Using your heated cycle
Your heated cycle provides the special care
that cottons, permanent press and some
synthetic fabrics need. The cycle consists of a
timed period of heated drying and a brief cool-
down period. During the cool down, the load

tumbles without heat. This helps keep wrinkles
from setting in and makes the load easier to
handle.
NOTE: To help reduce wrinkling, remove the
load from the dryer as soon as tumbling stops.
This is important for permanent press, knits
and synthetic fabrics. Do not overdry.
Overdrying can cause shrinkage, static cling,
and damage some fabrics.
