Select SENSOR CYCLES DRYNESS to adjust how dry you want the load to be. As the cycle runs, the control senses the dryness of the load and adjusts the time automatically for the selected Sensor Cycles Dryness.
NOTE: Most loads may be dried using Normal. Normal is the energy preferred dryness level and will use the least energy.
The default dryness setting is Normal when an Sensor Cycle is selected. You can select a different dryness level, depending on your load, by pressing SENSOR CYCLES DRYNESS and choosing More Dry, Normal, or Less Dry. Selecting More Dry, Normal, or Less Dry automatically adjusts the dryness level at which the dryer will shut off. Once a dryness level is set, it cannot be changed without stopping the cycle.
The Sensor Cycles Dryness can be changed only with Sensor Cycles.
Press the WRINKLE PREVENT feature button if this option is desired.
Press the SIGNAL ON/OFF button to set the end of cycle signal.
Press and hold START/PAUSE button until dryer starts (about 1 second).
The Wrinkle Prevent and Cycle Signal features can be adjusted during a Sensor Cycle. If you want to select another Sensor Cycle or Sensor Cycle Dryness, press START/PAUSE once to stop the dryer, make the desired changes, then press START/PAUSE to resume drying.
NOTE: Time and Temperature are not adjustable for Sensor Cycles. Pressing the TIME ADJUST or TIMED CYCLES TEMP buttons will cause a triple beep, indicating that the time cannot be changed.
How Sensor Cycles Work
This feature improves drying with Auto Moisture Sensing Plus, which advances the cycle as moisture is extracted from clothing. A thermistor (electronic temperature sensor) and moisture sensing strips in the dryer drum help measure the amount of moisture in the clothes as they tumble. An electronic control determines the load type to help save time, avoid overdrying, and increase the accuracy of the end dryness level. After the first 5 minutes of a Sensor cycle, the estimated time display will adjust based on the approximate load size, cycle, dryness level selected and amount of moisture left in the clothes. When the clothes have reached approximately 80% of the dryness level selected, the estimated time display will adjust again, showing the final drying time. Auto Moisture Sensing Plus takes the guesswork out of drying time and enhances fabric care.
To use a Timed Cycle
NOTE: A light next to each feature will glow yellow when the feature is selected. The light will not glow when the selection is unavailable with the cycle or option combinations selected.
Press POWER/CANCEL.
Rotate the dial to select a Timed Cycle.
Press the TIME ADJUST up or down buttons until the desired drying time is displayed. Press TIME ADJUST, and the time will change by
TIME ADJUST, and the time will change by
The Time Adjust feature can be used only with Timed Cycles.
Press TIMED CYCLES TEMP until the desired temperature glows yellow.
Temperature settings can be changed only with Timed Cycles.
Press the WRINKLE PREVENT feature button if this option is desired.
Press the SIGNAL ON/OFF button to set the end of cycle signal.
Press and hold START/PAUSE button until dryer starts (about 1 second).
NOTE: Sensor Cycles Dryness is not adjustable for Timed Cycles. Pressing the SENSOR CYCLE DRYNESS button will cause the triple beep indicating that this option is not selectable.
While a Timed Cycle is running, you can change the settings for Time, Temperature, the WRINKLE PREVENT feature and the cycle signals. Press the START/PAUSE button once to stop the dryer, allowing you to select another cycle.
