Your dryer has a Cycle Control Knob and a Temperature Selector:

2.Stop when the indicator on the knob’s outer ring points to the cycle and time you want.

3.Set the Temperature Selector to the desired temperature setting.

Changing a selection:

1.Turn the Cycle Control Knob to a new setting.

2.Move the Temperature Selector to the new desired temperature.

3.Push the Start Button, if necessary.

Using the Damp Dry cycle

(on some models)

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

1.Set the Cycle Control Knob on DAMP DRY.

2.Set the Temperature Selector to a high setting.

3.Push the Start Button.

The last few minutes of this cycle are without heat to help make the load easier to handle.
