USING YOUR DRYER

CYCLE DESCRIPTIONS (CONT.)

Timed cycle(s)

Use a Timed drying cycle to complete drying if some items are damp

after the Automatic

cycle. A Timed drying

cycle is also useful for:

Heavyweight and bulky items, such as

bed spreads and work clothes, and large loads

that require a long

drying time. Set your dryer to a heat setting

that matches the care label directions.

Lightweight items, such as lingerie, blouses, and knits that require a short drying time. Set your dryer for a low or extra low heat.

Drying time and temperature will depend on your dryer model.

Fluff Air cycle

(on some models)

Use the unheated Fluff Air cycle for items that require drying without

heat. For examples of

items that require air drying, see the “Fluff Air cycle” later in this section.

NOTE: If your model

does not have the

Fluff Air cycle, use the

Timed Drying cycle and the “Air” Temp-

erature setting, or line dry heat-sensitive items.

Heavy Dry cycle

(on some models)

Use the Heavy Dry cycle to dry large items or items that are thicker

or heavier than a regu-

lar load (such as heavy

cotton bath towels or robes.) Set your Cycle Control knob to Heavy

Dry and your Tempera-

ture selector to High heat.

Damp Dry feature

(on some models)

Use the Damp Dry feature in the Timed cycle to dry items to damp level or to dry items that do not

require an entire drying

cycle. Two examples

are heavy cottons, such

as jeans, which you do

not want to become

stiff, or cotton clothes which are easier to

press when damp. Set the Temperature selector to High heat.

Towels feature

(on some models)

When you have large loads of towels to dry, you

may want to use the

Towels feature in the

Automatic cycle. The

Towels setting allows for more drying time and

automatically shuts off

the dryer when the se-

lected dryness is

reached. You can also

use the Towels feature for extra heavy items

such as mattress pads and quilts. Set your dryer to a heat setting that matches the care label direc- tions.

Delicates feature

(on some models)

When you have small loads or loads of lightweight items to dry, you may want to use the

Delicates feature in the

Automatic cycle. The

Delicates setting allows

less drying time and

automatically shuts off the dryer when the

selected dryness is reached. Set the Temperature selector to Ex-Low heat.
