ADDITIONAL FEATURES

USING THE DRYING RACK
To purchase a drying rack for your dryer, order by calling
1-877-944-7566. You will need your model and serial number
and the purchase date. Remove and discard any packing
material before use.
Use the Drying Rack for items that you do not want to tumble
dry, such as sweaters and tennis shoes. When you use the
drying rack, the drum continues to turn, but the rack remains
stationary.
The drying rack is intended for use with the Timed Dry cycle
only. The drying rack cannot be used with Sensor cycles.
To use the drying rack:
IMPORTANT: Do not remove the lint screen.
1. Open dryer door.
2. Align the two hooks on the front of the drying rack with the
holes in the dryer door opening and press down fully into
holes. Rest the rear support on the dryer back ledge.
3. Place wet items on top of the drying rack. Allow space
around items for air to circulate. The drying rack does not
move, but the drum will rotate; be sure to leave adequate
clearance between items and the inside of the dryer drum.
Make sure items do not hang over the edges or between
drying rack grille.
4. Close the door.
5. Select a Timed Dry/Air Only/Air Dry, or Low Temperature
cycle. Items containing foam, rubber, or plastic must be
dried on a clothesline or by using the Air Only setting
or Air Dry cycle, depending on model.
6. When the cycle is selected, the Estimated Time Remaining
display shows the default time. You can change the actual
time in the cycle by increasing or decreasing the cycle time.

air flow for proper dryer operation. This includes clearing piles
of laundry in front of the dryer.
CLEANING THE DRYER INTERIOR

1. Use a mild hand dish detergent mixed at a low
concentration with very warm water, and rub with
a soft cloth.
2. Rinse well with a wet sponge or towel.
3. Tumble a load of clean clothes or towels to dry drum
OR
Use a microfiber cloth and hot water in a spray bottle
to clean the drum and a second microfiber towel to dry.
NOTE: Garments that contain unstable dyes, such as denim
blue jeans or brightly colored cotton items, may discolor the
rear of the dryer interior. These stains are not harmful to your
