Optional Features

Drum Light

Select Drum Light to turn on the light inside the dryer drum. During a cycle, if DRUM LIGHT 
is selected, the drum light turns on and will remain on until DRUM LIGHT is pressed again, 
the door is open and closed, or the door is left open for 20 minutes.

When the dryer is not running, the drum light will turn on when DRUM LIGHT is pressed or 
the dryer door is opened, and it will remain on until the dryer door has been open for 
20 minutes, the dryer door is closed or DRUM LIGHT is pressed again. 
Press DRUM LIGHT at any time to turn the drum light ON or OFF.

WRINKLE PREVENT Feature 

When you are unable to remove a load of clothes from the dryer as soon as it stops, wrinkles 
can form. The WRINKLE PREVENT feature periodically tumbles, rearranges and fluffs the load 
to help keep wrinkles from forming. 

„

Press the WRINKLE PREVENT feature to get up to 120 minutes of heat-free, 
periodic tumbling at the end of a cycle.

„

Stop at any time by pressing the WRINKLE PREVENT feature or opening the dryer door.

„

Other cycles will retain the WRINKLE PREVENT feature setting. (For example, if you 
select the WRINKLE PREVENT feature in the Normal cycle, the WRINKLE PREVENT 
feature will be on the next time you select the Normal cycle.)

NOTE:

 If you do not select the WRINKLE PREVENT feature, the dryer stops after the cool 

down period.

Damp Dry Signal

The Damp Dry Signal may be selected to alert you that your clothes are approximately 80% 
dry. This is useful when you want to remove lightweight items in a mixed load to avoid 
overdrying or remove partially dry items that may need ironing.
The Damp Dry Signal is useful when drying bedsheets/linens in a mixed load. When the 
signal goes off, open the door to stop the dryer, rearrange the load inside the dryer, close the 
door and restart the dryer to finish the drying cycle. Rearranging the load will aid in the drying 
process.

Press DAMP DRY SIGNAL to turn the alarm on or off. 

NOTE: 

The Damp Dry Signal works only with Sensor Cycles. It is not selectable for the 

Sanitize cycle. 

Signal On/Off 

When on, this feature produces an audible sound when the drying cycle is finished. Promptly 
removing clothes at the end of the cycle reduces wrinkling..

Press SIGNAL ON/OFF. The light on the control will glow yellow when the Cycle Signal is on.  

NOTE:

 When the WRINKLE PREVENT feature is selected and the End of Cycle Signal is on, an 

audible sound will be emitted every 5 minutes until the clothes are removed, or the WRINKLE 
PREVENT feature is finished.

Changing Cycles, Options and Modifiers

You can change Sensor Cycles, Timed Cycles, Modifiers and Options anytime before pressing 
START/PAUSE. 

NOTE:

 Three short tones sound if an unavailable combination is selected. The last selection 

will not be accepted.

Changing Cycles after pressing START/PAUSE

1.

Press START/PAUSE once. This pauses the current cycle.

2.

Select the desired cycle and options.

3.

Press and hold START/PAUSE. The dryer starts at the beginning of the new cycle.

NOTE:

 If you do not press START/PAUSE within 5 minutes of selecting the cycle, the dryer 

automatically shuts off.

Changing Modifiers and Options after pressing START/PAUSE

You can change a Modifier or Option anytime before the selected Modifier or Option begins.

1.

Press START/PAUSE once.

2.

Select the new Modifier and/or Option.

3.

Press and hold START/PAUSE to continue the cycle.

Changing the Preset Sensor Cycles Dryness Settings

If all your loads on all Sensor cycles are consistently not as dry as you would like, you may 
change the preset Sensor Cycles Dryness settings to increase the dryness. This change will 
affect all of your Sensor cycles.
Your Sensor Cycles Dryness settings can be adjusted to adapt to different installations, 
environmental conditions or personal preference. There are 3 drying settings: 1 (factory preset 
dryness level), 2 (slightly dryer clothes, approximately 15% more drying time) and 3 (much 
dryer clothes, approximately 30% more drying time). 

1.

The Sensor Cycles Dryness settings cannot be changed while the dryer is running.

2.

Press and hold the Sensor Cycles Dryness button for 5 seconds. The dryer will beep, and 
“CF” will be displayed on the Estimated Time Remaining screen for 1 second followed by 
the current drying setting.

3.

To select a new drying setting, press the Sensor Cycles Dryness key again until the desired 
drying setting is shown.

NOTE: 

While cycling through the settings, the current setting will not flash, but the other 

settings will flash.

4.

Press START/PAUSE to save the drying setting.

5.

The drying setting you selected will become your new preset drying setting for all Sensor cycles.
