Avoid drying heavy work clothes with lighter fabrics. This could cause overdrying of lighter fabrics, leading to increased shrinking or wrinkling.

If you dry sheets in a mixed load or large items in the Bulky Items cycle, rearrange the load when the signal sounds. This will aid in the drying process.

Cycle tips

Dry most loads using the preset cycle settings.

Refer to the Automatic or Manual Preset Cycle Settings chart (in the “Cycles” section) for a guide to drying various loads.

Drying temperature and Dryness Level are preset when you choose an Automatic Cycle. You can choose a different dryness level, depending on your load by pressing the DRYNESS LEVEL button to select MORE, NORMAL or LESS.

If you wish to adjust the cycle length of a Manual Cycle, you must press the DRY TIME up or down buttons. Adjust the temperature of a Manual Cycle by pressing TEMPERATURE until the desired temperature is selected.

NOTE: You cannot choose a Dryness Level with Manual Cycles.

StatusLights

You may follow the progress of your dryer with the drying Status indicator lights.

WRINKLE SHIELD™ Feature

Sensing

When a cycle is first turned on, the Sensing light glows until a wet item is detected.

In an Automatic Cycle, if a wet item has not been detected within 10 minutes, the Sensing light will turn off and the dryer will shut down.

In a Manual Cycle, if a wet item is not detected after

10 minutes, the Wet light turns on and the selected cycle continues.

Indicator lights

Other indicator lights on the control panel show Cycle, Temperature, Dryness Level, and cycle signal settings selected.

Cycle Control knob

Automatic Cycles

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 heavyweight mixed loads, cotton towels or jeans.

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 halfway through the dryer cycle. This will aid in the drying process.

Normal

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

Wet

The Wet light will turn on when a wet item has been detected in the dryer. The Wet light will remain on until:

The damp dry point is reached in an Automatic Cycle.

The dryer enters the cool down period in a Manual Cycle.

Damp

The Damp light indicates that the load has reached the damp dry level. To be alerted when your load is approximately 80% dry, you may use the Damp Dry Cycle Signal option. See “Damp Dry Cycle Signal” in “Additional Features” section.

NOTE: The Damp light is not used with manual cycles.

Cool Down

The Cool Down light glows during the cool down part of the cycle. Laundry is cooling down for ease in handling.

Done

The Done light illuminates when the drying cycle is finished. This indicator stays on during the WRINKLE SHIELDfeature.

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 Low heat to gently dry items such as washable knit fabrics.

Super Delicate

Use this cycle to get Extra-Low heat to gently dry items such as lingerie.

Damp Dry

Use this cycle to dry items to a damp level using Low heat. Damp dry items such as jeans (to avoid stiffness) or cotton clothing (to make ironing easier). The temperature setting on this cycle cannot be adjusted. Items will have different levels of dampness. At the end of this cycle, clothes will be damp. To be alerted when this cycle is complete, select the End of Cycle Signal.
