NOTE: This Use and Care Guide covers several different models. Your dryer may not have all of the cycles and features described.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric slnock, or injury to persons, read the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
before operating this appliance. The following is a guide to using your dryer.
Please refer to specific sections of this manuaifor more detailed information.
power • ar'_xq
Non-Steam Model
Select the correct cycle and dryness [eve[ or temperature for your
load. If a Sensor Cycle is running, the display shows the estimated
cycle time when your dryer is automatically sensing the dryness
[eve[ of your load. If a Timed Cycle is running, the display shows the
exact number of minutes remaining in the cycle.
Coo[ Down tumbles the load without heat during the last few
minutes of all cycles. Coo[ Down makes the loads easier to handle
and reduces wrinkling. The length of the Coo[ Down depends on the
load size and dryness [eve[.
Drying tips
• Follow care label directions when they are available.
If desired, add a fabric softener sheet. Follow package
instructions.
Remove the load from the dryer as soon as tumbling stops to
reduce wrinkling. This is especially important for permanent
press, knits, and synthetic fabrics.
Avoid drying heavy work clothes with lighter fabrics. This could
cause overdrying of lighter fabrics, leading to increased
shrinking or wrinkling.
If you dry sheets in a mixed load or large items, rearrange the
load when the signal sounds. This will aid in the drying process.
Cycle tips
• Dry most loads using the preset cycle settings.
• Refer to the Sensor or Timed Preset Cycle Settings chart (in the
"Cycles" section) for a guide to drying various loads.
• I)rying temperature and Sensor Cycles I)ryness are preset to
Normal when you choose a Sensor Cycle and will dry most
loads adequately using the most efficient amount of energy.
You can choose a different dryness level, depending on your
load by pressing the SENSOR CYCI_ES DRYNESS button to
select More Dry, Normal, or I.ess Dry.
• If you wish to adjust the cycle length of a Timed Cycle, you
must press the TIME ADJUST up or down buttons. Adjust the
temperature of a Timed Cycle by pressing, TIMED CYCI.ES
TEMP until the desired temperature is selected.
NOTE: You cannot choose a Sensor Cycles Dryness with
Timed, Steam, or Sanitize Cycles. Some cycles are not
available on all models.

Sensor Cycles
Sensor Cycles allow you to match the cycle to the load you are
drying. See the following Sensor Cycle Settings chart. Each cycle
dries certain fabrics at the recommended temperature. A sensor
detects the moisture in the load and automatically adjusts the drying
time for optimal drying.
Sanitize (on some models)
Use this cycle for items such as towels, bedding, children's clothing,
or other items needing to be sanitized. This cycle is designed to
eliminate 99.9% of 3 common infectious bacteria. This cycle should
be run to completion to ensure sanitization. For best results, do not
interrupt cycle.
