Optional Features
Drum Light
Select Drum Light to turn on the light inside the dryer drum. During a cycle, if DRUM LIGHT
is selected, the drum light turns on and will remain on until DRUM LIGHT is pressed again,
the door is open and closed, or the door is left open for 20 minutes.
When the dryer is not running, the drum light will turn on when DRUM LIGHT is pressed or
the dryer door is opened, and it will remain on until the dryer door has been open for
20 minutes, the dryer door is closed or DRUM LIGHT is pressed again.
Press DRUM LIGHT at any time to turn the drum light ON or OFF.
WRINKLE PREVENT Feature
When you are unable to remove a load of clothes from the dryer as soon as it stops, wrinkles
can form. The WRINKLE PREVENT feature periodically tumbles, rearranges and fluffs the load
to help keep wrinkles from forming.
Press the WRINKLE PREVENT feature to get up to 120 minutes of heat-free,
periodic tumbling at the end of a cycle.
Stop at any time by pressing the WRINKLE PREVENT feature or opening the dryer door.
Other cycles will retain the WRINKLE PREVENT feature setting. (For example, if you
select the WRINKLE PREVENT feature in the Normal cycle, the WRINKLE PREVENT
feature will be on the next time you select the Normal cycle.)
NOTE: If you do not select the WRINKLE PREVENT feature, the dryer stops after the cool
down period.
Damp Dry Signal
The Damp Dry Signal may be selected to alert you that your clothes are approximately 80%
dry. This is useful when you want to remove lightweight items in a mixed load to avoid
overdrying or remove partially dry items that may need ironing.
The DAMP DRY SIGNAL is useful when drying bedsheets/linens in a mixed load. When the
signal goes off, open the door to stop the dryer, rearrange the load inside the dryer, close the
door and restart the dryer to finish the drying cycle. Rearranging the load will aid in the drying
process.
Press DAMP DRY SIGNAL to turn the alarm on or off.
NOTE: The Damp Dry Signal works only with Sensor Cycles. It is not selectable for the
Sanitize cycle.
Signal On/Off
When on, this feature produces an audible sound when the drying cycle is finished. Promptly
removing clothes at the end of the cycle reduces wrinkling.
Press SIGNAL ON/OFF. The light on the control will glow yellow when the Cycle Signal is on.
NOTE: When the WRINKLE PREVENT feature is selected and the End of Cycle Signal is on, an
audible sound will be emitted every 5 minutes until the clothes are removed, or the WRINKLE
PREVENT feature is finished.

You can change Sensor Cycles, Timed Cycles, Modifiers and Options anytime before pressing

Changing the Preset Sensor Cycles Dryness Settings
If all your loads on all Sensor cycles are consistently not as dry as you would like, you may
change the preset Sensor Cycles Dryness settings to increase the dryness. This change will
affect all of your Sensor cycles.
Your Sensor Cycles Dryness settings can be adjusted to adapt to different installations,
environmental conditions or personal preference. There are 3 drying settings: 1 (factory preset
dryness level), 2 (slightly dryer clothes, approximately 15% more drying time) and 3 (much
dryer clothes, approximately 30% more drying time).
1. The Sensor Cycles Dryness settings cannot be changed while the dryer is running.
2. Press and hold the Sensor Cycles Dryness button for 5 seconds. The dryer will beep, and
“CF” will be displayed on the Estimated Time Remaining screen for 1 second followed by
the current drying setting.
3. To select a new drying setting, press the Sensor Cycles Dryness key again until the desired
drying setting is shown.
NOTE: While cycling through the settings, the current setting will not flash, but the other
settings will flash.
4. Press START/PAUSE to save the drying setting.
5.
The drying setting you selected will become your new preset drying setting for all Sensor cycles.
