Load the dryer properly
•
Place only one washload in your dryer at a time.
•
Mixed loads of heavy and lightweight fabrics will dry differently, which may result in lightweight fabrics being
dry while heavy fabrics remain damp at the end of a drying cycle.
•
Add one or more similar items to your dryer when only one or two articles of clothing need drying.
This improves the tumbling action and drying efficiency.
•
Overloading restricts tumbling action, resulting in uneven drying as well as excessive wrinkling of some
fabrics.
If you insert laundry into your dryer while it is extremely tangled immediately after your washer has
finished a wash or spin cycle, it may degrade the drying efficiency or cause the door to open. We
recommend that you untangle your laundry appropriately before inserting it.
Getting started
1. Load your dryer loosely (DO NOT overload).
2. Close the door.
3. Select the appropriate cycle and options for the load. (For detail, refer to the "Cycle overview" on next page.)
4. Press the Start/Pause button.
5. The dryer indicator light will illuminate.
6. The estimated cycle time will appear in the display.
The time may fluctuate as humidity levels fluctuate in the dryer.
•
When the cycle is complete, "End" will appear in the display.
•
Pressing Power cancels the cycle and stops your dryer.
•
The Drying, Cooling, and Wrinkle Prevent indicator lights will illuminate during those portions of the
cycle.
Do not place anything on top of your dryer while it is running.
