Timed Cycles
Use Timed Cycles to select a specific amount of drying time and a drying temperature. When
a Timed Cycle is selected, the Estimated Time Remaining display shows the actual time
remaining in your cycle. You can change the actual time in the cycle by pressing the Timed
Cycle Adjust up or down arrows. See “Changing Cycles, Modifiers and Options.”
NOTE: Timed Cycles may also be used with the dryer rack. See “Dryer Rack.”
Timed Dry
Use this cycle to complete drying if items are still damp after a Sensor Dry Cycle. Timed Dry
is also useful for drying heavyweight and bulky items, such as bedspreads and work clothes.
Lightweight garments, such as exercise wear, can be dried using Timed Dry on a low
temperature setting.
Quick Dry
Use this cycle for drying small loads or loads that need a short drying time.
Freshen Up
Use this cycle to help smooth out wrinkles from such items as clothes packed in a suitcase or
items wrinkled from being left in the dryer too long.
Modifiers
Sensor Dry Cycle Modifiers
Use the DRYNESS button to select dryness levels for the Sensor Dry Cycles. Press DRYNESS
until the desired Dryness setting illuminates.
The preset dryness setting is Normal when a Sensor Dry Cycle is selected. You can select a
different dryness level, depending on your load, by pressing Dryness and choosing More,
Normal, Less or Damp. Selecting More, Normal, Less or Damp automatically adjusts the
dryness level at which the dryer will shut off. Once a dryness level is set, it cannot be changed
without stopping the cycle.
NOTE: Dryness Level selections cannot be used with the Timed Cycles.
Timed Cycle Modifiers
Use the TEMPERATURE button to select temperatures for the Timed Cycles. Press TEMP until
the desired temperature setting illuminates.

and heat-sensitive fabrics. This table shows examples of items that can be dried using Air
Fluff.
