Cycle control knob

If your dryer has a Cycle Control Knob with

3 temperature settings (air, low, high), refer to the chart below and the chart on page 9 for cycle information.

Loads tumble without heat during the last few minutes of all heated cycles. This makes a load easier to handle and helps keep wrinkles from setting in.

Uslng your automatic (hlgh heat) cycle Use your automatic (high heat) cycle to dry medium to heavyweight cotton and linen items and some permanent press.

Start Ltton

Using your automatic (low heat) cycle Use your automatic (low heat) cycle to dry knits, delicates and some synthetic items.

NOTE: To help reduce wrinkling, remove the load from the dryer as soon as tumbling stops. This is important for permanent press, knits and synthetic fabrics. Do not overdry. Overdrying can cause shrinkage, static cling, and damage some fabrics.
