DRYER OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The estimated drying time will be displayed for about
5 minutes. Then the outside of the display will
light up in a circular track to indicate the drying
time is automatically being determined by the
sensors. When the load has reached the selected
dryness level, it will continue to tumble, unheated,
during a Cool Down period. This helps reduce
wrinkling and makes items easier to handle during
unloading. The estimated Cool Down time will be
displayed.
Drying time varies depending on size and dampness
of load and fabric type. If the load is too small or
almost dry, the sensing bars may not detect enough
moisture to continue the cycle and the cycle may
end after a few minutes. Select a Timed Dry setting
to dry such loads.
Room temperature and humidity, type of installation
and electrical voltage or gas pressure can also affect
drying time.

Auto Dry
Auto Dry cycles take the guesswork out of drying
time. Loads dried using the Towels, Normal, Perm
Press and Delicate cycles will dry automatically
at the selected temperature to the desired dryness
level. The dryer uses sensing bars to sense the
moisture level of the load as it tumbles through
heated air. Auto Dry cycles save time and energy
and protects fabrics.
