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. On models with a 3-piece lint filter, make sure to check and clean both the 2-piece inner and outer lint filters.
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.
Load the dryer with the wet laundry from the washer. 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.
Press a cycle button to select a cycle. The preset temperature, dry level, and option settings for that cycle will be shown.
Adjust the 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 the 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.
On some models, the door automatically locks when the cycle starts. To open the door during a cycle, pause the cycle.
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.
