Touchup
Use this setting to help smooth out wrinkles from such items as clothes packed in a suitcase or items wrinkled from being left in the dryer too long.
Rapid Dry
Use this cycle for drying small loads or loads that need a short drying time.

Additional Features
Extra Care Feature
When you are unable to remove a load of clothes from the dryer as soon as it stops, wrinkles can form. The Extra Care feature periodically tumbles, rearranges and fluffs the load to help reduce wrinkling.
■Press the Extra Care feature to get up to 120 minutes of heat- free, periodic tumbling at the end of a cycle.
■Stop at any time by pressing the Extra Care feature or opening the dryer door.
■For the Casual Cycle, the Extra Care feature is preset to “On.” The other Automatic Cycles will retain the Extra Care feature setting. (For example, if you select the Extra Care feature in the Normal cycle, the Extra Care feature will be on the next time you select the Normal cycle.)
NOTE: If you do not select the Extra Care feature, the dryer stops after the cool down period.

Temperature settings are used with the Manual Cycles. Press TEMP until the desired temperature setting glows. Temperature settings cannot be used with the Automatic Cycles.

The Cycle End Signal produces an audible sound when the drying cycle is finished. Promptly removing clothes at the end of the cycle reduces wrinkling.
Press and release the CYCLE END SIGNAL to adjust the sound level or turn off the signal.
