Drying, Cycle and Temperature Tips

Select the correct cycle and temperature for your load.
Dryer tips
Press firmly in the center of the pad.
The indicator light next to the pad will light up when a
selection is valid.
A short tone will sound when a selection is valid.
Three short tones will sound when a selection is not valid.
After your first use, your dryer "remembers" the Dryness
level, WRINKLE SHIELD™ setting and End of Cycle Signal
setting you selected.
If you press and hold the pad with either the Temperature
selector, the End of Cycle Signal selector or the More Dry or
Less Dry arrows, you will advance the settings.
If you press and hold the Less Time or More Time arrows in
the Timed Cycles, the time will advance in five minute
intervals.
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.
Cool Down tumbles the load without heat during the last few
minutes of all cycles. Cool Down makes the loads easier to
handle.
Cycle tips
Use the Timed Dry cycle with the Air Only (no heat)
Temperature setting for rubber, plastic or heat sensitive
fabrics.
Temperature tips
If your dryer has multiple heat settings:
Use a high heat setting for drying heavyweight items such as
towels and work clothes.
Use a medium heat setting for drying medium-weight items
such as sheets, underwear, permanent press fabrics, and
some knits.
Use a low heat setting for drying lightweight items such as
lingerie, blouses, dresses, and some knits.
8
Use a no heat (air) setting for rubber, plastic or heat sensitive
fabrics.
Line dry bonded or laminated fabrics.
If you are unsure of the temperature to select for a load, select
the lower setting rather than the higher setting
NOTE: If you have questions about drying temperatures for
various loads, refer to the care label directions.

CYCLE DESCRIPTIONS

Automatic Cycle(s)

Use your Automatic Cycles to dry most loads. Your dryer uses
the SENSEON™ Drying System. Electronic sensors measure the
temperature of the exhaust to increase or decrease drying
temperatures for faster reaction time and tighter temperature
control. Your two most frequently used cycles, Heavy Duty and
Normal, are enhanced with the SENSEON system to provide the
shortest drying time.
After drying a load in any of the Automatic Cycles, check the
dryness.
If the load is drier than you like, press the down arrow to
select a setting closer to Less Dry the next time you dry a
similar load.
If a load is not as dry as you like, complete drying using a
Timed cycle. Press the Up arrow to select a setting closer to
More Dry the next time you dry a similar load.
NOTE: The Up and Down arrows are located next to the
Automatic Cycles pads.
To use the Automatic Cycles
1. Press the desired AUTOMATIC CYCLES pad.
2. Press the Up or Down arrows to select from five levels of
More Dry or Less Dry, if desired.
3. Select the WRINKLE SHIELD™ setting, if desired.
4. Press the Bell symbol to select the End of Cycle Signal
Volume.
5. Press START.
NOTE: The Estimated drying time varies from the actual drying
time with an Automatic cycle. The type of fabric, size of the load,
and the dryness selected affect drying time. See "Drying, Cycle
and Temperature tips."
