TEMPERATURE/FABRIC

Select a drying temperature based on the fabrics in your load.  

If you are unsure of the temperature to select for a load, select 

the lower setting rather than the higher setting.

CYCLE KNOB

Use Cycle 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.

TIMED DRY

 

Will run the dryer for the specified time on the control.  

On models with a selectable temperature knob, you may 

choose a setting based on the fabrics in your load. On  

some models, temperature is included in the cycle 

selections. Drying time and temperature will depend on  

your dryer model.

SENSOR DRY/AUTOMATIC DRY

 

Senses moisture in the load or air temperature and shuts 

off when the load reaches the selected dryness level.  

Gives the best drying in the shortest time. Drying time 

will vary based on fabric type, load size, and temperature 

setting.

WRINKLE CONTROL Feature (on some models)

 

The WRINKLE CONTROL feature will run after your drying 

cycle is complete. It periodically starts and stops the dryer, 

tumbling the load without heat to help avoid wrinkling.
On some models, WRINKLE CONTROL automatically 

starts at the end of the cycle. Opening the door will stop 

this feature.
NOTE: A signal will sound periodically when the WRINKLE 

CONTROL setting is selected, but only if the End of Cycle 

signal is also selected.

WRINKLE CONTROL option (on some models)

When you are unable to remove a load of clothes from the 

dryer as soon as it stops, wrinkles can form. The WRINKLE 

CONTROL option periodically tumbles, rearranges, and fluffs 

the load to help keep wrinkles from forming.

Get up to 90 minutes of heat-free, periodic tumbling at

the end of a cycle. Turn the WRINKLE CONTROL knob

to select OFF or 90 min. at any time before the cycle has

ended.

PUSH TO START/END OF CYCLE SIGNAL

The End of Cycle Signal produces an audible sound when the 

drying cycle is finished. Promptly removing clothes at the end 

of the cycle reduces wrinkling.
Turn the END OF CYCLE SIGNAL knob to select the desired 

setting (On or Off). Press the PUSH TO START knob to start 

the dryer.

Not all features and options are available on all models. 

Appearance may vary.
