Timed Dry Cycles

Use Timed Dry Cycles to select a specific amount of drying time and a drying temperature. When a Timed Dry Cycle is selected, the Estimated Time Remaining display shows the actual time remaining in your cycle. You can change the actual time in the cycle by pressing the Timed Dry Cycle Adjust Up or Down arrow buttons. See “Changing Cycles, Options and Modifiers.”

Timed Dry

Use this cycle to complete drying if items are still damp after an Sensor Dry Cycle. Timed Dry is also useful for drying heavyweight and bulky items such as bedspreads and work clothes.

Rapid Dry

Use this cycle for drying small loads or loads that need a short drying time.

Freshen Up

Use this cycle to help smooth out wrinkles from items such as clothes packed in a suitcase or items wrinkled from being left in the dryer too long.
