Automatic Dry
Use Automatic Dry for better fabric care and energy savings. The dryer senses temperature in the drum and shuts off when the load
reaches the selected dryness level.

If loads do not seem as dry as you would like, turn the knob closer to More Dry the next time you dry a similar load. If loads seem drier
than you like, turn the knob closer to Less Dry the next time you dry a similar load.
Select the temperature based on the fabrics in your load. If you are unsure of the temperature to select for a load, select the lower setting
rather than the higher setting.
