Cycle Guide – Normal Cycle
If settings are changed, the new settings will be remembered. If there is a power failure, settings will return to the
default. Not all features and cycles are available on all models. Not all settings and options are available on each
cycle.
Use Sensor Cycle for better fabric care and energy savings.
The dryer senses moisture in the load or air temperature and shuts off when the load reaches the selected dryness
level. Temperatures shown in bold are the default settings for that cycle.
Items to Dry: Cycle: Temperature: Description:
Work clothes,
casual wear, mixed
cottons, sheets,
corduroys
Normal Medium High Uses Medium High heat to dry large loads of mixed
fabrics and items. Use Normal cycle to increase
energy saving versus Regular cycle by using a slightly
lower heat level.
On steam models, you may select the “+ Steam” setting to add a short steam cycle after 60 minutes. This is
available only with High and Medium drying temperature settings.
NOTE: Government energy certifications for this model were based on the Normal cycle, Highest temperature
setting, Normal dryness level. The as-shipped defaults were the same as the government energy certification
settings except the default temperature setting of Medium High was adjusted to the Highest temperature setting.

panel with your finger tip, not your fingernail. When selecting a setting or option, simply touch its name.
Temp
When using any cycle except Sanitize, 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.
Dryness
When using Sensor Cycles (except for the Sanitize cycle), you may select a Dryness
Level based on the type of load you are drying.
NOTE: Dryness Level is for use with Sensor Cycles only.
5. OPTIONS
Use to select available options for your dryer. Not all cycles and options are
available on all models.
Wrinkle Prevent
If you will be unable to remove a load immediately, touch Wrinkle Prevent to add up
to 150 minutes of periodic tumbling to help reduce wrinkling. On steam models, on
some cycles, you may select the “+Steam” setting to add a short steam cycle after
60 minutes to help smooth out wrinkles.
Steam
Steam adds steam to the end of certain Sensor Cycles to help smooth wrinkles. It is
not available on Sanitize, Delicates, Steam Refresh, or Timed Cycles (Timed Dry,
Quick Dry). Steam can be used with High, Medium High, or Medium heat settings.
This option adds approximately 15 minutes to the total cycle time.
Cycle Signal
Use this to turn the signal indicating the end of a drying cycle on or off. Touch and
hold Reduce Static for 3 seconds to turn sounds on or off.
Control Lock
Use to lock the controls of the dryer and avoid an accidental change in cycle options
or preferences during a drying cycle. Touch and hold Steam for 3 seconds to lock or
unlock the controls of the dryer. During this time, the LED display will count down “3-
2-1.” Once the controls are locked, the Control Lock icon will illuminate.
NOTE: The Control Lock function may be enabled when recovering from a power
failure. To unlock the control, touch and hold Steam for at least 3 seconds.
Reduce Static
Touch to add this option to selected Automatic/Sensor Cycles. The dryer will
automatically tumble, pause, and introduce a small amount of moisture into
the load to help reduce static. This option adds approximately 3 minutes to the
total cycle time.
Extra Power
The Extra Power option can be used with both Sensor and Timed Dry Cycles.
Press the Cycle Control knob to activate the Extra Power option, which
provides an additional 10 minutes of cycle time (including additional heat and
tumbling, where applicable). When Extra Power is activated, the Cycle Control
knob will illuminate and the estimated time remaining on the display will show
an additional 10 minutes.
6. CONNECTIVITY
Use to select available connectivity options for your dryer. Not all cycles and
options are available on all models. Download the Maytag ™ app and follow
the instructions to connect your dryer to your home Wi-Fi network. You may

7. CYCLE STATUS AND CONNECTED STATUS
The Cycle Status indicators show the progress of a cycle. The Connected
Status indicators show the connected status. Not all indicators are available
on all models.
Sensing
The Sensing indicator will light during Sensor Cycles to indicate that the
moisture sensor on the dryer is operating. This indicator will not light during
Timed Cycles or options such as Wrinkle Prevent.
Wet
The load is still wet and/or the cycle just started.
Damp
The load still has moisture remaining, a good point in the cycle to remove a
garment or air dry or iron.
Cool Down
The dryer has finished drying with heat and is now tumbling the load without
heat to cool it down and reduce wrinkling.
Check Vent
This indicator will show the status of airflow through the dryer and the dryer
vent system for the dryer’s life. This feature is available during Sensor and
Steam Cycles only. During the sensing phase at the beginning of the cycle,
the Check Vent light will come on if a blocked vent or low airflow issue is
detected. This light will stay on for the entire cycle.
The light will be cleared upon completion of the cycle, touching Power, or
opening the door. It will continue to illuminate during the cycle unless the root
cause is resolved.
NOTE: The dryer will continue to operate even while the indicator is lit, but
poor airflow can impact dry times and overall performance. If there are other
error issues during a cycle, the Check Vent indicator will not light up. Refer to
the online “Troubleshooting” section.
End
This will indicate that the selected cycle has ended and the load may be
removed from the dryer. If Wrinkle Prevent has been selected, the dryer may
continue to tumble the load, even if “End” is displayed.
Control Lock
This will illuminate once the controls are locked.
NOTE: The Control Lock function may be enabled when recovering from a
power failure. To unlock the control, touch and hold Steam for at least 3
seconds.
Connected
This will illuminate when the dryer is connected to the internet.
Smart Delay
This will illuminate when a Smart Delay is in effect: the operation of the
dryer has been delayed to a time when lower utility rates are in effect.
