CHECK YOUR VENT SYSTEM FOR GOOD AIR FLOW
Good Air Flow
Along with heat, dryers require good air flow 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 air flow.
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 Sensor Cycles for Better Fabric Care and Energy Savings
Use the Sensor Cycles to provide the most energy savings and enhanced fabric care from the dryer. During Sensor Cycles, drying 
air temperature and 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 Dry, the dryer runs the amount of time set and sometimes results 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.
 
Cleaning 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 air flow.
 
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 the dryer.
