About your dryer features.

End of Cycle Signal

This signal will sound just before the end of the cycle to remind you to remove the clothes.
If you selected the

WRINKLE CARE

option the signal will sound at the end of the drying time and will sound several times during the
WRINKLE CARE
cycle. This will remind you that
it is time to remove the clothes.
NOTE:
Remove garments promptly at the sound of the signal. Place clothes on hangers so wrinkles won’t set in.
Use the END OF CYCLE SIGNAL especially when drying fabrics like polyester knits and permanent press. These fabrics should be removed so wrinkles won’t set in.

Drum Lamp

Before replacing the light bulb, be sure to unplug the dryer power cord or disconnect the dryer at the household distribution panel by removing the fuse or switching off the circuit breaker. Reach above dryer
opening from inside
the drum. Remove the
bulb and replace with the
same size bulb.

Drying Rack

A handy drying rack may be used for drying articles such as stuffed toys, pillows or washable sweaters.
Hook the rack over the lint filter so the rack extends into the dryer drum.
NOTE:
The drying rack must be used with the
TIMED CYCLE.
Do not use this drying rack when there are
other clothes in the dryer.
Wrinkle Care
Use this option to minimize the wrinkles in clothes. It provides approximately 15 minutes of no-heat tumbling after the clothes are dry.
This option can only be used with the Automatic cycles.If you are using the
CYCLE
SIGNAL
and you select the
WRINKLE CARE
option,
a signal will sound at the end of the drying time
and several times during the
WRINKLE CARE
cycle. This will remind you that it is time to remove the clothes.
If
WRINKLE CARE
is not
ON,
the dryer will stop
once the timer reaches the
WRINKLE CARE
mark
on the cycle dial.

SensorDry

This feature is only activated in the automatic cycles.
SensorDry
provides greater drying accuracy than standard machines, resulting in shorter dry times and better clothes care. As the clothes tumble, they touch a moisture sensor. The sensor will stop the heating cycle as soon as the clothes have reached the selected dryness.
On some models, there is a
Dryness Sensor
Cycle
indicator light. This light is illuminated
during automatic cycles. When the
SensorDry
feature stops the heating cycle, the light will go out and the cool down period will begin.
Note:
The clothes will be hot if they are removed immediately after the indicator light goes out.
