Auto Cycles
Auto Cycles allow you to match the cycle to the load you are
drying. See the following Auto Preset Cycle Settings chart. Each

sensor detects the moisture in the load and automatically adjusts
the drying time for optimal drying.

Use this cycle to get High heat for heavyweight mixed loads,
cotton towels or jeans.
Normal
Use this cycle to get Medium heat for drying mixed loads and
sturdy fabrics such as work clothes.
Casual
Use this cycle to get Low heat for drying no-iron fabrics such as
sport shirts, casual business clothes and permanent press
blends.

Use this cycle to get Low heat for drying synthetic fabrics,
washable knit fabrics and no-iron finishes.
Super Delicate
Use this cycle to get Extra Low heat to gently dry items such as
lingerie, exercise wear or sheer curtains.
Damp Dry

dry items that do not require an entire drying cycle. Damp dry
items such as jeans (to avoid stiffness) or cotton clothing (to
