Cycle (on some models). See the “Cycle Guide” for detailed
information.
NOTE: Not all options and settings are available with all cycles.
Not all cycles are on all models.
Automatic Cycles:
You can select a different dryness level, depending on your
load. Touch DRYNESS LEVEL to scroll to More, Normal, or
Less. Selecting More, Normal, or Less automatically adjusts
the dryness level at which the dryer will shut off. Once a
dryness level is set, it cannot be changed without stopping
the cycle.
Automatic Cycles give the best drying in the shortest time.
Drying time varies based on fabric type, load size, and
dryness setting.
Manual Cycles:
When you select a Manual Cycle, the default
time appears in the display. Touch + and –
to increase or decrease the time in 1 minute
increments. Touch and hold to change the
time in 5 minute increments.
The default temperature may be changed by
pressing Temp until the desired dry temperature is lit.
Steam Cycles (on some models):
Select Steam Refresh to reduce odors and light wrinkles in
dry loads consisting of wrinkle-free cotton, cotton-polyester
blends, common knits, and synthetics. If you will be unable
to remove a load immediately, touch Wrinkle Shield to add up
to 140 minutes of periodic tumbling. You may select the “With
Steam” setting to add a short steam cycle after 60 minutes to
help smooth out wrinkles.

Select Wrinkle Shield, if desired
If you will be unable to remove the load promptly, select
Wrinkle Shield ™ option before pressing START/PAUSE.
Changing the Automatic Cycle settings
to increase or decrease drying time
If all your loads on all Automatic Cycles are consistently less
dry or more dry than you would like, you may change the
default settings to increase or decrease the default dryness
level.
Your automatic drying settings can be adjusted to adapt to
different installations, environmental conditions, or personal
preference. This change is retained and will affect all of your
Automatic Cycles, not just the current cycle/load. There are
5 drying settings, which are displayed using the time display:
F1 Factory preset dryness level.
F2 Slightly drier clothes, 15% more drying time.
F3 Much drier clothes, 30% more drying time.
F4 Slightly wetter clothes, 15% less drying time.
F5 Much wetter clothes, 30% less drying time.
To change the drying settings:
NOTE: The settings cannot be changed while the dryer
is running or paused. The dryer must be in standby mode
(power is off) to adjust the default settings.
1. Before starting a cycle, touch and hold DRYNESS
LEVEL for 6 seconds.
2. Touch DRYNESS LEVEL to select the dryness level
shown in the time display: F1, F2, F3, F4, or F5.
3. Touch START/PAUSE to save the new dryness level
setting.
Appearance may vary.
