DRYER CYCLE GUIDE — AUTOMATIC DRY CYCLES

Not all cycles and settings are available on all models.

AUTOMATIC DRY – Automatic cycles give the best drying in the shortest time. They sense moisture in the load or air temperature and shut off when the load reaches the selected dryness level. Drying time varies based on fabric type, load size, and dryness setting.

Select a drying temperature based on the fabrics in your load. If you are unsure of the temperature to select for a load, select the lower setting rather than the higher setting.
