Understanding Dryer Safety
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING – To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using the
dryer, follow basic precautions, including the following:
•Read all instructions before using
the dryer.
•Do not repair or replace any part of the
dryer or attempt any servicing unless
specifically recommended in this Use and
Care Guide or in published user-repair in-
structions that you understand and have
the skills to carry out.
•Do not use fabric softeners or products to
eliminate static unless recommended by
the manufacturer of the fabric softener or
product.
•Do not dry articles that have been previ-
ously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in,
or spotted with gasoline, dry-cleaning sol-
vents, other flammable, or explosive sub-
stances as they give off vapors that could
ignite or explode.
• Do not allow children to play on or in
the dryer. Close supervision of children
is necessary when the dryer is used
near children.
•Do not use heat to dry articles containing
foam rubber or similarly textured rubber-
like materials.
•Before the dryer is removed from service
or discarded, remove the door to the dry-
ing compartment.
•Clean lint screen before or after each load.
•Keep area around the exhaust opening
and adjacent surrounding areas free from
the accumulation of lint, dust, and dirt.
•The interior of the dryer and exhaust vent
should be cleaned periodically by qualified
service personnel.
•Do not reach into the dryer if the drum
is moving.
•Do not install or store the dryer where
it will be exposed to the weather.

Checking Your Vent
Your dryer must be properly installed and vented to achieve maximum drying efficiency and shorten
drying times. Use the minimum recommended installation clearances (found in your Installation
Instructions) to avoid blocking the flow of combustion and ventilation air. Install your dryer in a well-
ventilated room where the temperature is always above 45°F (7°C). Also make sure that your dryer
is leveled. Refer to your Installation Instructions for more information.

in your Installation
Instructions.
If the dryer is not properly installed and vented, it
will not be covered under the warranty.
NOTE: Service calls caused by improper venting
will be paid for by the customer, whether it was a paid
installation or self-installed. For paid installation, call
the company that installed the vent for
adjustment.
1. Do not use plastic vent or flexible metal foil vent.
Use 4-inch heavy metal
or flexible metal vent.
Do not kink or crush

adequate exhaust air
to flow. Check vent after

Automatic cycle
Your dryer has an Automatic cycle, Sensor Dry.
Sensor Dry uses an electronic dryness sensor con-
trol that senses the amount of moisture in the load
and shuts off the dryer when the selected dryness is
reached. The Cycle Control knob does not move
until the load is almost dry. After the cool-down, the
knob automatically turns to an Off area and tumbling
stops.
If the load is not as dry as you like, complete dry-
ing using the Timed Dry cycle (see next page).
Select a setting closer to More Dry the next time
you dry a similar load.

•
The Extra Care feature (on some models) protects
your clothing from wrinkles if you are unable to
unload the dryer within 5 minutes after tumbling
stops. The Extra Care feature tumbles the load
without heat every few minutes up to 45 minutes

If the load is drier than you like, select a setting
closer to Less Dry the next time you dry a

Caring for Your Dryer
Proper care of your dryer can extend its life and help your dryer operate efficiently.
Cleaning the lint screen
Every load cleaning
As needed cleaning
The lint screen is located under a lid on top of the
dryer. Clean it before each load. A screen
blocked by lint can increase drying time.
Laundry detergents and fabric softeners can cause
a residue buildup on the lint screen. This buildup
can cause longer drying times for your clothes, or
cause the dryer to stop before your load is com-
pletely dry. You may be able to see this buildup, or
the lint may be falling off the screen because it is
clogged.
To clean:
1. Open the lid and pull the lint screen towards you.
Clean the lint screen with a nylon brush every six
months or more frequently if it becomes clogged
due to a residue buildup.
Use the following method:
1. Wet both sides of lint screen with hot water.
2. Wet a nylon brush with hot water and liquid deter-
gent; scrub lint screen
with the brush to remove
residue buildup.
2. Roll lint off the screen with your fingers. Do not
rinse or wash screen to
remove lint. Wet lint is
hard to remove.
3. Rinse screen with hot water.
4. Thoroughly dry lint screen with a clean towel;
replace in dryer.
3. Push the lint screen firmly back into place and
close the lid.
IMPORTANT:
• 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.
• Some towels made of synthetic fibers and natural
fibers (polyester and cotton blends) may shed
more lint than other towels, causing your dryer’s
lint screen to fill up faster. Be sure to remove lint
from the lint screen before and after drying new
towels.
• If lint falls into chute, double-check exhaust hood
and clean out lint, if necessary.

Caring for Your Dryer
Cleaning the dryer interior
Garments which contain unstable dyes, such as
denim blue jeans or brightly colored cotton items,
may discolor the dryer interior. These stains are not
harmful to your dryer and will not stain future loads of
clothes. It may be helpful to dry unstable dye items
inside out to prevent dye transfer.
wWARNING
NOTE: Even after cleaning, these stains may
reappear when similar loads are dried.
To clean dryer drum:

Failure to do so can result in death,
explosion, or fire.
2. Apply paste to a soft cloth.
OR
Apply a liquid, non-flammable household cleaner
to the stained area and rub with a

removed.
3. Wipe drum thoroughly with a damp cloth.
4. Tumble a load of clean cloths or towels to dry

Troubleshooting
Common dryer problems
3. No heat
1. Dryer will not start.
For gas dryers, is the valve open on the
supply line? Also, some dryers may
have an internal gas valve.
Is the dryer door firmly closed?
▼
For electric dryers, have you blown a
fuse or tripped a circuit breaker?
Electric dryers use 2 household fuses
or breakers. The drum may be turning
but you may not have heat.
▼
Are the controls set in an On position?
▼
Did you firmly push the Start Button?
4. Noises
Does lint screen need to be cleaned
(lint alert)?
▼
If the dryer hasn’t been used for awhile,
there may be a thumping sound during
the first few minutes of operation.
Is the power cord plugged in?
If noises continue, call the Consumer Assistance
Center.
▼
5. Odor
When operating a new dryer, the new electric heating
element may have an odor.
Have you blown a fuse or tripped the
circuit breaker? Electric dryers use
2 household fuses or breakers.
Are household chemical odors being
drawn into dryer? Proper ventilation
must be used if painting or staining near
the dryer.
NOTE: Store and use paints, varnishes, etc. away
from your dryer whenever possible.
2. Lint accumulation in hood or exhaust
vent, or extended drying times.
Is the lint screen full?
If you still have problems, see the “Requesting
Assistance or Service” section on page 19.
▼
Is the exhaust vent or outside exhaust
hood clogged with lint? Refer to the
“Venting” section on pages 6-7.
