Select the correct cycle and temperature for your load.
Your dryer tumbles the load without heat during the last few minutes of all cycles to make the load easier to handle.
Drying tips
•Follow care label directions when they are available.
•If desired, add a fabric softener sheet. Follow package instructions.
•Remove the load from the dryer as soon as tumbling stops to reduce wrinkling. This is especially important for permanent press, knits, and synthetic fabrics.
Cycle and temperature tips
•Dry most loads using Normal Dry (*).
•Use a no heat (air) setting for rubber, plastic, or
•Line dry bonded or laminated fabrics.
NOTE: If you have questions about drying temperatures for various loads, refer to the care label directions.

Cycle Control knob
Auto Dry I
Auto Dry I may be used for most loads. This automatic cycle gives the best drying results in the shortest time. Drying time varies according to the type of fabric, size of the load, and dryness setting.
The Cycle Control knob may be set to NORMAL DRY (*), 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, you may select a setting closer to Less Dry the next time you dry a similar load.
•If a load is not as dry as you like, you may complete drying using a Timed cycle. You may select a setting closer to More Dry the next time you dry a similar load.
Dryness is determined by thermostats that react to the amount of moisture in the air exhausted from the dryer. Moist air indicates that clothes are still damp. Dry air indicates that moisture has been removed.
Timed Dry
Use this cycle to get up to 70 minutes of heated drying time or to complete drying if items are still damp after the automatic cycle. Approximately 10 minutes before the end of the automatic cycle, clothes are tumbled without heat to help reduce wrinkles and make clothes easier to handle.
Timed Dry is also useful for:
•Heavyweight items and work clothes that require a long drying time.
•Lightweight items, such as lingerie, blouses and knits that require a short drying time.
Touch Up
This cycle may be used to smooth synthetic and permanent
press clothes that are clean but wrinkled from being crowded in a closet or suitcase. This setting provides approximately
15 minutes of heated tumbling followed by a cool down period of up to 10 minutes. Remove clothes immediately when tumbling stops.
Air Dry
Use this cycle to get up to 30 minutes of drying time in room temperature air. This setting may be used for items such as plastics, rubber and
