TIMED CYCLES
Use Timed Cycles to select a specific amount of drying time and
a drying temperature. (Temperatures are not selectable with Rack
Dry and Air Fluff). When a Timed 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
More Time or Less Time. See “Changing Cycles, Options and
Modifiers.”
Timed Dry
Use this cycle to complete drying if items are still damp after an
Auto Cycle. Timed Dry is also useful for drying heavyweight and
bulky items, such as bedspreads and work clothes. Lightweight
garments, such as exercise wear, can be dried using Timed Dry
on a low temperature setting.
EXPRESS DRY™
Use this cycle for drying small loads or loads that need a short
drying time.
Touch 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.
Air Fluff
Rotate the dial to Air Fluff to use this cycle for items that require
drying without heat such as rubber, plastic and heat-sensitive
fabrics. This table shows examples of items that can be dried
using Air Fluff. The temperature setting is not adjustable with this
cycle.
*Reset cycle 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.
Rack Dry
Rotate the dial to Rack Dry to use this cycle with the drying rack
to dry clothes or items with low heat without tumbling. See
“TUMBLE FREE™ Heated Dryer Rack.” The temperature setting
is not adjustable with this cycle.
*Use the Air Fluff cycle for items that require drying without heat
such as rubber, plastic and heat-sensitive fabrics.
