Additional Features
Temperature
Temperature settings are used with the Timed Dry Cycles. Press TEMPERATURE until the
desired temperature setting illuminates. Temperature settings cannot be used with the Sensor
Dry Cycles.
Air Fluff
Use the Air Fluff temperature 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 Fluff.
*Reset time to complete drying, if needed.
When using Air Fluff
■ 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: Air Fluff is not available with Sensor dry cycles.
WRINKLE PREVENT
WRINKLE PREVENT helps smooth out wrinkles that form when you cannot unload the dryer
promptly at the end of a cycle. During this option, the dryer periodically starts and stops,
tumbling the load for 90 minutes.
■ Press WRINKLE PREVENT to get up to 90 minutes of heat-free, periodic tumbling at the
end of a cycle.
■ Stop WRINKLE PREVENT at any time by pressing WRINKLE PREVENT or opening the
dryer door.
■ WRINKLE PREVENT is preset to OFF. The Sensor Dry cycles will retain the WRINKLE
PREVENT setting. For example, if you select WRINKLE PREVENT in the Normal cycle,
WRINKLE PREVENT will be on the next time you select the Normal cycle.
NOTE: WRINKLE PREVENT must be selected with a cycle in order to work. If you do not
select WRINKLE PREVENT, the dryer stops after cool down.
Cycle Signal
The Cycle Signal produces an audible sound when the drying cycle is finished. Promptly
removing clothes at the end of the cycle reduces wrinkling.
Press CYCLE SIGNAL to turn the signal off.
NOTE: When the WRINKLE PREVENT feature is selected and the Cycle Signal is on, an
audible sound will emit every 5 minutes until the clothes are removed, or the WRINKLE
PREVENT feature ends.
Changing Cycles, Options and Modifiers
You can change Sensor Dry Cycles, Timed Dry Cycles, Options, and Modifiers anytime before
pressing Start.
■ Three short tones sound if an unavailable combination is selected. The last selection will
not be accepted.
Changing Cycles after pressing Start
1. Press PAUSE/CANCEL twice. This ends the current cycle.
2. Select the desired cycle and options.
3. Press and hold START. The dryer starts at the beginning of the new cycle.
NOTE: If you do not press Start within 5 minutes of selecting the cycle, the dryer
automatically shuts off.
