MANUAL CYCLES
Use Manual Cycles to select a specific amount of drying time and
a drying temperature. When a Manual Cycle is selected, the
ESTIMATED TIME REMAINING display shows the actual time
remaining in your cycle. You can change the actual time in the
cycle by pressing the Manual Dry Time (- or +) buttons.
Timed Dry
Use this cycle to complete drying if items are still damp after an
Automatic Cycle. Timed Dry is also useful for drying heavyweight
and bulky items, such as bedspreads and work clothes.
Touchup
Use this setting to help smooth out wrinkles from such items as
clothes packed in a suitcase or items wrinkled from being left in
the dryer too long.
Rapid Dry
Use this cycle for drying small loads or loads that need a short
drying time.

Additional Features
Extra Care Feature
When you are unable to remove a load of clothes from the dryer
as soon as it stops, wrinkles can form. The Extra Care feature
periodically tumbles, rearranges and fluffs the load to help reduce
wrinkling.
■ Press the Extra Care feature to get up to 120 minutes of heat-
free, periodic tumbling at the end of a cycle.
■ Stop at any time by pressing the Extra Care feature or
opening the dryer door.
■ For the Casual Cycle, the Extra Care feature is preset to “On.”
The other Automatic Cycles will retain the Extra Care feature
setting. (For example, if you select the Extra Care feature in
the Normal cycle, the Extra Care feature will be on the next
time you select the Normal cycle.)
NOTE: If you do not select the Extra Care feature, the dryer stops
after the cool down period.
Temperature
Temperature settings are used with the Manual Cycles. Press
TEMP until the desired temperature setting illuminates.
Temperature settings cannot be used with the Automatic Cycles.
Air Only
Use the Air Only setting for items that require drying without heat
such as rubber, plastic and heat-sensitive fabrics. This chart
shows examples of items that can be dried using Air Only.
*Reset time to complete drying, if needed.
When using Air Only
■ Check that coverings are securely stitched.
■ Shake and fluff pillows by hand periodically during the cycle.
■ Dry item completely. Foam rubber pillows are slow to dry.
NOTE: Automatic Cycles are not available when using the Air
Only setting.
