When first installed, load a damp cloth or old towel and run a cycle to burn off any residual manufacturing oil. You may observe slight smoke or a burning smell, but these will disappear after the first use.
Clean the Lint Filter
If the lint filter has not already been cleaned, lift out the filter and remove the lint from the last load. This will help ensure the fastest and most efficient drying performance. Make sure to reinstall the filter, pressing down until it clicks firmly into place.
Load the Dryer
Make sure that clothing is pushed entirely into the drum and away from the door seal area. Clothing that gets stuck between the door and seal may be damaged or damage the seal.
If the load is extra large, you may need to divide it into smaller loads for proper performance and fabric care.
All strings and attached belts of clothes should be well tied and secured before being put into the drum.
Turn on the Dryer
Press the Power button to turn on the dryer. The cycle LEDs will illuminate and a chime will sound.
Select a Cycle
Turn the cycle selector knob in either direction until the LED for the desired cycle is on. The preset temperature, dry level, and option settings for that cycle will be shown.
Pressing the Start/Pause button without selecting a cycle immediately starts the Normal cycle with the default settings. Turn the cycle selector knob to select the Normal cycle to change the default settings.
Adjust Settings
Default settings for the selected cycle can now be changed, if desired, using the cycle modifier and option buttons.
Not all modifiers and options are available on all cycles. A different chime will sound and the LED will not come on if the selection is not allowed.
Begin Cycle
Press the Start/Pause button to begin the cycle. The cycle can be paused at any time either by opening the door or by pressing the Start/Pause button.
If the Start/Pause button is not pressed within a certain time, the dryer shuts off and all settings are lost.
End of Cycle
When the cycle is finished, the chime will sound. Immediately remove your clothing from the dryer to reduce wrinkling. If Wrinkle Care is selected, the dryer will tumble briefly every few minutes to help prevent wrinkles from setting in the clothes.
