Cycle Selector (Timer) Control

Automatic Dry/Sensor Dry

The Automatic dry cycle takes the guesswork out of drying time and enhances fabric care. The Automatic Dry cycle may be used for most loads.

The Cycle Selector (Timer) control may be set to ENERGY PREFERRED, which is good for most fabrics. At the end of the cycle, you may check the dryness of the load.

■■ If the load is drier than you like, select a setting closer to Less Dry the next time you dry a similar load.

■■ If the load is not as dry as you want, select a Timed cycle to complete drying and the next time you dry a similar load, choose a setting closer to Very Dry.

Drying time with an automatic cycle varies according to the type of fabric, size of load, and temperature setting. On some models, the temperature is included in the cycle selections.

WRINKLE PREVENT Setting (on some models)

The WRINKLE PREVENT features will run after your drying cycle is complete. It periodically starts and stops the dryer, tumbling the load without heat to help avoid wrinkling.

On some models, WRINKLE PREVENT automatically starts at the end of the cycle. Opening the door will stop this feature. On other models, you can set the WRINKLE PREVENT selector knob to ON or choose the amount of time the feature runs.

NOTE: A signal will sound periodically when the WRINKLE PREVENT setting is selected, but only if the End of Cycle signal is also selected.

Timed Dry

On some models, temperature is included in the cycle selections. On models with a selectable temperature knob, you may choose a setting based on the fabrics in your load. Drying time and temperature will depend on your dryer model.

Temperature Control

(on some models)

You may select a drying temperature based on the fabrics in your load. If you are unsure of the temperature to select for a load, select the lower setting rather than the higher setting.

Temperature Tips

If your dryer has multiple heat settings:

■■ A High heat setting may be used for drying heavyweight items such as towels and work clothes.

■■ A Low to Medium heat setting may be used for drying medium-weight items such as sheets, blouses, dresses, underwear, permanent press fabrics, and some knits.

■■ A Low heat setting may be used for drying lightweight items such as lingerie.

■■ You may use a no heat (air) setting for rubber, plastic, or heat-sensitive fabrics.

■■ Line dry bonded or laminated fabrics.

NOTE: If you have questions about drying temperatures for various loads, refer to the care label directions.
