DRYER CYCLE DESCRIPTIONS
This information covers several different models. Your dryer may vary from the model shown and may not have all the cycles and features described.
Cycle Selector (Timer) Control
AUTOMATIC CYCLES
Automatic Cycles may be used for most loads. These cycles give the best drying in the shortest time. Drying time varies according to the type of fabric, size of the load, and dryness setting.
Auto Dry, Auto Dry I, Permanent Press/Normal, or Knit/Delicate
Dryness is determined by the exhaust temperature of the dryer. When the dryness selected is reached, the dryer goes into a cool down period of up to 10 minutes.
Auto Moisture Sensing
Dryness is determined by an electronic sensor which “feels” the amount of moisture in clothes as they pass over it. When the dryness selected is reached, the dryer goes into a cool down period of up to 10 minutes.
Automatic Drying Cycles
The Cycle Selector (Timer) Control may be set to NORMAL DRY (*), which is good for most fabrics. At the end of the cycle, you may check the dryness of the load.
■If the load is drier than you like, you may select a setting closer to Less Dry the next time you dry a similar load.
■If a load is not as dry as you like, you may complete drying using a Timed cycle. You may select a setting closer to More Dry the next time you dry a similar load.
TIMED DRY
This cycle may be used to get up to 70 to 90 minutes (depending on the model) of heated drying time. The heating cycle is followed by a cool down period of up to 10 minutes.
TOUCH UP
This cycle may be used to smooth synthetic and permanent press clothes that are clean but wrinkled from being crowded in a closet or suitcase. This setting provides about 15 minutes of heated tumbling followed by a cool down period of up to
10 minutes.
AIR DRY
You may use the Air Dry cycle to get up to 20 to 30 minutes (depending on the model) of drying time in room temperature air. This setting should be used for items such as plastics, rubber and heat-sensitive fabrics.
WRINKLE GUARD® I
WRINKLE GUARD® I helps prevent wrinkles that can form when clothes are not removed promptly at the end of a cycle. WRINKLE GUARD® I tumbles the load without heat for
30 minutes unless you open the dryer door.
During WRINKLE GUARD® I the End of Cycle Signal will sound every 5 minutes, unless the signal is turned off.

Fabric/Temperature Control
For models with a Fabric/Temperature Control knob, you may use this control to select the drying temperature that matches the fabrics in your load. The following table lists suggested Auto Moisture or Timed Dry settings for various loads. This is only a guide.

End of Cycle Signal Control
The End of Cycle Signal sounds when a cycle is complete. This signal is helpful when you are drying permanent press, synthetics and other items that should be removed from the dryer promptly at the end of a cycle.
Depending on your model, the End of Cycle Signal may be automatic or selectable. Some models have a volume control.
If your model has a selectable End of Cycle Signal, and the signal is turned off, you will not hear WRINKLE GUARD® I sound every 5 minutes.
Dryer Rack
(Optional on some models)
A dryer rack may be used to machine dry items you would not necessarily want to tumble dry or that you would normally line dry (for example, sweaters).
For ordering information, please refer to the service numbers located on the back page of the dryer user instructions or contact the dealer from whom you purchased your dryer.
