Additional Features
Extra Care
Extra Care helps keep wrinkles from forming when you cannot
unload the dryer promptly at the end of a cycle. During this
option, the dryer stops tumbling and then tumbles again for a
brief period. A signal will sound periodically when the Extra Care
feature is on, if the Cycle End Tone option is selected.
Press Extra Care to get up to 2.5 hours of heat-free, periodic
tumbling at the end of a cycle.
Stop Extra Care at any time by pressing Extra Care or
opening the dryer door.
For the Normal/Casual Automatic Cycle, Extra Care is preset
to on. The other Automatic Cycles will retain the Extra Care
setting. For example, if you select Extra Care in the Delicate
cycle, Extra Care will be on the next time you select the
Delicate cycle.
NOTE: If you do not select Extra Care, the dryer stops after cool
down.
Cycle End Tone
If the Cycle End Tone option is selected, a signal will sound when
a cycle is complete. If the Extra Care feature is selected, the
signal sounds every few minutes. The signal stops when you
open the door.

or to turn the signal off.
