Not all features and cycles are available on all models.

POWER

Touch to turn the dryer on and off. Touch to stop/cancel  

a cycle at any time.  

CYCLE CONTROL KNOB

Use your dryer’s cycle control knob to select available cycles 

on your dryer. Turn the knob to select a cycle for your laundry 

load. See “Cycle Guide” for detailed descriptions of cycles.

START/PAUSE

Touch and hold until the LED comes on to start a cycle 

or touch once while a cycle is in process to pause it.

TIMED DRY ADJUST 

Use “

+”

 and “

–”

 with Timed Cycles to increase or  

decrease the length of a Timed Dry or Rapid Dry cycle.

LED DISPLAY

When you select a cycle, its default settings will light up and 

the Estimated Time Remaining (for Sensor Cycles) or actual 

time remaining (for Timed Cycles) will be displayed.

SETTINGS

Touch the setting names next to the display to adjust settings. 

See “Cycle Guide” for available settings on each cycle. Not all 

settings are available with all cycles.

Temperature

Timed Cycles:

 When using Timed Cycles, you may select 

a dry temperature based on the type of load you are drying. 

Use the warmest setting safe for the garments in the load. 

Follow garment label instructions.

Sensor Cycles: 

Sensor Cycles allow temperature 

adjustment. At most, 4 of available temperatures (not 

including Air Only) are allowed.

Dry Level

You may adjust the Dry Level on Sensor Cycles only 

(except for the Sanitize and Steam Refresh cycles), if 

desired.

Wrinkle Prevent

If you will be unable to remove a load immediately, touch

Wrinkle Prevent to add up to 150 minutes of periodic

tumbling to help reduce wrinkling. On some cycles, you

may select the “With Steam” setting to add a short steam

cycle after 60 minutes to help smooth out wrinkles.

NOTE:

 

If the Wrinkle Prevent option is selected, it is active 

even if the done indicator is lit. If you open the dryer door 

prior to the end of the Wrinkle Prevent option, the dryer 

will go into Pause mode. You will need to touch Power 

to turn off or touch Start/Pause to continue the Wrinkle 

Prevent option. If the Wrinkle Prevent option is paused, it 

will discontinue after 5 minutes of inactivity and turn off.

Audio Level

Touch AUDIO LEVEL to move the volume of the end 

signal and button sounds between 5 different settings, 

including OFF.

OPTIONS 

Use to select available options for your dryer.

My Cycle

If you have a favorite cycle with custom settings that you 

use frequently, you can use the My Cycle feature to keep 

your preferred settings ready to use. To save the cycle, 

press and hold MY CYCLE (approximately 3 seconds) 

until a beep sounds and My Cycle LED is lit. Once a 

configuration has been saved, you may power on the 

machine and briefly press MY CYCLE to load your saved 

cycle and settings.

Energy Saver

Activate the ENERGY SAVER setting to increase your 

energy savings. This setting uses a lower heat level and 

extends cycle time. Turn on for optimal energy savings. 

Turn off for optimal cycle times. ENERGY SAVER is  

only available for the Normal cycle and will default on.

NOTE:

 Energy savings may vary across loads.

Static Reduce

Touch to add the Static Reduce option to selected Sensor 

cycles (see “Cycle Guide”). The dryer will automatically 

tumble, pause, and introduce a small amount of moisture 

into the load to help reduce static. This option will repeat 

and adds approximately 8 minutes to the total cycle time.

Steam Boost

Steam Boost adds steam to the end of the cycle to help 

smooth wrinkles. See “Cycle Guide.”

NOTE:

 The control panel features a sensitive surface that responds to a light touch of your finger. To ensure your selections are registered, 

touch the control panel with your finger tip, not your fingernail. When selecting a setting or option, simply touch its name.
