Stop N Dry. By simply turning this knob, either with the dryer on or off, the No Tumble feature takes effect. A useful feature for the tennis shoes! |

Wow, I didn't realize that the Norge had a delay start option back in the day!! If this is a DG-500, it retailed for $359.95. The washer AWD-502 sold for $399.95. Not a big difference in prices between the washer and dryer, much like today. SteveD |

Jimmy, I could see dots on the dial-a-fabric indicating high or low heat, but never saw a fabric type that indicated a medium heat, or did I miss something? Looks like the link filter door at the bottom of the cabinet is missing? The drum light on our '64 Norge Wrinkle-Out dryer was in thes ame location.

Tomturbomatic, "interesting" about the small to large flame control on the older TimeLines. We had that dryer until I was 10.75 years old, but I odn't recall seeing that under the top lid that gave access to the flame lighting. Maybe it was better I dind't know about it, lol. I have to admit, I always wondered why there wasn't a temperature control on ours, but I thinnk ours was a BOL cuz it didn't have a light in it the panel. Our '64 Norge dryer, the top'n'dry feature control was on the control panel, it was a sliding lever that mirrored the variable water level position on the washer.

Sorry, I meant to say continuously variable heat input as opposed to the click position dials with settings such as Air Fluff, Low & Super Fast. Early bol Timelines must have had only had one heat input level. |

I love the electric clock. ... Just think of it... with a clock on the unit you can time the drying cycle TO THE SECOND! While the darling hubby is asleep, you can set the dryer to dry clothes while you run out for a quick round of Canasta with the girls. If your hubby is a cheatin' man, you can set the dryer to dry a load of gasoline-soaked laundry while he slumbers away. |

My last post makes no sense as the clock is on the washer. I've got nothing funny to say now. Perhaps General-Time or Telechron had a big sale on clock mechs and the Norge engineers said "Hell, let's put a clock on that there washer!" Did clock-happy Norge put clocks on other items of that period-like water-heaters or dehumidifiers? Does the washer have a "snooze-bar"? (I can't unload the washer right now.. give me ten more minutes) |

I guess you got the washer a few years back, before i joined. Did you take fantastic fotos also, of the washer then ; and if so, could you tell me where to find them. I'd so love to know what it says on the clock, and to see the agitator. Never seen control panels so high on a washer/dryer. Lit up at night, it looks like an older huge stove, so way up and all clocked. Beautiful ! |
