dryness
The default dryness setting is Normal when an Sensor Cycle is selected. You can
select a different dryness [eve[, depending on your load, by pressing SENSOR CYCI_ES
DRYN ESS and choosing More Dry, Normal, or I_ess Dry. Selecting More Dry, Normal,
or I.ess Dry automatically adjusts the dryness [eve[ at which the dryer will shut off.
Once a dryness [eve[ is set, it cannot be changed without stopping the cycle.
The Sensor Cycles Dryness can be changed only with Sensor Cycles.
Press the WRINKI.E PREVENT feature button if this option is desired.
Press the SIGNAl. ON/OFF button to set the end of cycle signal.
Press and hold START/PAUSE button until dryer starts (about 1 second).
The Wrinkle Prevent and Cycle Signal features can be adjusted during a Sensor Cycle. If
you want to select another Sensor Cycle or Sensor Cycle Dryness, press START/PAUSE once
to stop the dryer, make the desired changes, then press START/PAUSE to resume drying.
NOTE: Time and Temperature are not adjustable for Sensor Cycles. Pressing the TIME
ADJUST or TIMED CYCI.ES TEMP buttons will cause a triple beep, indicating that the time
cannot be changed.
How Sensor Cycles Work
This feature improves drying with Auto Moisture Sensing Plus, which advances the cycle
as moisture is extracted from clothing. A thermistor (electronic temperature sensor) and
moisture sensing strips in the dryer drum help measure the amount of moisture in the
clothes as they tumble. An electronic control determines the load type to help save time,
avoid overdrying, and increase the accuracy of the end dryness [eve[. After the first 5
minutes of a Sensor cycle, the estimated time display will adjust based on the
approximate load size, cycle, dryness [eve[ selected and amount of moisture [eft in the
clothes. When the clothes have reached approximately 80% of the dryness [eve[ selected,
the estimated time display will adjust again, showing the final drying time. Auto Moisture
Sensing Plus takes the guesswork out of drying time and enhances fabric care.
To use a Timed Cycle
NOTE: A light next to each feature will glow yellow when the feature is selected. The light
will not glow when the selection is unavailable with the cycle or option combinations
selected.
• Press POWER/CANCEl .....

• Press the TIME ADJUST up or down buttons until the desired drying time is displayed.
Press TIME ADJUST, and the time will change by 1-minute intervals. Press and hold

While a Timed Cycle is running, you can change the settings for Time, Temperature, the
WRINKI_E PREVENT feature and the cycle signals. Press the START/PAUSE button once to
stop the dryeb allowing you to select another cycle.
Air Dry
Use the Air Dry temperature for items that require drying without heat such as rubbe_; plastic
and heat-sensitive fabrics. This chart shows examples of items that can be dried using Air
Only.
Type of Load Time*

Foam rubber - pillows, padded bras, stuffed toys 20 - 30
Plastic - Shower curtains, tablecloths 20 - 30
Rubber-backed rugs 40 - 50
O[efin, po[ypropy[ene, sheer nylon 10 - 20
