Loading Clothes
Load clothes loosely into the dryer. Do not pack the dryer. Allow
space for clothes to tumble freely. The following chart shows
examples of balanced loads that would allow for proper tumbling.
Drying, Cycle and Temperature Tips
Select the correct cycle and temperature for your load.
Cool Down tumbles the load without heat during the last few
minutes of all cycles to make the load easier to handle.
Drying tips
■ Always follow care label directions when they are available.
■ If you use fabric softener sheets, use only ones labeled as
dryer safe. Follow package instructions.
■ 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.
Cycle tips
■ Use the Energy Preferred Automatic Setting (
*
) with the
RESOURCE SAVER™ temperature setting to save the most
energy while drying average size loads of lightweight to
medium weight items.
■ Use the Very Dry setting with the RESOURCE SAVER
temperature setting to save energy while drying larger loads
of medium weight to heavyweight items.
Temperature tips
■ Use a High heat setting for drying heavyweight items such as
towels and work clothes.
■ Use a Medium heat setting for drying medium weight items
such as sheets, underwear, permanent press fabrics, and
some knits.
■ Use a Low heat setting for drying lightweight items such as
lingerie, blouses, dresses, and some knits.
■ Use a no heat (air) setting for rubber, plastic or special care
fabrics.
■ Line dry bonded or laminated fabrics.
If you are unsure of the temperature to select for a load, select
the lower setting rather than the higher setting.
NOTE:
If you have questions about drying temperatures for
various loads, refer to the care label directions.
CYCLE DESCRIPTIONS
Your new RESOURCE SAVER™ dryer uses the Temperature
selector with the Cycle Control knob to design a drying cycle to
provide the shortest, most efficient drying time and best fabric
care for your load.
Cycle Control knob
ACCUDRY™ Automatic Drying Cycle
The automatic cycle uses the ACCUDRY™ electronic control
sensor that senses the moisture in your load and shuts off the
dryer when the selected dryness is reached. The Cycle Control
knob does not move until the load is almost dry. After the cool
down, the knob automatically turns to an Off area and tumbling
stops.
Your most frequently used Temperature settings, Normal and
High, when used with the automatic cycle, are enhanced with the
SENSEON™ drying system to provide the shortest drying time.
See “Temperature Settings.”
Dry most loads using the Energy Preferred Automatic Setting (
*
).
■ If the load is drier than you like, select a setting closer to
Less Dry the next time you dry a similar load.
■ If the load is not as dry as you like, complete drying using the
Timed Drying cycle. The next time you dry a similar load,
select a setting closer to Very Dry.
Towe ls
Use this setting to thoroughly dry extra heavy items, such as
mattress pads, quilts or towels. Set the Temperature selector at
High heat.
Delicates
Use this setting to dry small loads or lightweight items. Set the
Temperature selector at Low or Extra Low heat.
NOTE:
Drying time with an automatic cycle varies according to
the type of fabric, size of load, and temperature setting. See
“Drying, Cycle and Temperature Tips.”
