CHECK YOUR VENT SYSTEM FOR GOOD AIRFLOW
Maintaining good airflow
n Cleaning your lint screen before each load. n Replace plastic or foil vent material
with 4″ (102 mm) diameter heavy, rigid vent material.

n Use the shortest length of vent possible. n Use no more than four 90° elbows in a vent system;
each bend and curve reduces airflow.

Good

Better

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 the 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.

n Remove lint and debris from the exhaust hood. n 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. n Clear away items from the front of the dryer.

EcoBoostTM option
The EcoBoostTM option will default on only for the Regular/Normal cycle and is only available on that cycle. This option allows you to increase your energy savings by using a slightly lower heat level. The EcoBoostTM option will increase drying times by approximately 40 minutes, which will be reflected on the LED Display. If optimal time is desired, touch ECOBOOST to turn off this option.

Use automatic cycles for better fabric care and energy savings
Using automatic (not timed) 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 the NORMAL dryness level provides the optimal energy savings. When using Timed Dry/Quick Dry, the dryer runs for the amount of time you select, which could result in shrinkage, wrinkling, and static due to over-drying. Use Timed Dry for the occasional damp load that needs a little more drying time or when using the drying rack.

Tips for getting the best performance from your steam dryer (on some models)

n Results may vary depending on fabric. 100% cotton garments with wrinkle-free finish may yield better results than those without. 100% cotton items may require additional touching up after cycles that use steam.
n Use of fabric softener sheet is not recommended with cycles that use steam. It may cause temporary staining on clothes.

n Cycles that use steam are not recommended for items that have been starched. Wash any starched or new garments prior to using a cycle that uses steam.
n The Steam Refresh Cycle is best for smoothing out wrinkles and reducing odors from loads consisting of dry items of wrinkle-free cotton, cotton-polyester blend, common knits, and synthetics.

CONTROL PANEL AND FEATURES
Not all features and cycles are available on all models. NOTE: The control panel features a sensitive surface that responds to a light touch of your finger. To ensure your selections are registered, touch the control panel with your fingertip, not your fingernail. When selecting a setting or option, simply touch the appropriate button.

DRYER CARE
CLEANING THE DRYER LOCATION
Keep dryer area clear and free from items that would block the airflow for proper dryer operation. This includes clearing piles of laundry in front of the dryer.

CLEANING THE LINT SCREEN
Every load cleaning The lint screen is located in the door opening of the dryer. The control panel has an indicator light “Check Lint” to remind you to clean the lint screen after each load. A screen blocked by lint can increase drying time.
To clean: 1. Pull the lint screen straight up. Roll lint off the screen
with your fingers. Do not rinse or wash screen to remove lint. Wet lint is hard to remove.

CLEANING THE DRYER INTERIOR
To clean dryer drum 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 dryer and will not stain future loads of clothes. Dry unstable dye items inside out to avoid transfer of dye.
REMOVING ACCUMULATED LINT
From Inside the Dryer Cabinet Lint should be removed every 2 years, or more often, depending on dryer usage. Cleaning should be done by a qualified appliance servicer or ventilation system cleaner. From the Exhaust Vent Lint should be removed every 2 years, or more often, depending on dryer usage.

2. Push firmly back into place. IMPORTANT: n 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. n If lint falls off the screen into the dryer during removal, check the exhaust hood and remove the lint. See “Venting Requirements” in the Installation Instructions. As-needed cleaning Laundry detergent and fabric softener residue can build up on the lint screen. This buildup can cause longer drying times for your clothes, or cause the dryer to stop before your load is completely dry. The screen is probably clogged if lint falls off while the screen is in the dryer. Clean the lint screen with a nylon brush every 6 months, or more frequently, if it becomes clogged due to a residue buildup. To wash: 1. Roll lint off the screen with your fingers. 2. Wet both sides of lint screen with hot water. 3. Wet a nylon brush with hot water and liquid detergent. Scrub lint screen with the brush to remove residue buildup.
4. Rinse screen with hot water. 5. Thoroughly dry lint screen with a clean towel.
Reinstall screen in dryer.

NON-USE, STORAGE, AND MOVING CARE

SÉCURITÉ DE LA SÉCHEUSE
19

Pour réduire le risque d’incendie dû à des charges contaminées, la partie finale du programme de séchage par culbutage a lieu sans chaleur (période de refroidissement). Éviter d’arrêter une sécheuse en phase de culbutage avant la fin du programme de séchage, à moins de retirer et d’étendre rapidement tous les articles afin que la chaleur se dissipe.
AVERTISSEMENT : RISQUE D’INCENDIE OU D’EXPLOSION Le non-respect des avertissements de sécurité peut causer des dommages à la propriété, des blessures graves, voire la mort. Ne pas entreposer ou utiliser de l’essence ou d’autres vapeurs ou liquides inflammables
à proximité de cet appareil ou de tout autre appareil électroménager. QUE FAIRE DANS LE CAS D’UNE ODEUR DE GAZ :
· Ne pas tenter d’allumer un appareil. · Ne pas toucher à un commutateur électrique; ne pas utiliser le téléphone se trouvant
sur les lieux.
· Évacuer tous les gens de la pièce, de l’édifice ou du quartier. · Appeler immédiatement le fournisseur de gaz d’un téléphone voisin. Suivre ses
instructions.
· À défaut de joindre votre fournisseur de gaz, appeler les pompiers.
L’installation et l’entretien doivent être effectués par un installateur qualifié, une agence de service ou le fournisseur de gaz.

Piédestal de 15″ Les piédestaux aux coloris assortis surélèvent la laveuse et la sécheuse pour les amener à une hauteur d’utilisation plus confortable. Le grand tiroir offre une capacité de rangement pratique. Ensemble de superposition Si l’espace disponible est restreint, l’ensemble de superposition permet à la sécheuse d’être installée par dessus la laveuse.
Grille de séchage La grille de séchage fournit une surface de séchage stationnaire pour les articles tels que les chandails et les chaussures de tennis. Voir la section “Caractéristiques supplémentaires” pour l’information supplémentaire.

VÉRIFICATION D’UNE CIRCULATION D’AIR ADÉQUATE POUR LE SYSTÈME D’ÉVACUATION
Maintenir une bonne circulation d’air en effectuant les opérations suivantes :
n Nettoyer le filtre à charpie avant chaque charge.
n Remplacer le matériau de conduits d’évacuation en plastique ou en aluminium par des conduits d’évacuation lourds et rigides de 4″ (102 mm) de diamètre.

n Toujours employer les conduits d’évacuation les plus courts possible.
n Ne pas utiliser plus de quatre coudes à 90° dans un circuit d’évacuation car chaque inclinaison et courbe réduit le flux d’air.

Circulation d’air adéquate
Une sécheuse a besoin de chaleur et d’une circulation d’air adéquate pour sécher efficacement le linge. Une ventilation adéquate réduit les durées de séchage et accroît les économies d’énergie. Voir les Instructions d’installation. Le système d’évacuation fixé à la sécheuse joue un rôle important dans la circulation de l’air. Des conduits d’évacuation bloqués ou écrasés, ainsi qu’une installation inadéquate de l’évacuation diminuent la circulation d’air et les performances de la sécheuse. Les interventions de dépannage causées par une ventilation incorrecte ne sont pas couvertes par la garantie et seront à la charge du client, quel que soit l’installateur de la sécheuse. Pour nettoyer ou réparer l’évacuation d’air, contacter un technicien qualifié dans l’évacuation d’air.

n Retirer la charpie et les résidus du clapet d’évacuation. n Retirer la charpie sur toute la longueur du circuit
d’évacuation au moins tous les 2 ans. Après le nettoyage, veuillez suivre les instructions d’installation fournies avec la sécheuse pour une vérification finale de l’appareil. n Dégager tout article qui se trouverait devant la sécheuse.

L’option EcoBoostTM (puissance éco)
L’option EcoBoostTM s’active par défaut avec le programme Regular/Normal (ordinaire/normal) et ne peut être activée qu’avec ce programme. Cette option permet d’accroître vos économies d’énergie en utilisant un niveau de chaleur légèrement plus faible. L’option EcoBoostTM augmente le temps de séchage d’environ 40 minutes, ce qui paraîtra sur l’affichage à DEL. Pour obtenir un temps de séchage optimal, appuyer sur ECOBOOST pour désactiver l’option.

Utiliser des programmes automatiques pour un meilleur soin du tissu et davantage d’économies d’énergie
Durant ces programmes automatiques (pas minuté), la température de séchage de l’air et le niveau d’humidité sont détectés dans la charge. Ce processus de détection se produit tout au long du programme de séchage et s’arrête lorsque la charge atteint le degré de séchage sélectionné. Utiliser le niveau de séchage NORMAL pour permettre de réaliser un maximum d’économies d’énergie. Avec l’option de séchage minuté/rapide, la sécheuse fonctionne pendant la durée réglée, ce qui peut entraîner le rétrécissement ou le froissement du linge et l’accumulation d’électricité statique due au séchage excessif. Utiliser le séchage minuté pour une charge encore humide nécessitant un peu de temps supplémentaire ou lors de l’utilisation de la grille de séchage.

Conseils pour obtenir la meilleure performance de votre sécheuse avec vapeur (sur certains modèles)

n Les résultats peuvent varier selon le tissu. Il est possible que les vêtements 100 % coton avec fini infroissable donnent de meilleurs résultats que les autres. Il est possible que les articles 100 % coton nécessitent un rafraîchissement supplémentaire après le programme à vapeur.
n L’emploi d’une feuille d’assouplissant de tissu n’est pas recommandé avec les programmes à vapeur. Ceci pourrait causer des tâches temporaires sur les vêtements.

n L’utilisation de programmes à vapeur n’est pas recommandée pour des articles amidonnés. Laver les articles amidonnés ou neufs avant d’utiliser un programme avec vapeur.
n Le programme Steam Refresh (rafraîchissement avec vapeur) est idéal pour aplanir les faux-plis et réduire les odeurs des charges composées d’un ou quatre articles en coton infroissable, en mélange de coton et polyester, de tricots ordinaires et de vêtements synthétiques.

TABLEAU DE COMMANDE ET CARACTÉRISTIQUES

Certains programmes et options ne sont pas disponibles sur certains modèles. REMARQUE : La surface du tableau de commande est très sensible et il suffit d’un léger toucher pour l’activer. Pour s’assurer que vos sélections ont été enregistrées, toucher le tableau de commande du bout du doigt et non avec l’ongle. Pour sélectionner un réglage ou une option, il suffit de toucher le bouton qui lui correspond.
