Check Your Vent System For Good Airflow

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. Blocked or crushed vents as well
as improper venting installation will reduce airflow and
dryer performance.
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. To clean or repair venting, contact
a venting specialist.
What To Dry and How To Dry? for better fabric care and energy savings.
By answering these questions, you can achieve the most energy savings and enhanced fabric care from your dryer. Using these
automatic cycles, the drying air temperature and moisture levels are sensed in the load. This sensing process occurs throughout
the entire drying cycle and turns off once the load reaches your selected dryness level. Using a dryness level between Less and
More provides the optimal energy savings.
If Timed Dry is your answer, the dryer runs for the amount of time you select, which sometimes results in shrinkage, wrinkling,
and static due to overdrying. Use Timed Dry for the occasional damp load that needs a little more drying time or when using
the drying rack.
