A Quick Guide to Getting Started

✅ Before you begin

• Double check that all shipping materials are removed from your new dryer.
• Read the Use & Care manual to get familiar with your new dryer.

⚙️ Care and Cleaning

• The dryer is equipped with a clamshell style LuxCare™ Lint Shield filter which must be opened to remove lint collected during a drying cycle. Press the OPEN button to clean the lint filter after every load. See your Use & Care Manual for complete instructions on how to clean your filter.
• A waxy build-up from fabric softener sheets may form on the lint filter or moisture sensing bars. Clean the filter periodically with warm, soapy water, and dry thoroughly before replacing.

Important Reminder: Regularly check the entire outdoor exhaust and venting system and clean any lint build up.

❓ FAQS

What can I do to optimize the drying performance?

After ensuring your lint filter is clean, check to make sure the cycle and settings selected are the right ones for your load type. Avoid overloading your dryer as items need room to tumble freely and use the DRY BOOST option to increase the drying temperature for select drying cycles.

Is it normal for my dryer to make sounds or noises?

Some sounds are part of your dryer's normal operations. You may hear the suspension rollers or exhaust system moving air through the cycle. For gas models, you may hear a clicking sound as the gas valve opens and closes to control the gas flow. Check your Use & Care Manual to learn more.

Cycle settings and options revert to default settings each time the dryer is used. The cycle selector, temperature, and dryness level will be set to normal.

How do I add a forgotten item to the load?

To add an item to the dryer, press START/PAUSE, add the item, close the door and press START/PAUSE again to resume the cycle.
