Available Drying Cycles
NOTE: Use the automatic cycles for drying items that can be dried with heat. These cycles automatically dry loads to the dryness level selected.
MAX DRY will dry very small loads and some heavy items, such as blue jeans, but will overdry lightweight items, such as sheets and shirts. Overdrying can cause wrinkling, shrinking, excessive lint conditions, and will use more energy than necessary.
MORE DRY will dry medium sized loads.
LESS DRY, which uses the least energy, will dry large loads and lightweight items, such as sheets and shirts, but might leave other items, such as denim and heavy bath towels, more damp.
To increase energy savings and to make sure loads are dried without overdrying, set your loads on LESS DRY. If items are damp at the end of a cycle, the timer knob needs to be set closer to the MORE DRY setting the next time these loads are dried. If items are overdry at the end of a cycle, the timer knob should be set closer to COOL DOWN or COOL TUMBLE when these loads are dried again. Remember the settings that work best to get ideal drying results.
The COOL DOWN and COOL TUMBLE period at the end of each cycle provides items a chance to tumble with no heat and cool down to room temperature. This prevents wrinkles from setting if items cannot be cared for immediately.
NOTE: The timer knob will not advance as quickly in the AUTOMATIC cycles as it does in the TIME DRY cycle. The time it takes for the timer to advance depends on the type and size of the load being dried.
The ENERGY SAVER settings, marked with an asterisk (∗), show which settings will use the least energy and will leave items damp for easier ironing.
Automatic Regular/Delicate Cycle
Use for sturdy items like play or work clothes and also for delicate items. The type of heat is determined by choosing the proper Fabric Selector option. There are three settings in the AUTOMATIC REGULAR/DELICATE cycle — MAX DRY, MORE DRY, and LESS DRY.
Time Dry Cycle
This cycle will operate dryer for up to 75 minutes. Cottons and heavyweight items dry best between 50 and 75 minutes, and lightweight items dry best between 20 and 40 minutes.
Automatic Wrinkle Out Cycle (available on select models only)
Use this for items that are slightly wrinkled after sitting in a dryer or laundry basket overnight. The cycle has a short heat setting followed by a five minute COOL DOWN.
Automatic Permanent Press/Knits Cycle
Use for permanent press items and synthetics. The type of heat is determined by selecting the proper Fabric Selector option. There are two settings in the AUTOMATIC PERMANENT PRESS/KNITS cycle
— MORE DRY and LESS DRY.
