• Sort heavy items from lightweight items.
• Check that the washer is draining properly to extract adequate water from
the load.

• This is normal operation for an IntelliDry cycle, especially at the beginning of
cycle. Once the load begins to dry, the control knob will start to advance. The
rate of advancement will be slow at the beginning of the cycle because there is
more moisture in the load. As the load becomes more dry, the control knob will
advance more quickly.
