    EASY OF USE

    An entire selection of user-friendly functions make operating the dryer easy.

    USING THE RLM (REMOTE LAUNDRY MONITOR) (DLE5944WM, DLG5955WM)The RLM monitors status of your washer and/or dryer. You can plug the display unit into any poweroutlet in your home. The RLM Display Unit can be purchased separately for this dryer.

    Your dryer provides sensor drying and time drying programs.Sensor Dry : Dryer senses electronically laundry humidity and it automatically determines operation timebased on the dryness of the load and the selected program. At times, you can see sudden increase ordecrease on operation time. It happens because a sensor will detect laundry humidity with a certain period.Sudden change on operation time is not a malfunction.Time Dry : Time Dry is that you can set operation time manually to complete drying. Or use Time Dry to havedrying performance if clothes are still damp after sensor dry cycle is finished. Time Dry is more effective forheavyweight and bulky items such as king-size bed sheets and thick work clothes.

  • Exhaust and Dryer Maintenance

    WARNING!Disconnect the dryer!s e!ectric Powerprior to any cleaning or maintenance,

    1. After one year of use, the interior and completeexhaust system of the dryer should be examinedand cleaned if necessary.

    2. Before one year of use, when drying performancehas been suddenly unsatisfied in the past severalcases, please examine and clean the exhaust ductfor better drying performance.

    3. Check the weather hoods frequently to ensurethe dampers are moving freely, that the dampersare not pushed in and that nothing has been setagainst the dampers.

    4. A qualified service person or company should beused to perform this maintenance.

    5. A Flexible Metal Vent Kit, available at extra cost,can be used to exhaust the dryer when it is placedin hard to reach places. This Kit comes in twopieces, one of which is attached to the dryer andthe other is attached to the wall exhaust outlet.Following attachment of the two separate piecesto the dryer and the wall, the dryer may bereturned to its final position, after which the twopieces themselves can be connected.

    7. Ordinarily, the dryer drum will need no care.Wipe the exterior of the dryer as required, andalways immediately wipe the exterior of thedryer in the event any detergent, bleach, or otherwashing products is spilled on the dryer, becausethese products may cause permanent damage tothe exterior finish of the dryer.

    8. Clean the control panel with a damp cloth asnecessary. Warning: spray pre-wash productsmay damage the finish of the control panel.

    9. Please clean the lint filter either before dryingeach load or after drying each load.

    10. Always make sure the lint filter is clean beforestarting a new load, because a clogged lint filtermay increase drying times.

    11. Annually remove the lint filter and attach it tothe vacuum duct. See item #2 above.

    12. Please note that the wiring diagram is providedinside the dryer control hood. Label all wiresprior to disconnection when servicing the dryer,because wiring errors can cause serious injuryto you and your dryer.

    Cleaning the Lint Screen1. Clean the lint filter either before drying each load

    or alter drying each load. Always make sure thelint filter is clean before starting a new load,because a clogged lint filter may increase dryingtimes.

    .

    .

    .

    To clean, pull the lint screen straight up and rollany lint off the screen with your fingers.Do not rinse or wash screen to remove lint,because wet lint is hard to remove. Push the lintscreen firmly back into place.

    Always ensure the lint screen is firmly securedbefore running the dryer. Running the dryer witha loose lint screen may cause overheating anddamage to the dryer and articles being dried.

    Some articles of clothing may shed more lint thanothers (towels for example), causing the LintScreen to rapidly fill. Remove lint from the lintscreen before and after drying these articles, suchas new towels.

    .

    .

    In the event lint falls off of the lint screen andinto the dryer during removal, inspect the exhausthood and remove any lint.

    Laundry detergent and fabric softener residue canbuild up on the lint screen, causing longer dryingtimes. The screen is likely blocked if lint falls offthe screen. In order to prevent this type of buildup, and help ensure proper operation of yourdryer, clean the lint screen with a nylon brushevery six months or, if necessary, morefrequently. The lint filter can also be washed asfollows:

    a) After rolling the lint off of the screen with yourfingers, wet both sides of the screen with hot orwarm water.

    b) Wet a nylon brush with hot water and liquiddetergent and scrub the lint screen with the brushto remove the buildup of detergent and t:abricsoftener.

    c) Repeat as necessary.d) After the residue has been removed, rinse screen

    with hot water.

    e) After drying the lint screen with a clean towel,firmly replace the lint screen in your dryer.
