Check Your Vent System For Good Airflow - Whirlpool YWET4024HW Guide D'utilisation Et D'entretien

Fire Hazard
Use a heavy metal vent.
Do not use a plastic vent.
Do not use a metal foil vent.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in
death or fire.
Good airflow
Along with heat, dryers require good airflow to efficiently dry
laundry. Proper venting will reduce your drying times
and improve your energy savings. See Installation
Instructions.
The venting system attached to the dryer plays a big role
in good airflow.
Service calls caused by improper venting are not covered
by the warranty and will be paid by the customer,
regardless of who installed the dryer.
Use Automatic cycles for better fabric care and energy savings
Use the Automatic Dry cycles to provide the most energy savings and enhanced fabric care from the dryer. During Automatic
Dry cycles, drying air temperature or moisture level are sensed in the load. This sensing occurs throughout the drying cycle, and
the dryer shuts off when the load reaches the selected dryness.
With Timed Drying, the dryer runs the amount of time set and sometimes results in shrinkage, wrinkling, and static due to
overdrying. Use Timed Drying for the occasional damp load that needs a little more drying time.

Clean your lint screen before each load.
Replace plastic or foil vent material with 4" (102 mm)
diameter heavy, rigid vent material.
Use the shortest length of vent possible.
Use no more than four 90° elbows in a vent system;
each bend and curve reduces airflow.
Good Better
Remove lint and debris from the exhaust hood.
Remove lint from the entire length of the vent system
at least every 2 years. When cleaning is complete,
be sure to follow the Installation Instructions supplied
with your dryer for final product check.
Clear away items from the front of the dryer.
