Settings

Individual settings for cycle minutes (

Time

), dryness level (

Level

) and temperature (

Temp

) can be set from the minimum 

(lowest in column) to maximum (highest in column). In general, the higher up the column, the more energy will be used. 

NOTE:

 The selected cycle set 

Time

 can be further adjusted, in one minute increments, by pressing the 

Time

 (plus) 

and 

-

 (minus) buttons.

Dryness Level

-

Selection only used for 

Sensor cycles. Timed cycles run for the selected time.

 More 

Dry 

Use for heavy-duty or mixed type fabrics.

 

 Dry 

Use for a normal dryness level suitable for most loads. This is the preferred cycle for energy savings.

 

Less Dry

   Use for lighter fabrics.

 Damp 

For leaving items partially damp.

Temperature

 High 

For regular to heavy cottons. 

 

 

NOTE: Steam Dewrinkle 

and 

Steam Refresh

 require the High temperature setting.

 

 Medium 

For synthetics, blends, delicates and items labeled permanent press.

 

Low

   For delicates, synthetics and items labeled 

tumble dry

 low. 

 No 

Heat 

For fluffing items without heat. For use only with the 

Air Fluff 

cycle.

Extended Tumble

Use this option to minimize the wrinkles in clothes. It provides 1 hour of no-heat tumbling after the clothes are dry. If you are 

using the cycle 

Signal Adjust

 and you select the 

Extended Tumble

 option, a signal will sound at the end of the drying time and 

several times during the 

Extended Tumble

 cycle. This will remind you that it is time to remove the clothes.

Damp Alert

This option causes the dryer to beep when clothes have dried to a damp level. Remove items that you wish to hang dry. The 

Damp Alert

 will only beep when this option is selected (but the dry cycle will keep running). Removing clothes and hanging them 

when they are damp, can reduce the need to iron some items. The light beside the button will be lit when 

Damp Alert

 is on.

Drum Light

The drum light will turn on if the 

Damp Alert

 button is pressed for 3 seconds or the door is opened. It will turn off when 

the door is shut, the 

Damp Alert

 button is pressed again for 3 seconds or after 5 minutes if the door is left open.

Delay Dry

Press the 

Delay Dry

 button to set the delay start time in 1 hour increments up to 24 hours, and then back to clear (0 hours). 

After selecting the delay start time, press 

Start

 and the delay time will count down the time remaining until the cycle starts. 

NOTE:

 To set the amout of delay time faster, you can press and hold the 

Delay Dry

 button.

Signal Adjust

Use the 

Signal Adjust 

button to change the volume of the button presses and the end of cycle signal. Press the button until you 

reach the desired volume or off. The clothes should be removed when the end of cycle signal goes off so wrinkles do not set in.

NOTE:

• Remove garments promptly at the sound of signal. Place clothes on hangers so wrinkles will not set in.

• Use the 

Signal Adjust

 especially when drying fabrics like polyester, knits and permanent press. These fabrics should be 

removed so wrinkles will not set in.

My Cycle

As the cycle selector knob is turned, the 

Time

 

(timed dry), 

Level 

(dryness level) and 

Temp

 

(temperature)

 settings change 

to automatic pre-set default settings. If you desire a different setting, press the appropriate button(s). Then press and hold the 

My Cycle

 button for 3 seconds and the dryer will “remember” these settings for that Knob Selection. In the future, when you turn 

the selector knob to that cycle, your settings will be automatically recalled. 

NOTE:

 Signal volume cannot be set for 

My Cycle
