As the timer advances towards the off
position, the switch arm drops into step
one. This breaks the circuit to the
heater. Since the circuit is still made to
the drive motor, the tumbler will con-
tinue to rotate and the air will continue
to be pulled through the tumbler
cooling the load before the dryer shuts
off.

Auto Dry Models
The length of the cool-down period
depetlds upon the cycle selection. Per-
manent Press has an extended cool-
down to lower the temperature of the
garments so as to minimize wrinkling
which would result from the warm gar-
ments coming to rest at the bottom of
the tumbler.

The auto dry models operate on the
principle that as long as the load being
dried is damp, and rapid evaporation is
taking place, the temperature of the
dryer and exhaust air will remain rela-
tively low. It also follows that as the
load gives up moisture and the rate of
evaporation slows down, less BTU's or
heat is used in evaporation and the
temperature of the load and exhaust air
