Press DRUM LI G HT at any time to turn the drum light ON or OFF.
WRINKLE SHIELD™ Setting Option
The WRINKLE SHIELD™ setting helps keep wrinkles from forming
when you cannot unload the dryer promptly at the end of a cycle.
During this option, the dryer stops tumbling and then tumbles
again for a brief period.
■ Press the WRINKLE SHIELD™ setting to get up to
120 minutes of heat-free, periodic tumbling at the end
of a cycle.
■ Stop the WRINKLE SHIELD™ setting at any time by pressing
WRINKLE SHIELD™ setting or opening the dryer door.
■ For the Perm Press/Casual Cycle, the WRINKLE SHIELD™
setting is preset to ON. The other Automatic Cycles will retain
the WRINKLE SHIELD™ setting. For example, if you select the
WRINKLE SHIELD™ setting in the Normal cycle, the
WRINKLE SHIELD™ setting will be on the next time you
select the Normal cycle.
NOTE: If you do not select the WRINKLE SHIELD™ setting, the
dryer stops after cool down.
Damp Dry Signal Option
Select the Damp Dry Signal 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.
NOTE: The Damp Dry Signal is available only with the
Automatic Cycles.
Cycle Signal Option
The Cycle Signal produces an audible sound when the drying
cycle is finished. Promptly removing clothes at the end of the
cycle reduces wrinkling.
Press CYCLE SI
G NAL until the desired volume (Loud, Soft, or Off)
is selected.
NOTE: When the WRINKLE SHIELD™ setting is selected and the
Cycle Signal is on, a tone sounds every 5 minutes until the clothes
are removed, or the WRINKLE SHIELD™ setting ends.
