LED DISPLAY AND SETTINGS
When you select a cycle, its default settings will light up
and the Estimated Time Remaining (for Automatic Cycles)
or actual time remaining (for Manual Cycles) will be
displayed. For times longer than 99 minutes, hours
will be displayed followed by minutes.
Automatic Cycles are Heavy Duty, Normal, Bulky, Casual
(on some models), Delicates, and Sanitize (on some
models). Manual Cycles are Quick Dry and Timed Dry. The
Steam Cycle (on some models) is Steam Refresh. Touch
along the bottom of the display to adjust settings. Touch
“+” or “–” with Manual Cycles to increase or decrease
the length of a Timed Dry or Quick Dry cycle. See “Cycle
Guide” for available settings on each cycle. Not all settings
are available with all cycles.
Cycle Status Lights
The indicators at the top of the display will let you
know what stage of the drying cycle is in process.
For more information on each stage, see “Cycle Status
Indicators.”
Temp
When using Manual Cycles, you may select a dry
temperature based on the type of load you are drying.
Use the warmest setting safe for the garments in the
load. Follow garment label instructions.
NOTE: Automatic Cycles use a preset temperature that
is not adjustable.
Dryness Level
You may adjust the Dryness Level on Automatic Cycles
(except for the Sanitize cycle), if desired.
NOTE: Dryness Level is for use with Automatic Cycles
only.
Damp Dry Signal (on some models)
Touch to select the Damp Dry Signal. When selected, a
series of beeps will sound when the load is damp, but
not completely dry. This will allow you to take clothes
out of the load that do not need to dry completely.
This option is available on Heavy Duty, Normal, Bulky,
Casual, and Delicates cycles. The Damp Dry Signal is
selected as a default for the Bulky cycle, as a reminder
to manually reposition bulky loads midway through the
cycle.
Wrinkle Shield ™ Option
If you will be unable to remove a load immediately,
touch Wrinkle Shield to add up to 140 minutes of
periodic tumbling to help reduce wrinkling. You may
select the “With Steam” setting (on some models)
to add a short steam cycle after 60 minutes to help
smooth out wrinkles.
