Changing the Sensor Cycle Settings to
Increase Drying Time
If all your loads on all Sensor cycles are consistently not as
dry as you would like, you may change the default settings
to increase the default dryness level.
Your sensor drying settings can be adjusted to adapt to
different installations, environmental conditions, or personal
preference. This change is retained and will affect all of your
Sensor cycles, not just the current cycle/load. There are 3
drying settings, which are displayed using the “Status” lights
(Wet, Damp, Cool Down)
1 Factory preset dryness level.
2 Slightly drier clothes, 15% more drying time.
3 Much drier clothes, 30% more drying time.
To change the drying settings:
NOTE: The settings cannot be changed while the dryer is
running or paused. The dryer must be in standby mode (the
power button is off) to adjust the default settings.
1. Before starting a cycle, press and hold the TEMP LEVEL
button for 6 seconds.
2. Press the TEMP LEVEL button to select the dryness level
shown in the LED display: Wet light on = level 1, Wet
and Damp lights on = level 2, and Wet, Damp, and Cool
Down lights on = level 3.
3. Press START/PAUSE to save the new dryness level setting.
Vacation, storage, and moving care
Install and store your dryer where it will not freeze. Because
some water may stay in the hoses, freezing can damage your
dryer. If storing or moving your dryer during freezing weather,
winterize it.

on vacation or not using your dryer for an extended period of
time, you should:
