Status Lights; Cycles - Maytag W10150622A Use And Care Manual

Drying tips
Follow care label directions when they are available.
If desired, add a fabric softener sheet. Follow package instructions.
To reduce wrinkling, remove the load from the dryer as soon as tumbling stops. This is
especially important for permanent press, knits and synthetic fabrics.
Avoid drying heavy work clothes together with lighter fabrics. This could cause
overdrying of lighter fabrics and lead to increased shrinkage or wrinkling.
Cycle tips
Dry most loads using the preset cycle settings.
Refer to the Sensor Dry or Timed 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 a Sensor Dry
Cycle. You can select a different dryness level, depending on your load, by pressing
Dryness and choosing More, Normal, Less or Damp.
NOTE: You cannot use the Timed Cycle Adjust and you cannot choose a Temperature
with the Sensor Dry Cycles.
If you wish to adjust the cycle length of a Timed Cycle, press the Timed Cycle Adjust
up or down arrows. Adjust the temperature of a Timed Cycle by pressing Temp until
the desired temperature is selected.
NOTE: You cannot choose a dryness level with Timed Cycles.

Status Lights

Follow the progress of your dryer with the drying Status indicator lights.
Sensing
In a Sensor Dry Cycle, the Sensing light illuminates until a wet item is detected.
In a Timed Cycle, the Sensing light illuminates at the beginning of a cycle and turns off
5 minutes into the cycle.
Wet
The Wet light illuminates at the beginning of a Sensor Dry Cycle if a wet item is detected.
In a Sensor Dry Cycle, if a wet item is not detected after approximately 5 minutes, the
dryer goes directly into Cool Down. The Cool Down and the Wrinkle Prevent setting
indicators will illuminate, if selected.
In a Timed Cycle, wet items are not detected. The dryer will continue to run for the length
of time selected, and the Wet light will illuminate. The damp light will not illuminate.
Damp
The Damp light illuminates in a Sensor Dry Cycle when the laundry is approximately 80%
dry. Damp Dry Chime beeps, if selected. See "Options."

The Cool Down light illuminates during the cool down part of the cycle. Laundry cools for
ease in handling.

Wrinkle Prevent setting.
Wrinkle Prevent Setting
The Wrinkle Prevent setting light illuminates when this option is selected. This indicator stays
on during the Wrinkle Prevent setting.
Indicator lights
Other indicator lights show Cycle, Modifiers, Options and Cycle Signal settings selected. The
display shows the estimated or actual time remaining.
Select the drying cycle that matches the type of load you are drying. See Sensor Dry or Timed
Preset Cycle Settings charts.
Sensor Dry Cycles
Sensor Dry Cycles allow you to match the cycle to the load you are drying. See the following
Sensor Dry 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.
Heavy Duty
Use this cycle to get high 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 items such as lingerie, blouses or washable
knit fabrics.
