You may adjust different settings, depending on whether you
have selected a Sensor Cycle, Timed Cycle, or Steam Cycle.

Sensor Cycles:
You can select a different dryness level, depending on your
load, by pressing the button for More, Normal, or Less.
Selecting More, Normal, or Less automatically adjusts the
dryness level at which the dryer will shut off. Once a dryness
level is set, it cannot be changed without stopping the cycle.
Sensor cycles give the best drying in the shortest time.
Drying time varies based on fabric type, load size, and
dryness setting.
Timed Cycles:
When you select a Timed Cycle, the default time is displayed.
Use the LCD control buttons to increase or decrease the time
in 1 minute increments. Press and hold to change the time in 5
minute increments.
The default temperature may be changed by using the
LCD control buttons to select the desired dry temperature.

Select the desired cycle
Select the desired cycle for your load. See the “Cycle Guide”
or the display for more information about each cycle.
If selecting Timed Dry, use the LCD control buttons to adjust
the length of the cycle.
Changing the Sensor Cycle settings
to increase drying time
If all your loads on all Sensor Cycles are consistently not
as dry as you would like or are too dry, you may change the
default settings to increase the default dryness level.
Your automatic drying settings can be adjusted to adapt to
different installations, environmental conditions, or personal
preference. This change is saved in memory and will affect
all of your Sensor cycles, not just the current cycle/load.

LCD control button for Dryness Level for 6 seconds.
The LCD will briefly display the regular Dryness
Level options, then change to show the default
setting options.

using the LCD control buttons.
