eMonitor
(on some models)
The eMonitor lights display the relative
energy use of your selected cycle and options.
They are provided as an energy guide and
range from Good (1 light) to Better (5 lights).
Cycle (time), dryness level, temperature, and
additional tumble options can increase or
decrease your energy efficiency. Some cycles
will not provide a display.

Clean Filter Message
This message represents only a reminder and
does not always appear when the filter needs
cleaning. The filter should be cleaned after every
drying cycle is complete.
This message will disappear after the Start/
Pause button is pressed. Even though you may
have already cleaned the filter (before or after
the Power button has been pressed), the “ Clean
Filter ” message will still be displayed until the
Start/Pause button is activated.
19
Display
Displays the approximate time remaining until
the end of the cycle.
As the cycle begins, you will see an initial
approximate total cycle time in the display.
Then lights will “race” in the display. This
means the dryer is continuously monitoring
the amount of moisture in the load. The lights
will continue until the dryer senses a low level
of moisture in the load. At that point, the dryer
will calculate and display the approximate
time remaining.
