Mobile home installations require:• Metal exhaust system hardware which

is available for purchase from yourlocal Sears store or Sears ServiceCenter.

• Special previsions must be made inmobile homes to introduce outside airinto the dryer. The opening (such as anearby window) should be at leasttwice as large as the dryer exhaustopening

Electrical RequirementsIt is your responsibility:• To contact a qualified electrical

installer.• To be sure that the electrical connec-

tion is adequate and in conformancewith the National Electrical Code,ANSl/NFPA 70-latest edition and alllocal codes and ordinances.

A copy of the above code standardscan be obtained from: National FireProtection Association, BatterymamhPark, Quincy, MA 02269.

• To supply the required 3 or 4 wire, sin-gle phase, 120/240-volt, 60-Hz., AC-only electrical supply (or 3 or 4 wire,120/208-volt electrical supply, if speci-fied on the serial/rating plate) on aseparate 30-amp circuit, fused on bothsides of the line. A time-delay fuse orcircuit breaker is recommended.Connect to an individual branch circuit.Do not have a fuse in the neutral orgrounding circuit.

• Do not use an extension cord.

• If codes permit and a separate groundwire is used, it is recommended that aqualified electrician determine that theground path is adequate.

Electrical Connection

To properly install your dryer, you mustdetermine the type of electrical connec-tion you will be using and follow theinstructions provided for it here.

• If local codes do not permit the con-nection of a cabinet ground connectorto the neutral wire, see "Optional 3-wireconnection" section.

• This dryer is manufactured with a 3-wire, cabinet-ground conductor con-nected to the NEUTRAL (white or cen-ter wire) of the wiring harness at theterminal block.

• Use a 4-wire conductor cord when thedryer is installed in a mobile home oran area where local codes do not per-mit grounding through the neutral.

If using a power supply cord:

Use a UL approved power supply cord kitmarked for use with clothes dryers, thekit should contain:

• A UL approved 30 amp power supplycord, rated 120/240 volt minimum. Thecord should be type SRD or SRDT andbe at least 4 ft (1.22 m) long. The wiresthat connect to the dryer must end inring terminals or spade terminals withupturned ends.

• A UL approved strain relief.If your outlet looks like this:

©4_wire receptacle (14_30R)

Then choose a 4-wire power supply cordwith ring or spade terminals and ULapproved strain relief. The 4-wire powersupply cord, at least 4 ft (1.22 m) long,must have 4, 10 gauge solid copperwires and match a 4-wire receptacle ofNEMA Type 14-30R. The ground wire(ground conductor) may be either greenor bare. The neutral conductor must beidentified by a white cover.

If your outlet looks like this:

©3_wire receptacle (10_30R)

Then choose a 3-wire power supply cordwith ring or spade terminals and ULapproved strain relief. The 3-wire powersupply cord, at least 4 ft (1.22 m) long,must have 3, No.-10 copper wires andmatch a 3-wire receptacle of NEMA Type10-30R.

If connecting by direct wire:Power supply cable must match powersupply (4-wire or 3-wire) and be:• Flexible armored or non-metallic

sheathed copper cable (with groundwire). All current-carrying wires mustbe insulated.

• 10 gauge solid copper wire (Do not usealuminum.)

• At least 4 ft (1.22 m) long

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

• For a grounded, cord-connected dryer:This dryer must be grounded. In theevent of malfunction or breakdown,grounding will reduce the risk of electricshock by providing a path of least resis-tance for electric current. This dryeruses a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a groundingplug. The plug must be plugged into anappropriate outlet that is properlyinstalled and grounded in accordancewith all local codes and ordinances.

• For a permanently connected dryer:This dryer must be connected to agrounded metal, permanent wiringsystem, or an equipment-groundingconductor must be run with the circuitconductors and connected to the equip-ment-grounding terminal or lead on thedryer.

WARNING: Improper connectionof the equipment-grounding conductorcan result in a risk of electric shock.Check with a qualified electrician orservice representative or personnel ifyou are in doubt as to whether theappliance is properly grounded.Do notmodify the plug on the power supplycord: if it will not fit the outlet, have aproper outlet installed by a qualifiedelectrician.

CYCLE DESCRIPTIONS

The automatic cycles save you timeby providing the best drying resultsin the shortest time. This can helpyou save money on utility bills andreduce the risk of fabric damage.

Using Automatic Drying Cycles• Set the Cycle Selector Control (Timer)

to NORMAL DRY(*) which is good formost fabrics.

• At the end of the cycle, feel the driedclothes. If they are damp, select MOREDRY the next time you do a similar load.If they are overdried, select LESS DRYthe next time you do a similar load.

• If your dryer has an End of CycleSignal, it will sound (if selected) oncethe cycle is completed. Select modelsfeature a non-adjustable End of CycleSignal.

• If you do not unload the dryer at the endof an automatic cycle, WRINKLEGUARD ®will start automatically, if avail-able. See "Using WRINKLE GUARD ®"

AUTO DRY CYCLE

NOTE: Dryers that do not have aFABRIC/TEMPERATURE Control giveyou a choice of settings for High Heator Low Heat on the Cycle SelectorControl (Timer).

On Dryers with AUTO MOISTURESENSING

• Dryness is determined by an electronicsensor that "feels" the amount of

moisture in clothes as they pass over it.When the dryness selected is reached,the dryer goes into a 10-minute (approx-imately) Cool Down period.

TIMED DRY CYCLE

Use this cycle to get to 60, 70, 80, or 90minutes (depending on model) of heateddrying time.

• The heating cycle is followed by a 10-minute (approximately) Cool Downperiod.

• If your dryer has an End of CycleSignal, it will sound (if selected) oncethe cycle is completed. Select modelsfeature a non-adjustable End of CycleSignal.

TOUCH UP CYCLE

Use AUTO DRY for most loads. Dryingtime varies according to type of fabric,size of load, and dryness setting.

On Dryers with AUTO DRY I• Dryness is determined by thermostats

that react to the amount of moisturein the air exhausted from the dryer.Moist air indicates clothes are still damp.Dry air indicates that moisture has beenremoved.

Use this cycle to smooth synthetic andpermanent press clothes that are cleanbut wrinkled from being crowded in acloset or suitcase.

• This setting provides about 15 minutesof heated drying time followed by a 1g-minute (approximately) Cool Downperiod.

• If your dryer has an End of CycleSignal, it will sound (if selected) once

PUSH TO START BUTTON

Use this control to start the dryer.Be sure the dryer door is closed.

Opening the door stops the dryer. Itwill not start again until you close thedoor and press the PUSH TO STARTButton. Be sure the Cycle SelectorControl (Timer) is still on a dry setting.

EVENHEAT TM WITHAUTO MOISTURESENSING PLUS

EVENHEAT v with Auto Moisture SensingPlus is the only system that uses 2 differ-ent sensors to "understand" how fast a

load is drying and adjusts time and tem-perature for optimal fabric care.

This cycle uses 2 moisture-sensing stripsin the back of the dryer. When the stripsno longer "feel" any moisture in theclothes, the dryer automatically turns offto prevent overdrying and shrinking.

COOL DOWN

Approximately 10 minutes before the endof the AUTO DRY, AUTO MOISTURESENSING and TIMED DRY Cycles,clothes are tumbled without heat to helpreduce wrinkles and make clothes morecomfortable to handle.

WRINKLE GUARD ® helps keep your per-manent press items wrinkle free whenyou don't unload the dryer promptly at theend of the automatic cycle.

If you do not open the door at the endof the automatic cycle, WRINKLEGUARD ®will tumble the clothes withoutheat.

• On dryers with WRINKLE GUARD ® I,the dryer will tumble the clothescontinuously for about 30 minutesunless you open the dryer door.

• On dryers with WRINKLE GUARD ® III,periodic tumbling every 15 seconds willcontinue for about 21/2 hours unless youopen the dryer door.

• WRINKLE GUARD ® III has a

selectable ON/OFF Option. WhenWRINKLE GUARD ® Ill is set at OFF, thedryer stops after Cool Down and may beunloaded.

The End of Cycle Signal will soundafter each period of tumbling, unless itis off.

DRYER RACK

On some models, the dryer rack wasshipped on top of your dryer. Removeand discard shipping blocks before using.

Use the Dryer Rack for items that you donot want to tumble dry, such as sweaters.When you use the dryer rack, the heatedair inside the dryer flows in a concentrat-ed pattern to allow efficient and uniformdrying. Use TIMED DRY to select thedesired time.

To use the dryer rack:

1. Slide rear pegs into the dimples on theback wall of the dryer. Lower the frontlegs to rest on the dryer opening.

NOTE: Do not allow items to hang overthe edge of the rack.

3. Select a timed drying cycle and temperature, or an air cycle. Itemscontaining foam, rubber, or plasticmust be dried on a clothesline or byusing an air cycle.

4. Push the START button.

NOTE: The rack must be removed fornormal tumbling. Do not use theautomatic cycle with the dryer rack.

2. Put the wet items on top of the rack.Leave space between the items so aircan reach all the surfaces. Close thedoor.

This chart shows examples of items that can be rack-dried and the suggestedcycle, temperature setting, and drying time. Actual drying time will depend onthe amount of moisture items hold.

PREPARING CLOTHES SORTING CLOTHESFOR DRYING

Follow these recommendationsto help save on your utility bills andprolong the life of your garments.

• Refer to your Washer Owner's Manualfor proper washing techniques andadditional laundry tips.

DRYING TIPS

• Close zippers, snaps, and hooks toavoid snagging other items. Removeheat-sensitive trim that can be damagedby drying. Tie strings and sashes so theywill not tangle.

• Check garments for spots and stains leftafter washing. Do not tumble theseitems. Heat may permanently set stains.

•Check pockets before drying. Sharpor metal objects can damage yourdryer. Do not lay these objects onyour dryer, they can damage thefinish. Turn pockets of heaw itemsinside out for even drying.

• Place small items such as babysocks or hankies in laundry bag for easyremoval.

• Articles to be ironed should beremoved while still damp.

• Separate dark colors from light colors,colorfast from non-colorfast. Items prop-erly sorted by color for washingare usually properly sorted for drying.

• Separate heavy fabrics (denim,towels) from light fabrics (synthetics,permanent press).

• Separate lint givers (towels, chenille)from lint takers (corduroy, synthetics,permanent press). When possible,turn lint takers inside out.

25

CHOOSING LOAD SIZES

• Mix large items with small items.Load the dryer by the amount of spaceitems take up, not by their weight. Donot overload the dryer. Overcrowdingcauses uneven drying and wrinkling,and can cause items to wear out faster(because of pilling).

• You may need to rearrange large items(sheets, blankets, tablecloths) duringa cycle to reduce bailing or rolling up.

• For better tumbling action, when dryingonly a few small items, add one or twolint-free towels. This also prevents smalllightweight items from blocking airflow.

USING DRYER

FABRIC SOFTENERS

Dryer fabric softeners are recommendedfor reducing static cling. Always followpackage instructions carefully.

• Put one fabric softener sheet on topof the load before starting the dryer.Do not add a fabric softener sheet after

the drying cycle has started. Instant heatcan cause the fabric softener to spotfabrics.

• Remove fabric softener stains bywetting the stains and rubbing them withliquid detergent or bar soap and rewash.

• Some fabric softeners can clog thelint screen and slow drying. Use fabricsofteners labeled as dryer safe.

SAVING ENERGY

• Sort load by fabric weight and type.

• Use the preset cycle settings to drymost loads.

• Dry full loads when possible. Do notoverdry.

• Avoid overloading dryer, adding wetitems to a partly dried load, or openingthe door unnecessarily.

• Shorten drying times by exhaustingdryer properly and cleaning exhaustvent and outside exhaust hood asneeded.

• Keep the lint screen clean.

• Use dryer where room air temperatureis above 45°F (7°C).

26

CLEANING YOUR DRYER

Proper care of your dryer can extend itslife and help you avoid costlyservice calls.

Explosion HazardUse nonflammable cleaner.

Failure to do so can result in death,explosion, or fire.

To clean dryer drum:

1. Make a paste with detergent and verywarm water and apply to a soft cloth.

2. Scrub area until all excess dye isremoved.

3. Wipe thoroughly with a damp cloth.

4. Tumble a lead of clean towels for 20minutes to dry.

NOTE: Garments that contain unstabledyes, such as denim blue jeans orbrightly colored cotton items, may discolorthe drum interior. These stains are netharmful to your dryer and will not stainfuture loads of clothes. It is helpful to dryunstable dye items inside out to preventdye transfer.

27

CLEANING THE LINT SCREEN

Remove Lint Before Every LoadThe lint screen is located on top of yourdryer. Remove lint before starting everyload. A screen blocked by lint canincrease drying time.

To clean:

1. Pull out lint screen.

2. Roll lintoff the screen with your fingers.Do not rinse or wash screen to removelint. Wet lint is hard to remove.

Wash Lint Screen As Needed

Laundry detergents and fabric softenerscan cause a residue buildup on the lintscreen. Wash the lint screen with a nylonbrush if it becomes clogged due to aresidue buildup.

To wash:

1. Wet both sides of lint screen with hotwater.

2. Wet a nylon brush with hot water andliquid detergent; scrub lint screen withthe brush to remove residue buildup.

3. Rinse lint screen with hot water.

4. Thoroughly dry lint screen with a cleantowel; replace in dryer.

3. Push the lint screen firmly back intoplace.

IMPORTANT:

• Do not run the dryer with the lint screenloose, damaged, blocked, or missing.Doing so can cause overheating anddamage to both the dryer and fabrics.

• Some towels made of synthetic fibersand natural fibers (polyester and cottonblends) may shed more lint than othertowels, causing your dryer's lint screento fill up faster. Be sure to remove lintfrom the lint screen before and afterdrying new towels.

28
