Additional Features

Extra Care

Extra Care helps keep wrinkles from forming when you cannot unload the dryer promptly at the end of a cycle. During this option, the dryer stops tumbling and then tumbles again for a brief period. A signal will sound periodically when the Extra Care feature is on, if the Cycle End Tone option is selected.

Press Extra Care to get up to 2.5 hours of heat-free, periodic tumbling at the end of a cycle.

Stop Extra Care at any time by pressing Extra Care or opening the dryer door.

For the Normal/Casual Automatic Cycle, Extra Care is preset to on. The other Automatic Cycles will retain the Extra Care setting. For example, if you select Extra Care in the Delicate cycle, Extra Care will be on the next time you select the Delicate cycle.

NOTE: If you do not select Extra Care, the dryer stops after cool down.

Cycle End Tone

If the Cycle End Tone option is selected, a signal will sound when a cycle is complete. If the Extra Care feature is selected, the signal sounds every few minutes. The signal stops when you open the door.

Press the CYCLE END TONE key to select a Soft or Loud signal or to turn the signal off.

Sound System

The WHISPER QUIETsound insulation system helps to maintain a quiet home environment during dryer operation.

NOTE: If you do not load clothes properly, the quiet operation of your dryer could be affected.
