Getting started
Start/Pause
F
Press to start a dry cycle. If the dryer is running, press it once and it will pause the dryer.
Press it again to resume the dry cycle.
G
Signal
H
Alerts you that the cycle is complete. The beeper will continue to sound every minute for the
next 5 minutes, until the clothes have been removed. The clothes should be removed when
the beeper goes off so wrinkles don't set in.
Press Signal to select low, medium or high volume, or to turn the beeper off.
To turn on or off the sounds the buttons make when pressed, press and hold the Signal
button for 3 seconds.
eDry
I
Reduces the total energy consumption of specific dryer cycles by adjusting certain heat settings.
NOTE: Cycle times will change when e-Dry is selected. The eDry option will default to on
for Cottons. For optimal energy savings, turn eDry on. For optimal drying times, turn eDry off.
Energy savings will vary across loads and cycles.
This cycle can be used with Mixed Loads, Cottons, Delicates and Speed Dry. When the eDry
button is pressed, cycle settings change to reduce the total energy consumption of the selected
sensor cycle.
Clean Lint Filter Message
J
CLEAN LINT FILTER
This message represents only a reminder and does not always appear when the filter needs
cleaning. The filter should be cleaned after every drying cycle is complete.
This message will disappear after the Start/Pause button is pressed. Even though you
may have already cleaned the filter (before or after the Power button has been pressed),
the "CLEAN LINT FILTER" message will still be displayed until the Start/Pause button is
activated.
Display
K
Displays the approximate time remaining until the end of the cycle.
As the cycle begins, you will see an initial approximate total cycle time in the display.
Then lights will "race" in the display. This means the dryer is continuously monitoring the
amount of moisture in the load. The lights will continue until the dryer senses a low level of
moisture in the load. At that point, the dryer will calculate and display the approximate time
remaining.
Lock Controls
L
You can lock the controls to prevent any selections from being made. Or you can lock or
unlock the controls after you have started a cycle.
Children cannot accidentally start the dryer by touching buttons with this option selected.
To lock/unlock the dryer controls, press and hold the Lock button for 3 seconds. A sound is
made to indicate the lock/unlock status. The indicator light above the button will illuminate
when the controls are locked.
NOTE: The Power button can still be used when the machine is locked.

Ext Tumble

dry. The beeper will sound every two minutes as a reminder to remove the clothes. The
ESTIMATED TIME REMAINING display will show 0:00.
The extended tumble time does not get added to the cycle time on the display.
