To use an Automatic Cycle
NOTE: A light next to each feature will glow green when the
feature is selected or will glow amber when the feature is
selectable. The light will not glow when the selection is
unavailable with the cycle or option combinations selected.
Press the POWER button.
Rotate the dial to select an Automatic Cycle.
Select DRYNESS LEVEL to adjust how dry you want the
load to be. As the cycle runs, the control senses the
dryness of the load and adjusts the time automatically for
the selected Dryness Level.
NOTE: Most loads may be dried using Normal, which is
shown in boldface type on your control panel. Normal is the
energy preferred dryness level and will use the least energy.
The default dryness setting is Normal when an Auto Dry
Cycle is selected. You can select a different dryness level,
depending on your load, by pressing DRYNESS LEVEL
and choosing More, Normal or Less. Selecting More,
Normal or Less automatically adjusts the dryness level at
which the dryer will shut off. Once a dryness level is set, it
cannot be changed without stopping the cycle.
The Dryness Level can be changed only with Automatic
Cycles.
Press the WRINKLE SHIELD™ feature button if this
option is desired.
Press the CYCLE SIGNAL button to set end of cycle
signal volume to desired level.
Press the DAMP DRY CYCLE SIGNAL button to set damp
dry signal volume to desired level.
Press and hold START button until dryer starts (about
1 second).
Once an Automatic cycle has started, the WRINKLE
SHIELD™ feature and cycle signals can be adjusted. Press
the PAUSE/CANCEL key twice to clear the settings, allowing
you to select another cycle and Dryness Level.
NOTE: Time and Temperature are not adjustable for
Automatic Cycles. Pressing the DRY TIME or TEMPERATURE
buttons will cause a triple beep, indicating that the time
cannot be changed.
How Automatic Cycles Work
The AccelerCare™ function improves drying performance
with Auto Moisture Sensing Plus, which advances the cycle
as moisture is extracted from clothing. A thermistor
(electronic temperature sensor) and moisture sensing strips in
the dryer drum help measure the amount of moisture in the
clothes as they tumble. An electronic control determines the
load type to help save time, avoid overdrying, and increase
the accuracy of the end dryness level. After the first 5 minutes
of an automatic cycle, the estimated time display will adjust
based on the approximate load size, cycle, dryness level
selected and amount of moisture left in the clothes. When the
clothes have reached approximately 80% of the dryness level
selected, the estimated time display will adjust again,
showing the final drying time. The AccelerCare™ feature
takes the guesswork out of drying time and enhances fabric
care.
