1.Clean lint screen before each load. See “Cleaning the Lint Screen.”
2.Place laundry into dryer and shut door.
3.Press POWER.
4.Select an Auto or Timed Cycle. The preset settings for Auto or Timed Cycles will illuminate. The estimated (auto cycle) or actual (timed) cycle time (in minutes) will show in the display.
NOTE: A default time is displayed when an auto cycle is selected. During the first few minutes of the drying process, the cycle time may automatically vary from the default time based on the size and fabric type of the load. Toward the end of the drying process, the estimated time display will adjust again, showing the final drying time.
To use an Auto Cycle
■Select an Auto Cycle. Auto cycles are preset to Normal.
■Select DRYNESS LEVEL to adjust how dry you want the load. As the cycle runs, the control senses the dryness of the load and adjusts the time automatically for the selected dryness level.
To make changes to the Dryness Level and/or Options during an Auto Cycle:
■Press STOP once.
■Adjust Dryness Level and/or Options.
NOTE: Dryness Level selections can be made only while using Auto Cycles. Selecting More, Normal, or Less automatically adjusts the sensed time needed.
Auto Dry cycles take the guesswork out of drying time and enhances fabric care. The amount of time that is displayed is the estimated time remaining in the cycle.
