Cycle descriptions
Automatic Cycle(s)
Dry most loads using the Energy
Preferred Automatic Setting (*/. Your
Automatic cycle(s) shuts
off when the selected
dryness is reached. The
Cycle Control Knob will
not move until the load
is almost dry. After the
cool-down, the Knob auto-
matically turns to an Off
area and tumbling stops.
• If the load is drier than you like, select a
setting closer to Less Dry the next time
you dry a similar load.
• If the load is not as dry as you like, com-
plete drying using a Timed cycle. Select a
setting closer to Very Dry the next time you
dry a similar load.
Some models offer high heat and low heat
Automatic cycles (see page 10).
NOTES:
• Some Automatic cycles use an electronic
DRY-MISER _ control that senses the
amount of moisture in the load.
• Other Automatic cycles use an automatic
DRY-MISER control that senses the
exhaust temperature and determines the
dryness of the load.
Timed Cycle(s)
Use a Timed cycle to complete drying if
some items are damp
after Automatic drying.
Timed drying is also
useful for:
• Delicate items and
small loads that need
a short drying time.
• Bulky items and large
loads that require a
long drying time.
Some models offer high heat and low heat
Timed cycles (see page 10).
Fluff Air Cycle
(on some models)
The FluffAir cycle has no heat. Use this un-
heated cycle to fluff or air
dry bedding, plastic table-
cloths, foam pillows,
sneakers, etc. See page
11 for more information
about the FluffAir cycle.
NOTE: If your model
does not have the Fluff
Air cycle, line dry heat-
sensitive items.
Heavy Dry Cycle
(on some models)
Use Heavy Dry and a high heat setting to
dry large items or items
that are thicker or
heavier than a regular
load (such as heavy
cotton bath towels or
robes).
Damp Dry Cycle
(on some models)
Use Damp Dry to dry items to damp level or
to dry items that do not
require an entire drying
cycle. Two examples
are heavy cottons, such
as jeans, which you do
not want to become stiff,
or cotton clothes which
are easier to press
when damp.
