Changing the Preset Dryness Level Settings

If all your loads on all Auto Dry cycles are consistently not as dry as you would like, you may change the preset Dryness Level settings to increase the dryness. This change will affect all of your Auto Dry cycles.

Your Dryness Level settings can be adjusted to adapt to different installations, environmental conditions or personal preference. There are 3 drying settings: 1 (factory preset dryness level),

2 (slightly dryer clothes, approximately 15% more drying time) and 3 (much dryer clothes, approximately 30% more drying time).

1.The Dryness Level settings cannot be changed while the dryer is running.

2.Press and hold the Dryness Level button for 5 seconds. The dryer will beep, and “CF” will be displayed for 1 second followed by the current drying setting.

3.To select a new drying setting, press the Dryness Level key again until the desired drying setting is shown.

NOTE: While cycling through the settings, the current setting will not flash, but the other settings will flash.

4.Press START to save the drying setting.

5.The drying setting you selected will become your new preset drying setting for all Auto Dry cycles.
