USING THE RLM (REMOTE LAUNDRY MONITOR)
6The RLM monitors status of your dryer. You can plug the display unit into any power outlet in your home. The RLM Display Unit can be purchased separately for this dryer.
DUAL SENSOR TECHNOLOGY
7It makes it possible to sense even less than a 1 kg load size. So regardless of load weight, more accurate sensing is ensured.
What are Sensor Dry and Time Dry?
Your dryer provides sensor drying and time drying programs.
Sensor Dry : Dryer electronically sense laundry humidity and it automatically determines operation time based on the dryness of the load and the selected program. At times, you can see sudden increase or decrease in operation time. It happens because a sensor will detect laundry humidity within a certain period. Sudden change in operation time is not a malfunction.
Time Dry : You can manualy set drying time to complete drying. Use dry performance if clothes are still damp after sensor dry cycle is finished. Time Dry is more effective for heavyweight and bulky items such as king-size bed sheets and thick work clothes.
