Use Automatic Cycles for better fabric care and energy savings
The dryer senses moisture in the load or air temperature and shuts off when the load reaches the selected dryness level.
Use the NORMAL dryness level to provide optimal energy savings. Use Automatic/Eco cycles on their default settings for optimal
energy savings.

Cycle Details:
Extended high-heat drying cycle
intended to help sanitize items such
as bedding, towels, and baby wear.
This cycle is not recommended for
all fabrics. For best results, run cycle
to completion, do not interrupt.
Offers stepped drying starting with
High heat, followed by Medium heat
for enhanced fabric care and energy
savings.
Stepped drying uses High heat
initially, followed by Medium heat
to drive moisture from jeans and
denims.
This is a long cycle with High heat
to thoroughly dry towels. This cycle
is not recommended for all fabrics.
Use for large loads of heavyweight
fabrics such as cotton towels.
Uses Medium heat to dry large loads
of mixed fabrics and items. Normal
is the preferred energy cycle.
Uses a stepped drying temperature
from Medium heat to Low heat for
improved moisture removal and
enhanced fabric care.
Use for drying large, bulky items;
do not overfill dryer drum. Partway
through the cycle, the signal
will sound to indicate when it
is time to rearrange items for
optimal drying.
Uses Medium heat to dry sheets
and lightweight linens.
Use for drying active wear and
performance fabrics that require
special care.
Uses Extra Low heat to gently dry
delicate items.
