best fabric care for your load.
WFIINKLE SHIELD
TM
Plus setting
When you are unable to remove a load of clothes from the dryer
as soon as it stops, wrinkles can form. The WRINKLE SHIELD
Plus setting periodically tumbles, rearranges and fluffs the load to
avoid wrinkles.

The WRINKLE SHIELD Plus setting periodically tumbles the load
without heat for up to 120 minutes. A signal will sound
periodically when WRINKLE SHIELD Plus is on, if the End of
Cycle Signal is selected. The signal and the cycle will end when
you open the dryer door, or turn the Cycle Control knob to Off.
End of Cycle Signal
If the End of Cycle Signal is selected, the signal sounds when a cycle
is complete. If WRINKLE SHIELD
TM
Plus is selected, the signal
sounds every few minutes. The signal stops when you open the door.
Dr 4ng Rack (Optional purchase)
You can order a drying rack by calling 1-800-253-1301
or by
contacting the dealer from whom you purchased your dryer.
The reck is useful for machine drying items you would not
necessarily want to tumble dry or that you would normally line dry
(for example, tennis shoes, pillows, stuffed toys).
To use the drying rack
1. Slide rear pegs into the dimples on the back wall of the dryer.
Lower the front legs to rest on the dryer opening.
2, Put the wet items on top of the rack. Leave space between
the items so air can reach all the surfaces. Close the door.
NOTE: Do not allow items to hang over the edge of the rack.
3. Select the Timed Drying cycle and the Air Only temperature
setting.
4.
Push the START button.
NOTE: You must remove rack for normal tumbling. Do not use
the automatic cycle with the drying rack.
This chart shows examples of items that can be rack dried and
the suggested cycle, temperature setting and drying time. Actual
drying time will depend on the amount of moisture items hold.
