Follow these basic steps to start your dryer.
Please refer to specific sections of this manual
for more detailed information.
1. Clean lint screen before each load. See
"Cleaning the Lint Screen."
2. Place laundry into dryer and shut door.
3. Press POWER.
4. Point the dial to an Auto or Manual Cycle. The
preset settings for Auto or Manual Cycles
will illuminate. The estimated (auto cycle)
or actual (manual) cycle time (in minutes)
will show in the display.
NOTE: A preset time is displayed when an
automatic cycle is selected. During the first
few minutes of the drying process, the cycle
time may automatically vary from the preset
time based on the size and fabric type of the
load. Toward the end of the drying process,
the estimated time display will adjust again,
showing the final drying time.
To use an Auto Cycle
• Select an Auto Cycle. Auto cycles will de-
fault to the last dryness setting used for that
cycle.
• Select DRYNESS to adjust how dry you want
the load. The time displayed is an estimated
length of the cycle based on the Dryness
selected. As the cycle runs, the control
senses the dryness of the load and adjusts
the time automatically for the selected dry-
ness level.
NOTE: Time is not adjustable for Automatic
Cycles. Pressing the Timing Up or Down but-
tons will cause a triple beep, indicating that the
time cannot be changed.
To make changes to the Dryness and/or
Options during an Auto Cycle:
• Press PAUSE/CANCEL once.
• Adjust Dryness and/or Options.
NOTE: Dryness level selections can be made
only while using Auto Cycles. Selecting More
Dry, Normal or Less Dry automatically adjusts
the sensed time needed.
Auto Dry cycles take the guesswork out of dry-
ing time and enhance fabric care. The amount
of time that is displayed is the estimated time
remaining in the cycle.
To use a Manual Cycle
• Point the dial to a Manual Cycle.
• Press TIMING Up or Down until the desired
drying time is displayed. Tap TIMING Up or
Down, and the time will change by 1-minute
intervals. Press and hold TIMING Up or
Down, and the time will change by 5-minute
intervals.
NOTE: The Timing feature can be used only
with Manual Cycles.

perature illuminates.
