Additional Features
WRINKLE SHIELD™ Feature
When you are unable to remove a load of clothes from the dryer
as soon as it stops, wrinkles can form. The WRINKLE SHIELD
feature periodically tumbles, rearranges and fluffs the load to
avoid wrinkles.
Press the WRINKLE SHIELD 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 SHIELD feature
or opening the dryer door.
For the Casual Cycle, the WRINKLE SHIELD feature is
preset to On. The other Automatic Cycles will retain the
WRINKLE SHIELD feature setting. (For example, if you
select the WRINKLE SHIELD feature in the Normal cycle,
the WRINKLE SHIELD feature will be on the next time you
select the Normal cycle.)
NOTE:
If you do not select the WRINKLE SHIELD feature, the
dryer stops after the cool down period.
Temperature
Temperature settings are used with the Manual Cycles. Press
TEMPERATURE until the desired temperature setting glows.
Temperature settings cannot be used with the Automatic Cycles.
Air Only
Use the Air Only setting for items that require drying without heat
such as rubber, plastic and heat-sensitive fabrics. This chart
shows examples of items that can be dried using Air Only.
*Reset time to complete drying, if needed.
When using Air Only
Check to see that coverings are securely stitched.
Shake and fluff pillows by hand periodically during the cycle.
Dry item completely. Foam rubber pillows are slow to dry.
NOTE:
Automatic Cycles are not available when using the Air
Only setting.
End of Cycle Signal
The End of Cycle Signal produces an audible sound when the
drying cycle is finished. Promptly removing clothes at the end of
the cycle reduces wrinkling.
Press and release the END OF CYCLE SIGNAL to adjust the
sound level or turn off the signal.
NOTE:
When the WRINKLE SHIELD feature is selected and the
End of Cycle Signal is on, an audible sound will emit every
5 minutes until the clothes are removed, or the WRINKLE
SHIELD feature is finished.

necessarily want to tumble dry or that you would normally line dry
