Cycles
Select the drying cycle that matches the type of load you are drying. See the Sensor Dry
Cycles Preset Settings chart or the Timed Dry Cycles Preset Settings chart.
Sensor Dry Cycles
Sensor Dry Cycles allow you to match the cycle to the load you are drying. See the following
Sensor Dry Cycles Preset 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.
Cotton/Towels or Heavy Duty
Use this cycle to get high heat for heavy fabrics such as cotton towels or bedspreads.
Jeans
Use this cycle to get regular heat for drying denims.
Normal
Use this cycle to get medium heat for drying sturdy fabrics such as sturdy work clothes and
sheets.
Wrinkle Control
Use this cycle to get low heat for drying no-iron fabrics such as sport shirts, casual business
clothes and permanent press blends.
Delicate
Use this cycle to get extra-low heat for drying synthetic fabrics, washable knit fabrics and no-
iron finishes.
*Estimated time with dryness level (normal) setting. Time will vary depending on load type
and load size.
Timed Dry Cycles
Use Timed Dry Cycles to select a specific amount of drying time and a drying temperature.
When a Timed Dry 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
Timed Dry Cycle Adjust Up or Down arrow buttons. See “Changing Cycles, Options and
Modifiers.”
Timed Dry
Use this cycle to complete drying if items are still damp after an Sensor Dry Cycle. Timed Dry
is also useful for drying heavyweight and bulky items such as bedspreads and work clothes.
Rapid Dry
Use this cycle for drying small loads or loads that need a short drying time.
Freshen Up
Use this cycle to help smooth out wrinkles from items such as clothes packed in a suitcase or
items wrinkled from being left in the dryer too long.
