CYCLE GUIDE — SENSOR DRY CYCLES

Use Sensor Dry Cycles for better fabric care and energy savings

When you are using the GentleBreeze™ Drying System with IntelliDry® Sensor, two metal strips located on the dryer determine the dryness of the load. When there is moisture left in the clothes, the dryer will continue to run. As clothes begin to dry, the amount of water left in the clothes decreases, and the timer advances through the remainder of the cycle. When the selected dryness level is reached, the dryer goes into a cool-down period of up to 15 minutes.

Sensor dry cycles may be used for most loads. Sensor dry cycles give the best drying results in the shortest time. Drying time varies according to the type of fabric, size of the load, and dryness setting.

After drying a load, check the dryness.

nIf the load is drier than you like, select a setting closer to Iron Dry the next time you dry a similar load.

nIf a load is not as dry as you like, complete drying using a Timed cycle. Select a setting closer to More Dry the next time you dry a similar load.

nLightweight items, such as lingerie, blouses, and knits that require a short drying time.
