SECTION III
PROGRAM SELECTIONS
A. PREPROGRAMMED CYCLES
“A-F” CYCLES
The Phase 7 non-coin microprocessor controller (computer) can store in its memory six (6) preprogrammed cycles (keys “A-F” on the keyboard [touch pad]). This allows the user to have the six (6) most commonly used cycles readily available, requiring only the push of a single keyboard (touch pad) entry to start the dryer.
“0-40” CYCLES
The Phase 7 non-coin microprocessor controller (computer) can store 41 preprogrammed cycles in its numerical memory. (Use keys “0-9” on the keyboard [touch pad]). This allows the user to have up to 41 customized programmed cycles that may not be as commonly used as the six (6) “A-F”. These are not one-touch entries to start the dryer like “A-F”. They are selected by entering the number, which represents the cycle desired, and by pressing the “START/ENTER” 
key to start the cycle.
Both types of preprogrammed cycles can be set in either the Automatic Drying Mode (Patent 4,827,627), in which the drying cycle will end when the selected dryness level has been reached, the drying time out time has expired, or in the Manual Timed Drying Mode, in which the dryer will operate for the specific drying time programmed. These cycles can be programmed in any combination.
Once the heating cycle is completed, the Phase 7 non-coin microprocessor controller (computer) then goes into the Cool Down Cycle in which the articles are tumbled at room temperature or a controlled cool down in which the dryer goes into a slow Cool Down Mode for 10 minutes sloping the temperature 10° F (5.5° C) every minute.
When the cooling cycle is completed, the dryer will go into the Wrinkle Guard Cycle. For the first 15 minutes of “WRINKLE GUARD”, the Phase 7 non-coin microprocessor controller (computer) will remain idle with the display reading “CYCLE DONE”. After the 15 minutes have elapsed, the Phase 7 non-coin microprocessor controller (computer) will beep three (3) times and will activate the basket (tumbler) for 15-seconds without heat. At this point, the display will read “WRINKLE GUARD”. Once the 15-seconds are over, the Phase 7 non-coin microprocessor controller (computer) will display “CYCLE DONE” and will remain idle for 5 minutes, at which point the Phase 7 non-coin microprocessor controller (computer) will reactivate the basket (tumbler) for 15-seconds while displaying “Wrinkle Guard”. The Phase 7 non-coin microprocessor controller (computer) will continue with the process of 15-seconds “ON”, 5 minutes “OFF”, until either the doors are opened, the “STOP/CLEAR” 
key is pressed, or 99 minutes have elapsed, whichever comes first. Once the Wrinkle Guard routine has ended, the display will read “CYCLE DONE”. At this point, the dryer is locked out from drying again until the doors are opened. This will ensure that if a cycle has been completed, the operator will attend to it before starting another heat cycle.
NOTE: To enter Program Mode, press “STOP/CLEAR” 
and “UPARROW”
