the brush to remove residue
buildup.
4. Rinse screen with hot water.
5. Thoroughly dry lint screen with a clean towel.
Reinstall screen in dryer.

Possible Causes Solution
Dryer Results (cont.)
The dryer is located in a room with
temperature below 45ºF (7ºC). Proper operation of dryer cycles requires temperatures above 45ºF (7ºC).
The dryer is located in a closet. Closet doors must have ventilation openings at the top
and bottom of the door. The front of the dryer requires
a minimum of 1" (25 mm) of airspace, and, for most
installations, the rear of the dryer requires 5" (127 mm).
See the Installation Instructions.
Cycle time is too short
On some models: Clothes are
coming out of the Steam Refresh
cycle with damp or wet spots.
Under certain environmental or installation conditions,
you may experience underdrying.
The automatic cycle is ending
early. Change the dryness level setting on Automatic Cycles. Increasing or decreasing the dryness level will change the
amount of drying time in a cycle. If loads are consistently
ending too early, see also “Changing the Automatic Cycle
settings to increase or decrease drying time.”
Lint on load Lint screen is clogged with lint.
Stains on load Improper use of fabric softener. Add dryer fabric softener sheets at the beginning of the cycle.
Fabric softener sheets added to a partially dried load can
stain your garments. Do not use fabric softener sheets with
steam cycles.
Loads are wrinkled The load was not removed from
dryer at the end of the cycle.
On some models: Select Steam Refresh Cycle to tumble
the load with water and heat. This cycle is best for smoothing
out wrinkles and reducing odors from dry loads consisting of
wrinkle-free cotton, cotton-polyester blends, common knits,
and synthetics.
NOTE: Refer to garment care label instructions. Dry-clean-only
garments are not recommended.
The dryer was tightly packed. Dry smaller loads that can tumble freely. Results may also
vary depending on fabric type.
Clothes are not drying
satisfactorily or drying
times are too long (cont.)
On some models: For steam
cycles, the water is not properly
connected with the dryer.
On some models: Make sure water is connected to the dryer.
Check that water inlet hose is connected to both the faucet
and dryer’s water inlet valve. Check that the water supply is
turned on.
The load is too large and heavy
to dry quickly.
Fabric softener sheets are blocking
the grille. The air outlet grille is just inside the door, behind the lint screen.
Check that it is not blocked by a fabric softener sheet.
Use only one fabric softener sheet, and use it only once.
Separate the load to tumble freely.
The load may not be contacting the
sensor strips on Automatic Cycles. Level the dryer. See the Installation Instructions. All four dryer feet should be in rm contact with the oor.
Clean lint screen before each load.
Stains on drum Loose dyes in clothes. Drum stains are caused by dyes in clothing (usually blue
jeans). These will not transfer to other clothing.
