Cycle End Signal

The Cycle End Signal produces an audible sound when the drying cycle is finished. Promptly removing clothes at the end of the cycle reduces wrinkling.

Press and release the CYCLE END SIGNAL to adjust the sound level or turn off the signal.

NOTE: When the Extra Care feature is selected and the Cycle End Signal is on, an audible sound will emit every 5 minutes until the clothes are removed, or the Extra Care feature is finished.
