AUTO CYCLES

Normal

Casual

Use this cycle to get Low heat for drying no-iron fabrics such as sport shirts, casual business clothes and permanent press blends.

Delicate

Damp Dry

Use this cycle to dry items to a damp level using Low heat, or to dry items that do not require an entire drying cycle.
