FEATURES AND
BENEFITS
The exclusive TOTAL CARE TM System combines the KING
SIZETM load capacity, EVENHEAT TM with Auto Temp Control,
WRINKLE GUARD ®III, and the TUMBLE FREETM heated dryer
rack to ensure total drying care for any type of fabric and load
size,
In automatic drying cycles, the temperature of the clothes is
reduced by automatically turning down the heat as the clothes
become dry. This reduces overdrying and provides better care of
the fabrics in your clothes.
The EVENHEAT TM with Auto Temp Control system for drying uses
dual moisture sensing devices and SENSOR SMART TM controls,
EVENHEAT TM with Auto Temp Control shortens drying time and
dries the load at lower temperatures for optimal fabric care, The
EVENHEAT TM with Auto Temp Control system monitors the
temperature of the heated air to ensure that it is never too hot to
cause fabric damage. It also terminates the cycle when the
clothes are dry to reduce shrinkage.
When the selected level of dryness is reached, the dryer goes
into a cool down period lasting 2-10 minutes. Unlike other dryers
that provide a fixed 10-minute cool down, the length of the
"Smart" cool down is based on the cycle time and selected
dryness setting.
• For small loads or loads that are dried at a lower temperature,
the cool down may be as low as 2 minutes.
• For large loads or loads that are dried at a higher
temperature, the cool down will be closer to 10 minutes.
' < Cy(,,/@
Auto Temperature Control monitors the temperature and moisture
of your clothes and turns down the temperature at the right time.
By sensing the temperature and moisture, jeans come out of the
dryer ready to wear. You can put them on without them being
damp or overdry.

The following is a guide to starting your dryer. Periodic references
to other sections of this manual provide more detailed
information.
1. Check lint screen. Clean if needed.
2. Put laundry into dryer and shut door. See "Loading."
3. Select the cycle you want by pressing one of the pads under
SELECT CYCLE or by selecting TOUCH UP under OPTIONS.
See "Cycles" and "Options." The preset settings for Auto Dry
or Timed Dry will glow. The estimated or actual cycle time (in
minutes) will show inthe display.
• The preset settings provide the recommended fabric care
for your selected cycle. For preset cycle settings, see
"Drying and Cycle Tips."
If desired, you can change the Auto Dry (Estimated) time
by pressing AUTO DRY LEVEL until the desired level of
dryness and estimated dry time are displayed. The Auto
Dry Level saves you time by providing the best drying
results in the shortest time. Electronic sensors determine
the dryness level of your clothes. When your clothes are
almost dry, the drying time automatically changes from
estimated to the actual time remaining in your cycle. For
details, see "Modifiers."
NOTE: To change from an Auto Dry cycle to a Timed Dry
cycle, press MORE TIME or LESS TIME. The time
displayed will be the actual time.
If desired, you can change the Timed Dry (Actual) time by
pressing MORE TIME or LESS TIME until the desired time
is displayed. See "Modifiers."
• For best fabric care, follow garment label instructions.
4. (OPTIONAL STEP) If desired, select OPTIONS. For more
details, see "Options."
5. (OPTIONAL STEP) If desired, set the END OF CYCLE SIGNAL.
6. Press START. Be sure the door is closed.
• If you do not press START within 5 minutes of selecting
the cycle, the dryer will automatically shut off.
• If you wish to end your drying cycle after pressing START,
press STOP/CANCEL twice.
13
To stop your dryer at any time
Press STOP/CANCEL or open the door.
To pause the dryer at any time
Open the door or press STOP/CANCEL once.
To restart the dryer
Close the door and press START.
NOTE: Drying will continue from where the cycle was interrupted
if you close the door and press START within 5 minutes. If the
cycle is interrupted for more than 5 minutes, the dryer will shut
off. You will need to select new cycle settings before restarting
the dryer.
Properly loading your dryer can lower your utility bill and prolong
the life of your garments.
Loading suggestions
• Load the dryer by the amount of space items take up, not by
their weight.
• Do not overload the dryer. This causes uneven drying and
wrinkling.

Select the correct cycle and temperature for your load.
The display shows the estimated cycle time when your dryer is
automatically sensing the dryness level of your load. If a cycle is
using Timed Dry, the display shows the exact number of minutes
remaining in the cycle.
Cool Down tumbles the load without heat during the last few
minutes of all cycles. Cool Down makes the loads easier to
handle. The length of the Cool Down depends on the load size
and dryness level.
Drying tips
• Follow care label directions when they are available.
• If you use fabric softener sheets, use only ones labeled as
dryer safe. Follow package instructions.
• Remove the load from the dryer as soon as tumbling stops to
reduce wrinkling. This is especially important for permanent
press, knits, and synthetic fabrics.
Cycle tips
• Dry most loads using the preset cycle settings,
Use this chart as a guide to dry various loads. Drying
temperature and Auto Dry Level (Normal Dry) are preset when
you choose an Auto Dry cycle. You can select a different
dryness level, depending on your load (see "Modifiers").
• For a Timed cycle, drying temperature is preset, but the time
can be adjusted.

Every load cleaning
The lint screen is located in the door of the dryer. Clean it before
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 fingers. Do not rinse or wash screen to remove lint. Wet
lint is hard to remove.
2. Push the lint screen firmly back into place.
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 off the screen into the dryer during removal, check
the exhaust hood and remove the lint. (See "Venting
Requirements.")
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 the screen.
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 screen with your fingers.
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. Replace screen
in dryer.
To
1.
clean the dryer drum
Make a paste with powdered laundry detergent and very
warm water.
2.
Apply paste to a soft cloth.
OR
Apply a liquid, non-flammable household cleaner to the
stained area and rub with a soft cloth until all excess dye is
removed.
3. Wipe drum thoroughly with damp cloth.
4. Tumble a load of clean cloths or towels to dry the drum.
NOTE: Garments which contain unstable dyes, such as denim
blue jeans or brightly colored cotton items, may discolor the
interior. These stains are not harmful to your dryer and will not
stain future loads of clothes. Dry unstable dye items inside out to
prevent dye transfer.
[:::i@[ l,;+_II'_11I]¢c(, _IIll,,ll_:_t@(5L I[
From Inside the Dryer Cabinet:
Lint should be removed every 2 years or more often, depending

If the dryer hasn't been used for a while, there may be a
thumping sound during the first few minutes of operation.
The gas valve clicking is a normal operating sound.
Lint on load
• Is the lint screen clogged?
Clean lint screen. Check for air movement.
Is the exhaust vent or outside exhaust hood clogged with lint, •
restricting air movement? Run the dryer for 5-10 minutes.
Hold your hand under the outside exhaust hood to check air
movement. If you do not feel air movement, clean exhaust
system of lint or replace exhaust vent with heavy metal or •
flexible metal vent (see "Installation Instructions").
Is the exhaust vent crushed or kinked? Replace with a heavy
metal vent (see "Installation Instructions").
Has a fuse blown, or a circuit breaker tripped?
Has an Air Dry cycle been selected? Select the right cycle for •
the types of garments being dried (see "Cycles").
Is the automatic cycle ending early? The load may not be
contacting the electronic sensor strips, level the dryer.
Is the valve open on the gas supply line?
Are fabric softener sheets blocking the grille? Use only one
fabric softener sheet and only use it once.
Is the dryer located in a room with temperature below
45°F (7°C)?
Proper operation of dryer cycles requires temperatures above
45°F (7°0).
• Was a cold rinse water used? Was the load very wet?
Expect longer drying times with items rinsed in cold water
and with items that hold moisture (cottons).

Was the load overdried?
Use correct dryer settings for load type (see "Changing
Cycles, Options and Modifiers"). Overdrying can cause
lint-attracting static electricity,
Was paper or tissue left in pockets?
Is pilling being mistaken for lint?
Pilling (surface fuzz) is caused by normal wear and
laundering.
Stains on load or color change
• Was dryer fabric softener properly used?
