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.

Avoid drying heavy work clothes with lighter fabrics. This could cause overdrying of lighter fabrics, leading to increased shrinking or wrinkling.

If you dry sheets in a mixed load or large items, rearrange the load when the signal sounds. This will aid in the drying process.

Cycle tips

•Dry most loads using the preset cycle settings.

•Refer to the Sensor or Timed Preset Cycle Settings chart (in the "Cycles" section) for a guide to drying various loads.

•Drying temperature and Sensor Cycles Dryness are preset when you choose a Sensor Cycle. You can choose a different dryness level, depending on your load by pressing the SENSOR CYCI.ES DRYNESS button to select More Dry, Normal, or I.ess Dry.

•If you wish to adjust the cycle length of a Timed Cycle, you must press the TIME ADJUST up or down buttons. Adjust the temperature of a Timed Cycle by pressing TIMED CYCI.ES TEMP until the desired temperature is selected.

NOTE: You cannot choose a Sensor Cycles Dryness with Timed, Steam, or Sanitize

Cycles.
