Sensor Cycles
Sensor Cycles allow you to match the cycle to the load you are drying. See the following
Sensor Preset Cycle Settings chart. Each cycle dries certain fabrics at the recommended
temperature. A sensor detects the moisture in the load and automatically adjusts the drying
time for optimal drying. An alternate temperature is se[ectab[e for all cycles with the
exception of the Delicate by pressing the TEMP I.EVEI. button.
Heavy Duty
Use this cycle to get regular heat for heavyweight mixed loads, cottons, and jeans.
Normal
Use this cycle to get medium heat for drying sturdy fabrics such as work clothes and sheets.
Wrinkle Control
Use this cycle to get low heat for drying no-iron fabrics, such as sport shirts, casual business
clothes, and permanent press blends.
Delicate
Use this cycle to get extra-low heat to gently dry iterns such as lingerie, blouses, or washable
knit fabrics.
