Using the TUMBLE PRESS* cycle
(on some models)
This cycle removes wrinkles from clothing that has
been packed in a suitcase or closet, and from items
not removed from the dryer at the end of a cycle.
1. Set the Cycle Control Knob on TUMBLE
PRESS. (If your model has a Temperature
Selector, set the Temperature Selector to a
high setting.)
2. Push the Start Button.
The last few minutes of this cycle are without
heat to help make the load easier to handle. Put
only a few items in your dryer for best results
when using this cycle. As soon as the dryer
stops, fold or put the items on hangers.
Using the Damp Dry cycle
(on some models)
Use this setting to dry damp items that do not
require an entire drying cycle, or to dry items to
damp level. Two examples are heavy cottons, such
as jeans, which you do not want to become stiff, or
cotton clothes which are easier to press when
damp.
1. Set the Cycle Control Knob on DAMP DRY (If
your model has a Temperature Selector, set
the Temperature Selector to a high setting.)
2. Push the Start Button.
The last few minutes of this cycle are without
heat to help make the load easier to handle.
Understanding the
FINISH GUARD* cycle
(on some models)
When you are unable to remove a load from the
dryer as soon as it stops, wrinkles can form.
When using your automatic cycle, the FINISH
GUARD cycle tumbles the load a few seconds
without heat every few minutes for up to 45
minutes. This tumbling rearranges and fluffs the
load to help avoid wrinkles that set in when the
load remains in the dryer.
You do not have to set the Cycle Control Knob
to the FINISH GUARD cycle. The FINISH
GUARD cycle takes over automatically to protect
the load if you do not open the door within a few
minutes after the automatic cycle ends.
A signal will sound every few minutes during
the FINISH GUARD cycle. The signal will stop
when the dryer door is opened. (If your model
has a FINISH GUARD cycle On/Off Selector, see
page 11.)
