When the cycle is complete, an audible chime will sound. The chime will sound intermittently during Wrinkle Prevent. On select models, the volume of the chime can be adjusted. To turn the Chime off, turn the Chime selector knob to Off.

Wrinkle Prevent

Wrinkle Prevent provides approximately 95 minutes of intermittent tumbling in unheated air at the end of the cycle to reduce wrinkling. Set the Wrinkle Prevent switch On to activate this feature (select models). Some models automatically provide 30 minutes of Wrinkle Prevent at the end of the Wrinkle Control cycle only.

STEP 3

Select Dryness Setting

To select the dryness level, turn the Dryness Settings knob to the desired setting.

Most loads will use the Normal dry setting. Loads of larger or bulkier size may require the More dry setting to completely dry the load.

The Less dry setting is best suited for lightweight fabrics or for leaving some moisture in the load at the end of the cycle. Damp dry is designed to partially dry items. Use for items that lay flat or hang to dry.

STEP 4

Select Cycle

To select a cycle, rotate the cycle selector dial to the desired cycle. The indicator light by the cycle name will illuminate.

The dryer cycles are Sensor Dry cycles. Sensor Dry automatically senses the moisture in the load and shuts the dryer off when the selected dryness level (Damp dry to More dry) is reached.
