Available Drying Settings
Dryness selections are based on the size of the load, the type
of fabric, and the desired moisture level of the fabric.
MAX DRY and MORE DRY will dry very small loads and some
heavy items, such as blue jeans, but will overdry lightweight
items, such as sheets and shirts. Overdrying can cause wrin-
kling, shrinking, excessive lint conditions, and will use more
energy than necessary.
LESS DRY, which uses the least energy, will dry large loads and
lightweight items, such as sheets and shirts, but might leave
other items, such as denim and heavy bath towels, more
damp.
To increase energy savings and to make sure loads are dried
without overdrying, set your loads on LESS DRY. If items are
damp at the end of a cycle, the timer knob needs to be set
closer to the MORE DRY setting the next time these loads are
dried. If items are overdry at the end of a cycle, the timer knob
should be set closer to COOL DOWN when these loads are
dried again. Remember the settings that work best to get ideal
drying results.
The COOL DOWN period at the end of each cycle provides
items a chance to tumble with no heat and cool down to room
temperature. This prevents wrinkles from setting if items can-
not be cared for immediately.
The EXTENDED TUMBLE setting continues to tumble items at
no heat after the cycle has completed. This prevents wrinkling
when garments cannot be removed from the dryer immediate-
ly. By pressing the EXTENDED TUMBLE button to ON, the AUTO-
MATIC REGULAR/DELICATE and AUTOMATIC PERM PRESS/
KNITS cycles will tumble an additional 40 minutes.
NOTE: The timer knob will not advance as quickly in
the AUTOMATIC cycles as it does in the TIMED DRY cy-
cle. The time it takes for the timer knob to advance de-
pends on the type and size of the load being dried.
The ENERGY SAVER settings, marked with an asterisk(*), show
which settings will use the least energy and will leave items
damp for easier ironing.
Cycle Selection
The following cycle descriptions will help determine which cy-
cle to choose depending on the type of laundry being dried.
NOTE: Use Timed Dry Cycles for No Heat tumble. Us-
ing Automatic cycles with No Heat will result in very
short cycle times. Automatic cycles are designed to
dry loads using heat to the dryness level selected.
Automatic Perm Press/Knits Cycle
Use for permanent press items and synthetics. The type of
heat is determined by selecting the proper Fabric Selector op-
tion. There are three settings in the AUTOMATIC PERM PRESS/
KNITS cycle: MORE DRY, LESS DRY and COOL DOWN.
Automatic Regular/Delicate Cycle
Use for sturdy items like play or work clothes and also for deli-
cate items. The type of heat is determined by choosing the
proper Fabric Selector option. There are four settings in the
AUTOMATIC REGULAR/DELICATE cycle - MAX DRY, MORE DRY,
LESS DRY, and COOL DOWN.
