Changing the Automatic Cycle
Settings to Increase Drying Time
If all your loads on all Automatic cycles are consistently not
as dry as you would like, you may change the default
settings to increase the default dryness level.
Your automatic drying settings can be adjusted to adapt to
different installations, environmental conditions or personal
preference. This change is retained and will affect all of your
Automatic cycles, not just the current cycle/load. There
are 3 drying settings, which are displayed using the time
display:
01 Factory preset dryness level.
02 Slightly drier clothes, 15% more drying time.
03 Much drier clothes, 30% more drying time.
To change the drying settings:
NOTE: The settings cannot be changed while the dryer is
running or paused. The dryer must be in standby mode (the
power button is off) to adjust the default settings.
1. Before starting a cycle, press and hold the TEMP button
for 6 seconds.
2. Press the TEMP button to select the dryness level
shown in the time display: 01, 02, or 03.
3. Press START/PAUSE to save the new dryness level
setting.
