Drying, Cycle, and Temperature Tips
Select the correct cycle and temperature for your load.
Your dryer tumbles the load without heat during the last few
minutes of all cycles to make the load easier to handle and to
reduce wrinkling. After the cool-down cycle ends, the light
flashes and an end-of-cycle signal sounds to indicate the cycle is
complete.
Drying tips
■ Follow care label directions when they are available.
■ Remove the load from the dryer as soon as tumbling stops to
reduce wrinkling. This is especially important for permanent
press, knits, and synthetic fabrics.
■ Avoid drying heavy work clothes with lighter fabrics. This
could cause overdrying of lighter fabrics, leading to increased
shrinkage or wrinkling.
Cycle and temperature tips
■ Dry most loads using an automatic cycle.
■ Line dry bonded or laminated fabrics.
NOTE: If you have questions about drying temperatures for
various loads, refer to the care label directions.

Automatic Cycles
Automatic cycles may be used for most loads. Automatic cycles
give the best drying results in the shortest time. Drying time
varies according to the type of fabric, size of the load, and
dryness setting.
After drying a load, check the dryness.
■ If the load is drier than you like, select a setting closer to Less
Dry the next time you dry a similar load.
■ If a load is not as dry as you like, complete drying using a
Timed cycle. Select a setting closer to More Dry the next time
you dry a similar load.
See following table for recommended cycles and temperature
settings.
