Status Lights; Additional Features - Whirlpool YWED9600TA1 Use & Care Manual

This feature allows you to lock your settings to avoid unintended
use of the dryer. You can also use the Control Locked feature to
avoid unintended cycle or option changes during dryer operation.
To enable the Control Locked feature when dryer is
running:
Press and hold the CONTROL LOCK/UNLOCK button for
3 seconds. The control is locked when a single beep is heard and
the Control Locked status light is on.
• When the dryer is off, it is not necessary to press the Control
On button before activating the Control Locked feature.
To unlock:
Press and hold the CONTROL LOCK/UNLOCK button for
3 seconds to turn this feature off.
NOTE: When the dryer is running and Control Locked is on, the
dryer can be stopped by pressing the Pause/Cancel button, but
cannot be restarted until the control is unlocked.
Select the correct cycle and dryness level or temperature for your
load. If an Automatic Cycle is running, the display shows the
estimated cycle time when your dryer is automatically sensing
the dryness level of your load. If a Manual Cycle is running, the
display shows the exact number of minutes remaining in the
cycle.
Cool Down tumbles the load without heat during the last few
minutes of all cycles. Cool Down makes the loads easier to
handle and reduces wrinkling. The length of the Cool Down
depends on the load size and dryness level.
Drying tips
• Follow care label directions when they are available.
• If desired, add a fabric softener sheet. Follow package
instructions.
• Remove the load from the dryer as soon as tumbling stops to
reduce wrinkling. This is especially important for permanent
press, knits and synthetic fabrics.
• Avoid drying heavy work clothes with lighter fabrics. This
could cause overdrying of lighter fabrics, leading to increased
shrinking or wrinkling.
• If you dry sheets in a mixed load or large items in the Bulky
Items cycle, rearrange the load when the signal sounds. This
will aid in the drying process.
Cycle tips
• Dry most loads using the preset cycle settings.
• Refer to the Automatic or Manual Preset Cycle Settings chart
(in the "Cycles" section) for a guide to drying various loads.
Drying temperature and Dryness Level are preset when
you choose an Automatic Cycle. You can choose a
different dryness level, depending on your load by
pressing the DRYNESS LEVEL button to select MORE,
NORMAL or LESS.
• If you wish to adjust the cycle length of a Manual Cycle,
you must press the DRY TIME up or down buttons. Adjust
the temperature of a Manual Cycle by pressing
TEMPERATURE until the desired temperature is selected.
NOTE: You cannot choose a Dryness Level with Manual,
Steam or Sanitize Cycles.
You may follow the progress of your dryer with the drying Status
indicator lights.
