heavyweight and
mediumweight cotton
items, such as towels,
linens, bedspreads,
work clothes, blue
jeans, and corduroys.
Set your Temperature
selector to Hi or Med
Hi heat.

more drying time and can also be used for extra
heavy items such as mattress pads and quilts.
Automatic cycles
Operating Your Dryer
Your dryer has 2 Automatic cycles: Regular/Heavy
and Permanent Press. Both Automatic cycles use
an electronic dryness sensor control that senses the
amount of moisture in the load and shuts off the
dryer when the selected dryness is reached.
The Cycle Control Knob does not move until the
load is almost dry. After the cool-down, the Knob
automatically turns to an Off area and tumbling
stops.
Dry most loads using the Energy Preferred Auto-
matic Setting (
*
) in the Regular/Heavy cycle.
For any Automatic setting, you can choose any
temperature setting you want. Suggested tempera-
ture settings are listed below.
If the load is drier than you like, select a setting
closer to Less Dry the next time you dry a
similar load.
If the load is not as dry as you like, complete drying
using the Timed Dry cycle (see next page). Select a
setting closer to Very Dry the next time you dry a
similar load.
The Extra Care feature protects your clothing from
wrinkles if you are unable to unload the dryer within
5 minutes after tumbling stops. The Extra Care
feature tumbles the load without heat every few
minutes up to 40 minutes after the cycle ends.
On models KEYS777E and KGYS777E, you can
set the Extra Care feature On or Off (see page 8).
If the SELECTRA
button is set to Off, the Perma-
nent Press cycle ends after cool-down.
A signal sounds every few minutes when Extra
Care is running. The signal and cycle stop when
you open the dryer door.
Use the Permanent Press Automatic cycle for
heavyweight and
mediumweight perma-
nent press items, knits,
and other synthetic
fabrics.
Set your Temperature
selector to Hi, Med,
or Low heat.
