How Auto Moisture Sensing Plus works
The Even-Heat™ feature improves drying performance 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 pass. An electronic control determines the load type to
help save time, prevent overdrying, and increase the
accuracy of the end dryness level. After the first 5 minutes of
an automatic cycle, the estimated time display will adjust
based on the approximate load size, cycle, dryness level
selected and amount of moisture left in the clothes. When the
clothes have reached approximately 80% of the dryness level
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 Manual Cycle
■ Rotate the dial to select a Manual Cycle.
Press MANUAL DRY TIME (- or +) buttons until the desired
drying time is displayed. Tap - or + and the time will change
by 1-minute intervals. Press and hold - or + and the time will
change by 5-minute intervals. The initial time displayed is the
actual drying time.
NOTE: The Manual Dry Time feature can be used only with
Manual Cycles.
■ Press TEMP until the desired temperature glows.
NOTE: Pressing the Dryness Level button will cause the triple
beep indicating that this option is not selectable. Also, a
Dryness Level is not indicated.
■ Press the EXTRA CARE feature button if this option is
desired.
■ Press the CYCLE END SIGNAL button to set volume to
desired level.
■ Press (and hold) HOLD TO START button until dryer starts
(about 1 second).
While a Manual Cycle is running, you can change the settings
for Time, Temperature, the Extra Care feature, and the Cycle
End Signal. Press the OFF button twice to stop the dryer and
clear the settings, allowing you to select another cycle.
Stopping Your Dryer
To stop your dryer at any time
Press OFF twice or open the door.
Pausing or Restarting
To pause the dryer at any time
Open the door or press OFF once.
To restart the dryer
Close the door and press (and hold) HOLD TO START button until
dryer starts.
NOTE: Drying will continue from where the cycle was interrupted
if you close the door and press Start within 5 minutes. If the cycle
is interrupted for more than 5 minutes, the dryer will shut off.
Select new cycle settings before restarting the dryer.
Control Locked
This feature allows you to lock your settings to prevent
unintended use of the dryer. You can also use the Control Locked
feature to prevent unintended cycle or option changes during
dryer operation.
To enable the Control Locked feature when dryer is
running:
Press and hold the CYCLE END SIGNAL button for 3 seconds.
The control is locked when a single beep is heard and the Control
Locked status light is on.
■ When the dryer is off, it is not necessary to press the Control
On button before activating the Control Locked feature.
To unlock:
Press and hold the CYCLE END SIGNAL button for 3 seconds to
turn this feature off.
NOTE: When the dryer is running and Control Locked is on, the
dryer can be stopped by pressing the Off button, but can’t be
restarted until the control is unlocked.
Drying and Cycle Tips
Select the correct cycle and dryness level or temperature for your
load. If an Automatic Cycle is running, the display shows the
estimated cycle time when your dryer is automatically sensing
the dryness level of your load. If a Manual Cycle is running, the
display shows the exact number of minutes remaining in the
cycle.
Cool Down tumbles the load without heat during the last few
minutes of all cycles. Cool Down makes the loads easier to
handle and reduces wrinkling. The length of the Cool Down
depends on the load size and dryness level.
Drying tips
■ Follow care label directions when they are available.
■ If desired, add a fabric softener sheet. 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.
■ Avoid drying heavy work clothes with lighter fabrics. This
could cause overdrying of lighter fabrics, leading to increased
shrinking or wrinkling.
Cycle tips
■ Dry most loads using the preset cycle settings.
■ Refer to the Automatic or Manual Preset Cycle Settings chart
(in the “Cycles” section) for a guide to drying various loads.
■ Drying temperature and Dryness Level are preset when
you choose an Automatic Cycle. You can choose a
different dryness level, depending on your load by
pressing the DRYNESS LEVEL button to select MORE or
LESS.
■ If you wish to adjust the cycle length of a Manual Cycle,
you must press the MANUAL DRY TIME (- or +) buttons.
Adjust the temperature of a Manual Cycle by pressing
TEMP until the desired temperature is selected.
NOTE: You cannot choose a Dryness Level with Manual
Cycles.
