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. 

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. 

7.  Start the dryer. 
NOTE: Check the lint screen and remove any lint accumulated 

from items dried on the drying rack after the cycle is finished. 

CLEANING THE DRYER LOCATION

Keep dryer area clear and free from items that would block the 

air flow for proper dryer operation. This includes clearing piles 

of laundry in front of the dryer.

CLEANING THE DRYER INTERIOR

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

NOTE: Garments that contain unstable dyes, such as denim 

blue jeans or brightly colored cotton items, may discolor the

dryer and will not stain future loads of clothes. Dry unstable 

dye items inside out to avoid transfer of dye.
