CYCLE GUIDE — SENSOR DRY CYCLES
Not all cycles and settings are available on all models. Settings and options shown in bold are default settings for that cycle.
SENSOR DRY CYCLE - Senses moisture in the load or air temperature and shuts off when the load reaches the selected dryness level. Gives the best drying in the shortest time. Drying time varies based on fabric type, load size, and dryness setting.
Use the NORMAL dryness level to provide optimal energy savings.
Depending on model, temperature may be selected on cycle knob or be a separate control.
