Follow the guidelines below for preparing the load for drying.

Read the Operating Instructions card for operating your specific model.

• Always read and follow fabric care labels and laundry product labels.

To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or injury to persons,

read Important Safety Instructions, pages 3-4, before operating this dryer.

1. Prepare items for drying.

Dry items of similar fabric, weight and construction in the same load.

Separate dark items from light-colored items. Separate items that shed
lint from those that attract lint. If an item sheds lint, turn it inside out.

Be sure buckles, buttons and trim are heatproof and won't damage the
drum finish. Close zippers, fasten hooks and Velcro®-like fasteners.
Tie strings and sashes to prevent snagging and tangling.

If possible, turn pockets inside out for even drying.

Check for stains which may not have been removed in washing. Dryer
heat may permanently set some stains. Repeat stain removal process
before drying.

Place small items in a mesh bag to prevent tangling and for easy
removal.

2. Check that lint screen is clean and in place.

3. Load the dryer.

The average load will fill the drum 1/3 to 1/2 full. Items need room to
tumble freely for even drying and less wrinkling. Do not overload
dryer.

When drying large items, dry only 2 or 3 at a time. Fill out the load with
small and medium sized items.

For delicate or very small loads, add 2 lint-free towels for better drying,
less wrinkling, and to prevent grease stains caused by fabric softener
sheets.

Do not overdry items. Overdrying can cause wrinkling, shrinkage,
harshness, and a build-up of static electricity, which can produce more
lint.

If desired, add a dryer fabric softener sheet.

4. Close the dryer door and select the cycle, temperature,

dryness level and options desired.

See Operating Instructions for your specific model information.

5.

Press START to begin the cycle.

To add or remove items when the dryer is running open the door. The

dryer will stop when the door is opened. Allow the drum to come to a
complete stop before reaching inside.

Close the door and press START to resume the cycle.

6. When the cycle ends, remove items immediately and hang

or fold.
