End of cycle signal

The dryer sounds a signal to let you know when the cycle is finished. The signal is not adjustable and cannot be turned off.

The signal is helpful when you are drying permanent press, synthetics, and other items that should be taken out as soon as the dryer stops.

Selecting the right cycle and setting

The following pages describe the cycles on your dryer. Refer to the chart on page 9 for help in selecting drying cycles.

Drying guidelines

lAlways follow care label directions when they are available.

lUse the Air cycle to dry rubber, plastic, delicate, and heat-sensitive fabrics (see

page 8).

lThe last few minutes of all cycles are without heat to make the load easier to handle.

l TO help reduce wrinkling, remove the load from the dryer as soon as tumbling stops. This is especially important for permanent press, knits, and synthetic fabrics.

Cycle descriptions

Automatic Permanent Press/ Regular Cycle(s)

Dry most loads using the Energy Preferred Automatic Setting (*). Your Automatic cycle(s) shuts off when the se- lected dryness is reached. The Cycle Control Knob will not move until the load is almost dry. After the cool-down, the Knob automatically turns to an OFF area and tumbling stops.

lIf the load is drier than you like, select a setting closer to LESS DRY the next time you dry a similar load.

lIf the load is not as dry as you like, com- plete drying using a Timed cycle. Select a setting closer to MORE DRY the next time you dry a similar load.
