Washer/Dryer Communication

Washer/Dryer communication allows your washer to send cycle information to your dryer to create a dry cycle that matches your wash load.

After the wash cycle is complete, communication begins once either the washer or dryer Touch Screen is activated or washer lid is up.

Once the information is sent, your dryer will create the optimal dry cycle for your load.

If you have sorted your wash load by color or garment and therefore selected color or garment on the washer Touch Screen, upon transferring the information to the dryer, the dryer will ask you to select the fabric type. This is normal, and is done to properly optimize drying time for the just-washed load. After selecting the fabric type, the dryer display screen will be shown. After reviewing, press START.

If the dryer display screen is off and you want to use the “Washer Recommended Cycle” to dry your clothes, touch the display screen on the dryer to activate. You will have a “Washer Recommended Cycle” button appear on your dryer Home Screen. Push it for retrieving the recommended dryer cycle for the just-washed load.

To turn the Washer/Dryer Communication feature on or off:

1From the Home Screen, press the HELP button.
