1.Unplug dryer or disconnect power.

Changing the Sensor Cycle Settings to Increase Drying Time

If all your loads on all Sensor cycles are consistently not as dry as you would like, you may change the default settings to increase the default dryness level.

Your sensor drying settings can be adjusted to adapt to different installations, environmental conditions, or personal preference. This change is retained and will affect all of your Sensor cycles, not just the current cycle/load. There are 3 drying settings, which are displayed using the “Status” lights (Wet, Damp, Cool Down)

1Factory preset dryness level.

2Slightly drier clothes, 15% more drying time.

3Much drier clothes, 30% more drying time.

To change the drying settings:

NOTE: The settings cannot be changed while the dryer is running or paused. The dryer must be in standby mode (the power button is off) to adjust the default settings.

1.Before starting a cycle, press and hold the TEMP LEVEL button for 6 seconds.

2.Press the TEMP LEVEL button to select the dryness level shown in the LED display: Wet light on = level 1, Wet and Damp lights on = level 2, and Wet, Damp, and Cool Down lights on = level 3.

3.Press START/PAUSE to save the new dryness level setting.
