PartsandFeatures

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.

Do not use plastic vent or flexible metal foil vent.

Use 10.16 cm (4 in)

heavy metal or flexible

metal vent. Do not kink

or crush flexible metal

vent. It must be com-

pletely extended to

allow adequate exhaust

air to flow. Check vent

after installation. Refer

to your Installation

Instructions for proper

length requirements of vent.

2. Use a 10.16 cm (4 in) exhaust hood. Smaller

hoods increase drying

times.

wWARNING

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 7°C (45°F). Also make sure that your dryer

is leveled. Refer to your Installation Instructions for more information.

Venting

Fire Hazard

Use a heavy metal vent.

Do not use a plastic vent.

Do not use a metal foil vent.

Failure to follow these instructions can

result in death or fire.

3. The exhaust vent can be routed up, down, left,

right, or straight out the

back of the dryer. Space

requirements are listed

in your Installation

Instructions.

CheckingYourVent

10.16 cm (4 in)

Venting (cont.)

5. Use duct tape to seal all joints. Do not use screws

to secure vent. Lint may

catch on screws.

4. Use the straightest path possible when routing the

exhaust vent. Use the

fewest number of elbows

and turns. Allow room

when using elbows or

making turns. Bend vent

gradually to avoid kinking.

6. Clean exhaust vent periodically, depending on use,

but at least every 2 years,

or when installing your

dryer in a new location.

•Disconnect vent from

the dryer and clean one

section at a time until

you reach the exhaust

hood.

•Use the hose attach-

ment on your vacuum,

or a pole or wire with a

feather duster or rag attached, to clean out lint.

•Be sure the flapper on the outside end of vent

moves freely.

•When cleaning is complete, be sure to follow the

Installation Instructions supplied with your dryer

for final product check.

CheckingYourVent

The kit contains:

2 - 1.22 m (4 ft) vent sections with attached close

elbows

1 - Wall plate for close clearance installations

2 - 10.16 cm (4 in) clamps

For safe and easy installation of your dryer, a com-

plete exhaust vent kit

is available. SURE

CONNECT Vent Kit

(No. 4396028) con-

tains everything you

need to install your

dryer.

To install vent:

1. Clamp one elbow/vent section

to the wall and one to the dryer.

2. Extend the vent upward, almost

to the top of the dryer, then

push the dryer to the wall.

3. From over the top, snap the

vent together.

Starting your dryer

Before using your dryer, wipe the dryer drum with a

damp cloth to remove dust from storing and shipping.

1. Load clothes loosely into the dryer and close the

door. Do not pack the

dryer; allow space for

clothes to tumble freely.

2. Turn the Cycle Control knob to the recommended

cycle for the type of

load being dried.

Use the Energy

Preferred Automatic

Setting (*) in the Sensor

Dry cycle to dry most

heavyweight and

mediumweight loads.

3. Set the Temperature selector to the recommended

setting for the type of fabric being dried. The cycle

descriptions later in this section include tempera-

ture setting suggestions.

4. (OPTIONAL STEP) Set the End of Cycle Signal

selector to On or to the volume level you prefer

(on some models) if you want the dryer to sound a

signal when a cycle is finished. The signal is

helpful when you are drying permanent press,

synthetics, and other items that should be

removed from the dryer as soon as it stops.

5. (OPTIONAL STEP) Your dryer may have an

On/Off Extra Care selector. The Extra Care fea-

ture protects your clothes from wrinkling when you

do not remove them from the dryer as soon as it

stops.

• Set the Extra Care selector to On to tumble the

load without heat every few minutes up to 45

minutes after the drying cycle ends.

• A signal will sound every few minutes while

Extra Care is running if the End of Cycle Signal

feature is set On.

• Set the Extra Care selector to Off if you do not

want to run this feature.

Fire Hazard

No washer can completely remove oil.

Do not dry anything that has ever had any

type of oil on it (including cooking oils).

Items containing foam, rubber, or plastic

must be dried on a clothesline or by using

an Air Cycle.

Failure to follow these instructions can result

in death or fire.

Explosion Hazard

Keep flammable materials and vapours, such

as gasoline, away from dryer.

Do not dry anything that has ever had

anything flammable on it (even after

washing).

Failure to follow these instructions can

result in death, explosion, or fire.

OperatingYourDryer

Starting your dryer (cont.)

6. Push the Start button. Stopping and restarting your dryer

You can stop your dryer anytime during a cycle.

To stop your dryer:

Open the dryer door or turn the Cycle Control knob

to Off.

NOTE: The Cycle Control knob should point to an

Off area when the dryer is not in use.

To restart your dryer:

Close the door, select a new cycle and temperature

(if desired), and push the Start button.

NOTE: Your dryer stops automatically when a

cycle ends.

Cycle and temperature tips

•In the Automatic cycle (Sensor Dry), the FLO-

THRU™Drying System automatically reduces

the heat near the end of the cycle to prevent

overdrying.

•If your dryer has a special Ultra Low or Extra Low

temperature setting, this reduces drying tempera-

tures and provides enhanced fabric care for

delicates and other fine fabrics.

•If some types of loads in the cycle descriptions

have more than one suggested temperature

setting, choose the lowest setting available on

your dryer.

•The last few minutes of all cycles are without heat

to make the load cooler to handle.

Selecting the right cycle and temperature setting

Drying tips

•Make sure you have selected the correct cycle

and temperature for your load. For example,

select a High temperature setting for best drying

results with extra heavy items.

•Always follow care label directions when they

are available.

•If you use fabric softener sheets, always use

fabric softener sheets labeled as dryer safe and

follow package instructions carefully.

•Remove the load from the dryer as soon as tum-

bling stops to reduce wrinkling. This is especially

important for permanent press, knits, and syn-

thetic fabrics.

OperatingYourDryer

Use the Sensor Dry Automatic cycle for

heavyweight and

mediumweight cotton

items, such as towels,

linens, bedspreads,

work clothes, blue

jeans, and corduroys.

Set your dryer to a heat

setting that matches the

care label directions.

3 camisoles

1 quilted robe

4 slips

4 panties

2 bras

2 nighties

1 baby’s dress

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.

•Dry most loads using the Energy Preferred Auto-

matic Setting (*) in the Sensor Dry cycle.

•For any Automatic setting, you can choose any

temperature setting you want.

•If the load is drier than you like, select a setting

closer to Less Dry the next time you dry a

similar load.

•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

after the cycle ends.

NOTE: If the Extra Care selector is set to Off,

the Sensor Dry cycle ends after cool-down.

A signal will sound every few minutes when Extra

Care is running if the End of Cycle Signal feature

is set On. The signal and cycle stop when you

open the dryer door.
