Press Guard—

On some models

Use this option to minimize the wrinkles

in clothes. It provides approximately 15

minutes of no-heat tumbling after the

clothes are dry.
This option can only be used with the

Automatic cycles.

If the Cycle Signal knob is selected, the

Signal will sound at the end of the drying

time and will sound several times during the
PRESS GUARD

cycle. This will remind you

that it is time to remove the clothes.

Cycle Signal—

On some models

This signal will sound just before the end

of the cycle to remind you to remove the

clothes. On some models the signal sound

level cannot be adjusted.
If you selected the PRESS GUARD option

the signal will sound at the end of the

drying time and will sound several times

during the PRESS GUARD cycle. This will

remind you that it is time to remove the

clothes.

NOTE:

Remove garments promptly at the sound

of the signal. Place clothes on hangers
so wrinkles won’t set in.

Use the Cycle Signal especially when

drying fabrics like polyester knits and
permanent press. These fabrics should
be removed so wrinkles won’t set in.

Drum Lamp—

On some models

Before replacing the light bulb, be sure to

unplug the dryer power cord or disconnect

the dryer at the household distribution

panel by removing the fuse or switching

off the circuit breaker. Reach above dryer

opening from inside the drum. Remove the

bulb and replace with the same size bulb.

Drying Rack—

On some models

A handy drying rack may be used for drying

articles such as stuffed toys, pillows or

washable sweaters.
Hook the rack over the lint filter so the rack

extends into the dryer drum.

NOTE:

The drying rack must be used with the
TIMED CYCLE.

Do not use this drying rack when there

are other clothes in the dryer.
