Select the correct cycle and dryness
level or temperature
for your
load. If an Automatic
Cycle is running, the display shows the
estimated cycle time when your dryer is automatically sensing
the dryness level of your load. If a Manual Cycle is running, the
display shows the exact number of minutes remaining in the
cycle.
Cool Down tumbles the load without heat during the last few
minutes of all cycles. Cool Down makes the loads easier to
handle and reduces wrinkling. The length of the Cool Down
depends on the load size and dryness level.
Drying tips
Follow care label directions when they are available.
If you use fabric softener sheets, use only ones labeled as
dryer safe. Follow package instructions.
Remove the load from the dryer as soon as tumbling stops to
reduce wrinkling. This is especially important for permanent
press, knits, and synthetic fabrics.
Avoid drying heavy work clothes with lighter fabrics. This
could cause overdrying of lighter fabrics, leading to increased
shrinkage or wrinkling.
Cycle tips
Dry most loads using the preset cycle settings.
Refer to the Automatic or Manual Preset Cycle Settings chart
(in the "Cycles" section) for a guide to drying various loads.
Drying temperature
and Dryness Level are preset when
you choose an Automatic
Cycle. You can choose a
different dryness level, depending
on your load by
pressing the DRYNESS LEVEL button to select MORE or
LESS.
If you wish to adjust the cycle length of a Manual Cycle,
you must press MORE TIME or LESS TIME. Adjust the
temperature of a Manual Cycle by pressing
TEMPERATURE until the desired temperature
is selected.
NOTE: You cannot choose a Dryness Level with Manual
Cycles.
You may follow the progress of your dryer with the drying Status
indicator lights.

Sensing
When the dryer is first turned on, the SENSING light glows until a
wet item is detected.
In an Automatic Cycle, if a wet item has not been detected
within 10 minutes, the Sensing light will turn off and the dryer
will shut down.
In a Manual Cycle, if a wet item is not detected after 10
minutes the Wet light turns on and the selected cycle
continues.
Automatic Cycles allow you to match the cycle to the load you
are drying. See the following "Automatic
Preset Cycle Settings"
chart. Each cycle dries certain fabrics at the recommended
temperature. A sensor detects the moisture in the load and
automatically
adjusts the drying time for optimal drying.
Heavy Duty
Use this cycle to get High heat for heavy fabrics such as cotton
towels or bedspreads.
