IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING. California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement ActThis act requires the governor of California to publish a list of substances known to the state to cause cancer,birth defects or other reproductive harm and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposureto such substances.Gas appliances can cause minor exposure to four of these substances, namely benzene, carbon monoxide,formaldehyde and soot, caused primarily by the incomplete combustion of natural gas or LP fuels.Properly adjusted dryers will minimize incomplete combustion. Exposure to these substances can beminimized further by properly venting the dryer to the outdoors.

DO NOT OPERATE THE DRYER WITHOUT THE LINT FILTER IN PLACE. ■ Do not wash or dry articles that have been cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with combustible or explosive substances (such aswax, oil, paint, gasoline, degreasers, dry-cleaningsolvents, kerosene, etc.) which may ignite orexplode. Do not add these substances to the wash water. Do not use or place these substancesaround your washer or dryer during operation.■ Do not place items exposed to cooking oils inyour dryer. Items contaminated with cooking oilsmay contribute to a chemical reaction that couldcause a clothes load to catch fire ■ Any article on which you have used a cleaningsolvent or that contains flammable materials(such as cleaning cloths, mops, towels used inbeauty salons, restaurants, or barber shops, etc.)must not be placed in or near the dryer untilsolvents or flammable materials have beenremoved. There are many highly flammableitems used in homes such as acetone, denaturedalcohol, gasoline, kerosene, some householdcleaners, some spot removers, turpentines, waxes, wax removers and products containingpetroleum distillates.■ The laundry process can reduce the flameretardancy of fabrics. To avoid such a result,carefully follow the garment manufacturer’s care instructions.■ Do not dry articles containing rubber, plastic,foam, or similar materials such as padded bras,tennis shoes, galoshes, bath mats, rugs, bibs, babypants, plastic bags, pillows, etc., that may melt orburn.

Operating Instructions Safety InstructionsCustomer Service Troubleshooting Tips About your dryer features. End of Cycle Signal This signal will sound just before the end of the cycle to remind you to remove theclothes. On some models, the signal soundlevel can be adjusted.If you selected the WRINKLE CARE option the signal will sound at the end of thedrying time and will sound several timesduring the WRINKLE CAREcycle. This willremind you that it is time to remove theclothes.NOTE: Remove garments promptly at the sound of the signal. Place clothes on hangers so wrinkles won’t set in. Use the END OF CYCLE SIGNAL especiallywhen drying fabrics like polyester knitsand permanent press. These fabrics should be removed so wrinkles won’t set in. Drum Lamp 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 thecircuit breaker. Reach above dryer openingfrom inside the drum. Remove the bulb andreplace with the same size bulb. Wrinkle Care Use this option to minimize the wrinkles in clothes. It provides approximately 15minutes of no-heat tumbling after theclothes are dry.This option can only be used with theCOTTONS EASY CARE DELICATES, andULTRACAREcycles. If you are using the CYCLESIGNALand you select the WRINKLE CAREoption, a signal will sound at the end of thedrying time and several times during theWRINKLE CAREcycle.

Dryness Sensor Cycle–on some models This feature is only activated in the COTTONS EASY CARE DELICATES, andULTRACAREcycles. The Dryness Sensorprovides greater drying accuracy than standard machines,resulting in shorter dry times and betterclothes care. As the clothes tumble, theytouch a moisture sensor. The sensor willstop the heating cycle as soon as the clotheshave reached the selected dryness.On some models, there is a Dryness Sensor Cycleindicator light. This light isilluminated during automatic cycles.When the Dryness Sensorfeature stops theheating cycle, the light will go out and thecool down period will begin.Note:The clothes will be hot if they areremoved immediately after the indicator light goes out. Dryness Sensor Cycle Color Logic Select the correct FABRIC CAREsetting. Matchthe particular color below the words with thesame color on the Cycle Dial.Example: Drying a load of clothing labeledpermanent press.Choose the FABRIC CAREsetting-—for thisload it would be the EASY CARE MED. HEAT (which is a particular color). Turn the Cycle Dial to the area that hasthe same color as the FABRIC CAREsettingyou have chosen—for this load it would be the EASY CARE AUTOMATIC.
