Drying and Cycle Tips
Select the correct cycle and dryness level or temperature for your load. If a Sensor Dry Cycle
is running, the display shows the estimated cycle time, which is determined by your dryer
automatically sensing the dryness level of your load. If a Timed Dry 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.
■ To reduce wrinkling, remove the load from the dryer as soon as tumbling stops. This is
especially important for permanent press, knits, and synthetic fabrics.
■ Avoid drying heavy work clothes together with lighter fabrics. This could cause
overdrying of lighter fabrics and lead to increased shrinkage or wrinkling.
Cycle tips
■ Dry most loads using the preset cycle settings.
■ Refer to the Sensor Dry Cycles or Timed Dry Cycles Preset Settings chart (in the “Cycles”
section) for a guide to drying various loads.
■ Drying temperature and Dryness Level are preset when you choose an Sensor Dry
Cycle. You can select a different dryness level, depending on your load, by pressing
Dryness Level and choosing More or Less.
NOTE: You cannot use the Timed Dry Cycle Adjust Up or Down arrow buttons and
you cannot modify temperature with the Sensor Dry cycles.
■ If you wish to adjust the cycle length of a Timed Dry Cycle, press the Timed Dry Cycle
Adjust up or down arrow buttons. Adjust the temperature of a Timed Dry Cycle by
pressing TEMPERATURE until the desired temperature is selected.
NOTE: You cannot use the Dryness Level with Timed Dry Cycles.
Status Lights
Follow the progress of your dryer with the drying Status indicator lights.
Wet
The Wet light illuminates at the beginning of an Auto Cycle if a wet item is detected.
■ In an Sensor Dry Cycle, if a wet item is not detected after approximately 5 minutes, the
dryer goes directly into Cool Down and the Cool Down and WRINKLE PREVENT
indicators illuminate, if selected.
■ In a Timed Dry Cycle, wet items are not detected. The dryer will continue to run for the
length of time selected, and the Wet light will illuminate. The damp light will not
illuminate.
Damp
The Damp light illuminates in an Sensor Dry Cycle when the laundry is approximately 80%
dry.
Cool Down
The Cool Down light illuminates during the cool down part of the cycle. Laundry cools for
ease in handling.
Dry
The Dry light illuminates when the drying cycle is finished. This indicator stays on during
WRINKLE PREVENT.
WRINKLE PREVENT
The WRINKLE PREVENT light illuminates when this option is selected. This indicator stays on
with Dry.
Clean Lint Screen
The Clean Lint Screen light is a reminder to check to see whether the lint screen needs to be
cleaned. The Clean Lint Screen light will come on when the machine is turned on. The light
will flash until the cycle is started or the door is opened, and then the light will turn off.
Indicator lights
Other indicator lights show Cycle, Options and Modifier settings selected.
