Your dryer has a unique user interface to help you select the best cycle you need for your load. The "What to Dry" "How to Dry" layout guides
you to the optimal cycle in two easy steps:
1. First determine what items are in the load that you are trying to dry. Use that to guide your "What to Dry" selection.
2. Then determine how you want the dryer to dry them by selecting the appropriate "How to Dry" selection. Modifiers are preset for the items
being dried, but can be changed if desired.
To get the most energy savings and enhanced fabric care from your dryer, use the Automatic cycles. These cycles measure the drying air
temperature and moisture levels to turn the dryer off once the load reaches the selected dryness level. Dryer performance and results may
vary with service voltage less than rated voltage (Electric, 240 V; Gas, 120 V).
For best fabric care, choose the cycle that
best fits the load being dried.
R – Recommended Cycle
a – Alternate Cycle
Blank – Cycle is available but not optimal.
