Cycle descriptions

Automatic Cycle(s)

Dry most loads using the Energy Preferred Automatic Setting (*). Your

	Automatic cycle(s) shuts
	off when the selected
Off	dryness is reached. The
Less	Cycle Control Knob will
Dry	not move until the load
Very	is almost dry. After the
Dry
	cool-down, the Knob auto-
	matically turns to an Off
	area and tumbling stops.

•If the load is drier than you like, select a setting closer to Less Dry the next time you dry a similar load.

•If the load is not as dry as you like, com- plete drying using a Timed cycle. Select a setting closer to Very Dry the next time you dry a similar load.

Some models offer high heat and low heat Automatic cycles (see page 10).

NOTES:

•Some Automatic cycles use an electronic DRY-MISER* control that senses the amount of moisture in the load.

•Other Automatic cycles use an automatic DRY-MISER control that senses the exhaust temperature and determines the dryness of the load.

Timed Cycle(s)

Use a Timed cycle to complete drying if

Fluff Air Cycle (on some models)

The Fluff Air cycle has no heat. Use this un-

	heated cycle to fluff or air
	dry bedding, plastic table-
	cloths, foam pillows,
	sneakers, etc. See page
	11 for more information
Off	about the Fluff Air cycle.

Damp Dry Cycle (on some models)

Use Damp Dry to dry items to damp level or to dry items that do not

require an entire drying cycle. Two examples

	some items are damp
60	after Automatic drying.
50	Timed drying is also
40
30	useful for:
20	• Delicate items and
	small loads that need
Off	a short drying time.
	• Bulky items and large
	loads that require a long
	drying time.

Some models offer high heat and low heat Timed cycles (see page 10).
