Cycle control knob

AutomaticCycles

Automatic Cycles allow you to match the cycle to the load you are drying. See the following “Automatic Preset Cycle Settings” chart. Each cycle dries certain fabrics at the recommended temperature. A sensor detects the moisture in the load and automatically adjusts the drying time for optimal drying.

Heavy Duty

Use this cycle to get High heat for heavy fabrics such as cotton towels or bedspreads.

Normal

Use this cycle to get Medium heat for drying sturdy fabrics such as work clothes.

Bulky Items

Use this cycle to get medium heat for drying large items that require very long drying times, such as jackets, comforters and pillows. Rearrange the load when the Damp & Dry signal sounds. This will aid in the drying process.

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

Use this cycle to get Extra Low heat to gently dry items such as lingerie or washable knit fabrics.

ManualCycles

Use Manual Cycles to select a specific amount of drying time and a drying temperature. When a Manual Cycle is selected, the ESTIMATED TIME REMAINING display shows the actual time remaining in your cycle. You can change the actual time in the cycle by pressing MORE TIME or LESS TIME.

Timed Dry

Use this cycle to complete drying if items are still damp after an Automatic Cycle. Timed Dry is also useful for drying heavyweight and bulky items, such as bedspreads and work clothes.

Lightweight garments, such as exercise wear, can be dried using Timed Dry on a Low temperature setting.

Touch Up

Use this setting to remove wrinkles from items, such as clothes packed in a suitcase or items wrinkled from being left in the dryer too long.

Quick Dry

Use this cycle for drying small loads or loads that need a short drying time.
