Operating Instructions
Options, continued
WRINKLE RELEASE
The
wrinkle release
option helps prevent wrinkles
and tangling by alternately tumbling the load with-
out heat for 5 minutes in a clockwise direction, then
5 minutes in a counterclockwise direction, for a total
of 45 minutes. A signal will sound every 5 minutes
to remind you to remove the dry load at any time.
The
extended tumble
option can be selected with
wrinkle release
to increase the amount of time the
load will tumble without heat. Use this combination
if you know it could be up to 3 hours before you
can remove the load.
EXTENDED TUMBLE
Select the
extended tumble
option if the dried
load might not be removed promptly at the end of
the cycle. The dry load will tumble without heat in
a clockwise direction only for the selected time to
help reduce wrinkling. Press the
extended tumble
button to select 10 or 30 minutes or 1, 2 or 3 hours
tumbling. A signal will sound periodically to remind
you to remove the dry load at any time.
The
wrinkle release
option can be selected with
extended tumble
option to increase the amount
of time the load will tumble without heat. Use this
combination if you know it could be up to 3 hours
before you can remove the load.
ECO FRIENDLY
The
eco friendly
option reduces the drying tem-
perature a few degrees to save energy. In conjunc-
tion with automatic moisture sensors, cycle times
will increase slightly, but overall energy usage will
decrease.
PERFECT TUMBLE
The
perfect tumble
option uses reverse tumble
action during
cool down
to reduce tangling and
wrinkling.
ADD STEAM
The
add steam
option injects steam into the cloth-
ing prior to cool down to reduce wrinkling, ironing
and static cling.
NOTE
It is not recommended to use fabric softener
sheets with Steam Cycles or Options as it may
cause staining on clothes.
NOTE
This option has been certifi ed by NSF
International®, an independent, third-party testing
and certifi cation organization dedicated to public
health, safety and environmental protection.
SANITIZE
Select the
sanitize
option for loads that may con-
tain harmful bacteria. An extended drying time at
high heat will kill 99.9% of bacteria with no carry-
over of bacteria between loads. Check fabric care
labels to prevent damage caused by high heat.

SHRINK GUARD
The
shrink guard
option reduces the initial drying
temperature and gradually lowers the drying tem-
perature during the cycle to protect fabrics from
shrinking.
DAMP ALERT
For loads that contain some items you plan to hang
dry, fl at dry or iron, add the
damp alert
option to
any Auto Dry cycle. If the
VOLUME
is turned up in
your preferences (see “Setting Preferences” on the
next page), a chime will sound when the load has
reached the
damp dry
dryness level to remind you
to remove those items to hang dry, dry fl at or iron
dry. Open the door, remove those items, close the
door and press the
start
button to continue drying
the remaining items.
ALLERGEN
Use this option to reduce allergens as you dry your
load. Not recommended for items prone to heat
damage.
