When using Air Dry

 

Check that coverings are securely stitched.

Shake and fluff pillows by hand periodically during the cycle.

Dry item completely. Foam rubber pillows are slow to dry.

NOTE: Air Dry is not available with Auto Cycles.

Options

You can customize your cycles by selecting options.

WRINKLE PREVENT

WRINKLE PREVENT helps smooth out wrinkles that form when you cannot unload the dryer promptly at the end of a cycle. During this option, the dryer periodically starts and stops, tumbling the load for 90 minutes.

Press WRINKLE PREVENT to get up to 90 minutes of heat- free, periodic tumbling at the end of a cycle.

Stop WRINKLE PREVENT at any time by pressing WRINKLE PREVENT or opening the dryer door.

WRINKLE PREVENT is preset to OFF. The Auto Dry cycles will retain the WRINKLE PREVENT setting. For example, if you select WRINKLE PREVENT in the Normal cycle, WRINKLE PREVENT will be on the next time you select the Normal cycle.

NOTE: WRINKLE PREVENT must be selected with a cycle in order to work. If you do not select WRINKLE PREVENT, the dryer stops after cool down.

Cycle Signal

The Cycle Signal produces an audible sound when the drying cycle is finished. Promptly removing clothes at the end of the cycle reduces wrinkling.

Press CYCLE SIGNAL to turn the signal off.

NOTE: When WRINKLE PREVENT is selected and the Cycle Signal is on, a tone sounds every 5 minutes until the clothes are removed, or WRINKLE PREVENT ends.

Changing Cycles, Options, and Modifiers

You can change Auto Cycles, Timed Cycles, Modifiers, and Options anytime before pressing Start.

Three short tones sound if an unavailable combination is selected. The last selection will not be accepted.

Changing Cycles after pressing Start

1.Press STOP twice. This ends the current cycle.

2.Select the desired cycle and options.

3.Press and hold START. The dryer starts at the beginning of the new cycle.

NOTE: If you do not press Start within 5 minutes of selecting the cycle, the dryer automatically shuts off.

Changing Modifiers and Options after pressing Start

You can change a Modifier or Option anytime before the selected Modifier or Option begins.

1.Press STOP once.

2.Select the new Modifier and/or Option.

3.Press and hold START to continue the cycle.

NOTE: If you happen to press Stop twice, the program clears and your dryer shuts down. Restart the selection process.

Drying Rack Options

The drying rack is useful for drying items you would not necessarily want to tumble dry or that you would normally line dry (for example, sweaters).

If your model does not have a drying rack, you may be able to purchase one for your model. For information on ordering Drying Rack (Part Number W10121663), please refer to the front page of the manual or contact the dealer from whom you purchased your dryer.

The drying rack is recommended for use with the Air Dry cycle or with Timed Dry cycles. The drying rack cannot be used with Auto Cycles.
