PROGRAMS

Your ASKO dryer has our state-of-the-art Sensidry system. This means it has a humidity sensor that ensures different fabrics always dry thoroughly. This sensor turns off the heat when the laundry has reached the appropriate dryness.

The Heavy, Normal, Delicate and Iron Dry programs are automatic (Sensidry) programs designed for certain types of loads, as defined in the table below. The sensor detects different levels of humidity with each program. It is important, therefore, to select the appropiate program for the type of load you are drying.

If you prefer, you can select Timed Dry, which does not

activate the humidity sensor. You should be careful when using this option not to overdry the fabrics. This program automatically uses the Low temperature setting, but you can change it to Normal by depressing the Temperature button.

When using Timed Dry, it’s best to use a shorter time; then if the load isn’t dry, you can set the timer for a few more minutes.

NOTE: Always follow the care label instruction.

Program

Definition

Heavy (P1)

For items that are extremely difficult to dry, such as jeans and thick towels.

Normal (P2)

Cotton w/out elastic and/or decorative trim.

Delicate (P3)

Cotton with elastic and/or decorative trim, linen (white and colorfast).

Timed Dry

Any fabric that can be machine dried. (See note below.)

Air Fluff

This setting does not heat. It simply circulates the air as the clothes tumble to shake out

 

the dust and refresh the clothes. (See note below.)

NOTE: When using Timed Dry and Air Fluff, you must set the number of minutes for the program to run. (See “Time” in the “Option Buttons” section below for details.)

OPTION BUTTONS

The option buttons allow you to select program time, normal or low temperature, anti-crease, delayed start, buzzer and quick cooling. Each of these options is defined in more detail in the following paragraphs.

TIME SET

If you set the program knob to Timed Dry or Air Fluff, you must select the length of drying time by pressing this button until the number of minutes you wish to dry the load displays on the LED. The time advances in 5- minute increments and you can select between 5 and 90 minutes. If you pass the time you wanted to select, continue to press the button until the correct time displays.

WRINKLE-FREE

The Wrinkle-free option prevents garments from wrinkling if you’re unable to remove them right away. You can select one, two, or three hours by pressing the Wrinkle-free button until the number of hours you prefer displays, as illustrated below:

1h

NOTE: “0” on the LED indicates the option is not active.

When you set a time, the drum will continue to rotate after the program is complete for three seconds every minute until the door is opened or the selected time (1– 3 hours) has passed. If the buzzer is on, it will sound each time the anti-crease program activates.

DELAY

This option lets you set the dryer to start at the most convenient time. This feature is also useful in areas where utility companies offer discount rates during off- peak hours. You can set delayed start from 1 hour to 24 hours, in one-hour increments.

To set a delayed start time, press the button until the number of hours you wish to delay starting the machine displays on the LED, as illustrated below:

1h

If you pass the time you wanted to select, continue to press the button until the correct time displays. If you decide not to delay starting the unit, continue to press the button until “0” displays.

Press Start and the unit will start after the number of hours you selected has passed.

To cancel Delay Start after you have pressed the Start button, press and hold the Stop button until the LED displays either the program number or minutes if you were running a Timed dry or Air fluff program.

You can then press Start and the unit will start right then.

TEMPERATURE

You have two temperature options: Normal and Low. The Normal setting should be used for heavier fabrics, such as denim, cotton, linen, etc. The Low setting should be used for lighter, more delicate fabrics, such as synthetics, permanent press, acrylics, etc.

The indicator light will stay lit when Low is selected. It will remain off when Normal is selected.
