Drying Rack Option

Use the Drying Rack to dry items such as sweaters and pillows without tumbling. The drum

turns, but the drying rack does not move.
If your model does not have a drying rack, you may be able to purchase one for your model. To
find out whether your model allows drying rack usage and for information on ordering, please
refer to the front page of the manual or contact the dealer from whom you purchased your dryer.
NOTE: The drying rack must be removed for normal tumbling. Do not use the automatic cycle

with the drying rack.
To use the drying rack

Place drying rack in dryer.

Style 1: Your drying rack has front legs. Slide rear pegs into the dimples on the back wall of

the dryer. Lower the front legs to rest on the dryer opening.

DRYER CARE

Cleaning the Dryer Location

Keep dryer area clear and free from items that would obstruct the flow of combustion and
ventilation air.

Cleaning the Lint Screen

Clean lint screen before each load. A screen blocked by lint can increase drying time.

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.

If lint falls off the screen into the dryer during removal, check the exhaust hood and
remove the lint.

Every Load Cleaning

1. The lint screen is located on top of the dryer. Pull the lint screen toward you. 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.

As Needed Cleaning

1. Roll lint off the screen with your fingers.
2. Wet both sides of lint screen with hot water.
