Available Drying Cycles

NOTE: Use the automatic cycles for drying
items that can be dried with heat. These cycles
automatically dry loads to the dryness level
selected.

MORE DRY will dry very small loads and some
heavy items, such as blue jeans, but will overdry
lightweight items, such as sheets and shirts.
Overdrying can cause wrinkling, shrinking,
excessive lint conditions, and will use more energy
than necessary.

LESS DRY, which uses the least energy, will dry
large loads and lightweight items, such as sheets
and shirts, but might leave other items, such as
denim and heavy bath towels, more damp.

To increase energy savings and to make sure loads
are dried without overdrying, set your loads on
LESS DRY. If items are damp at the end of a cycle,
the timer knob needs to be set closer to the MORE
DRY setting the next time these loads are dried. If
items are overdry at the end of a cycle, the timer
knob should be set closer to COOL DOWN when
these loads are dried again. Remember the settings
that work best to get ideal drying results.

The COOL DOWN period at the end of each cycle
provides items a chance to tumble with no heat and
cool down to room temperature. This prevents
wrinkles from .setting if items cannot be cared for
immediately.

The ENERGY SAVERIDAMP DRY settings,
marked with a dot (•), show which settings will use
the least energy and will leave items damp for
easier ironing,

NOTE: The timer knob will not advance as
quickly in the AUTOMATIC cycles as it does in
the TIME DRY cycle. The time it takes for the
timer to advance depends on the type and size of
the load being dried.
