safety and warranty information. It also has many
suggestions for best drying results.
To reduce the risk of fire, electric
shock or injury to persons, read the IMPORTANT
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS in your dryer Owner's
Guide before operating this appliance.
Operating Steps
Read "Drying Procedures" in your Owner's Guide.
It explains these operating steps in detail.
1. Prepare items for drying.
2. Check that lint filter is clean and in place.
3. Load the dryer. If desired, add a dryer fabric
softener sheet. Close the door.
4. Select the appropriate cycle and settings for
each load.
• Turn the Cycle Selector knob to select the cycle.
The estimated drying time will be
displayed.
• Suitable drying temperature, dryness level
and options will automatically be indicated for
each cycle. To change the temperature and
dryness level, press TEMP and DRYNESS
until the desired selections are made.
• To select an option, press OPTIONS until the

instructions on items to be dried. To change the
selection after the cycle has begun, press Pause/
Cancel twice, select a new cycle and press
START. Just turning the knob to another selection
will not change the cycle. The signal will beep
and the status lights will flash, but the original cycle
will continue.
Auto Dry
Auto Dry cycles take the guesswork out of drying
time. Loads dried using the Towels, Normal, Perm
Press and Delicate cycles will dry automatically at
the selected temperature to the desired dryness
level.
The dryer uses sensing bars to sense the moisture
level of the load as it tumbles through heated air.
Auto Dry cycles save time and energy and protect
fabrics. The estimated drying time will be displayed
for about 5 minutes. Then the outside of the display
will light up in a circular track to indicate the drying
time is automatically being determined by the
sensors. When the load has reached the selected
dryness level, it will continue to tumble, unheated,
during a Cool Down period. This helps reduce
wrinkling and makes items easier to handle during
unloading. The estimated Cool Down time will be
displayed.
Drying time varies depending on size and dampness
of load and fabric type. If the load is too small or
almost dry, the sensing bars may not detect enough
moisture to continue the cycle and the cycle may
end after a few minutes. Select a Timed Dry setting
to dry such loads.
Room temperature and humidity, type of installation
and electrical voltage or gas pressure can also affect
drying time.
