Color Logic
Select the correct FABRIC CARE setting.
Match the particular color below the words
with the same color on the Cycle Dial.
Example: Drying a load of clothing labeled
permanent press.
Choose the FABRIC CARE setting-—for
this load it would be the EASY CARE

Turn the Cycle Dial to the area that has
the same color as the FABRIC CARE
setting you have chosen—for this load
it would be the EASY CARE AUTOMATIC.
