CYCLE STATUS INDICATORS

Appearance may vary
The Cycle Status Indicators show the progress of a cycle. Not all
indicators are available on all models.
Sensing
The Sensing indicator will light during Sensor Cycles to
indicate that the moisture sensor on the dryer is operating. This
indicator will not light during Timed Cycles or options such as
Wrinkle Prevent.
Check Vent
This indicator will show the status of airflow through the dryer
and the dryer vent system for the dryer's life. During the sensing
phase at the beginning of the cycle, the Check Vent light will
come on if a blocked vent or low airflow issue is detected. This
light will stay on for the entire cycle. The light will be cleared
when selecting a new cycle, touching POWER, or opening the
door after the cycle has completed. This feature is available
during Sensor and Steam cycles only. For more information
on maintaining good airflow, see "Check Your Vent System for
Good Airflow".
NOTE: If there are other error issues during a cycle, the Check
Vent indicator will not light up. See "Troubleshooting" section.
Good Airflow
This indicator will light if there is no major vent blockage.
Steaming
This indicator will light when a steam function is active.
NOTE: Steam is not available on all cycles.
Done
This will indicate that the selected cycle has ended and the load
may be removed from the dryer. If Wrinkle Prevent has been
selected, the dryer may continue to tumble the load, even if
the Done indicator is lit.
Check Lint Screen
The Check Lint Screen indicator will light when the drying
cycle is complete as a reminder to clean the lint screen.

ADDITIONAL FEATURES

USING THE DRYING RACK
To purchase a drying rack for your dryer, order by calling
1-877-944-7566. You will need your model and serial number
and the purchase date. Remove and discard any packing
material before use.
Use the Drying Rack for items that you do not want to tumble
dry, such as sweaters and tennis shoes. When you use the
drying rack, the drum continues to turn, but the rack remains
stationary.
The drying rack is intended for use with the Timed Dry cycle
only. The drying rack cannot be used with Sensor cycles.
To use the drying rack:
IMPORTANT: Do not remove the lint screen.
1. Open dryer door.
2. Align the two hooks on the front of the drying rack with the
holes in the dryer door opening and press down fully into
holes. Rest the rear support on the dryer back ledge.
3. Place wet items on top of the drying rack. Allow space
around items for air to circulate. The drying rack does not
move, but the drum will rotate; be sure to leave adequate
clearance between items and the inside of the dryer drum.
Make sure items do not hang over the edges or between
drying rack grille.
4. Close the door.
5. Select a Timed Dry/Air Only/Air Dry, or Low Temperature
cycle. Items containing foam, rubber, or plastic must be
dried on a clothesline or by using the Air Only setting
or Air Dry cycle, depending on model.
6. When the cycle is selected, the Estimated Time Remaining
display shows the default time. You can change the actual
time in the cycle by increasing or decreasing the cycle time.
7. Start the dryer.
NOTE: Check the lint screen and remove any lint accumulated
from items dried on the drying rack after the cycle is finished.
