Auto Dry

Auto Dry cycles take the guesswork out of drying time.

Loads dried using the Towels, Heavy Duty, Normal, Perm
Press, and Delicates 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 ittumbles through heated air. Auto
Dry cycles save time and energy and protect fabrics.

Start/Pause

The estimated drying time will be displayed for about
5 minutes. Then the outside of the displaywill 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
load 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 orgas pressure can also affect drying

time.
