another choice. Just turning the knob to another selection wilt not
change the cycle. The signal will beep and the status lights wilt

Auto Dry

Auto Dry cycles take the guesswork out of drying time. Loads dried

using the Towels, Heavy Duty, Normal, Perm Press, and Deticates
cycles will dry automatically at the selected temperature to the desired

dryness level. The dryer uses sensing bars to sense the moisture

level of the load as it tumbles through heated air. Auto Dry cycles

save time and energy and protect fabrics.

O Medium O Normal
O Low O Less Dry

O Air Fluff/ O Damp Dry

No Heat

O Shrink Guard
O Extended Tumble 0 Drying

0 Signal Volume 0 ExtendedTumble

Select Cancel

0 Cool Down

The estimated drying time will be displayed for about 5 minutes.
Then the outside of the display will light up in a circular track to

indicate the drying time is automatically being determined by the

sensors. When the load has reached the selected dryness level, it
will continue to tumble, unheated, during a Cool Down period. This

helps reduce wrinkling and makes items easier to handle during
unloading. The estimated Cool Down time will be displayed.

Drying time varies depending on size and dampness of toad and

fabric type. If the load is too small or almost dry, the sensing bars

may not detect enough moisture to continue the cycle and the cycle
may end after a few minutes. Select a Timed Dry setting to dry such

loads.

Room temperature and humidity, type of installation and electrical
voltage or gas pressure can also affect drying time.
