Operating Instructions

Cycle Options

To add an option, press 

options

 until the indica-

tor for the desired option flashes, then press 

set

The indicator will be illuminated when the option 

has been selected. Follow the same steps to 

delete an option.
To protect your fabrics, not all options are avail-

able with every cycle. If an option is not avail-

able for a cycle, the indicator will not light.

Occasionally, two options or settings in the same 

cycle will conflict with each other, like 

eco

 op-

tion and 

sanitize

 temperature (on select models). 

When this happens, the option selected first will 

cause the conflicting option to not be selectable.

extended tumble (on select models)

Select the 

extended tumble

 option if the dried 

load might not be removed promptly at the end 

of the cycle. The dried load will tumble continu-

ously without heat for 30 minutes. A chime will 

sound periodically to remind you to remove the 

dried load.
The 

wrinkle release

 option can be selected with 

extended tumble

 to increase the amount of time 

the load will tumble without heat up to 75 minutes.

 

delay start (on select models)

Use   

delay start

 (on select models) to select a 

drying time convenient to your schedule or during 

off-peak energy hours. The start of any cycle 

can be delayed for 30 minutes to 12 hours. Scroll 

through the options to select the   

delay start

 

option, press 

set

 and then to scroll to the delayed 

desired time setting with the cycle selector. After 

choosing the desired delay time, press 

start

 and 

the delay time will begin counting down.

 

perfect steam

TM

 (on select models)

The   

perfect steam

TM

 option injects steam 

into the clothing 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 steam options as 

it may cause staining on clothes.

   

NOTE

To change the options once the cycle has 

begun, press the 

pause

 button, make the new 

selections and press 

start

 again.

   

NOTE

While counting down during 

delay start

, you 

will notice your dryer periodically tumbling for 

a few minutes without heat to redistribute the 

load, maximizing load freshness.

anti-static (on select models)

The 

anti-static

 option injects steam into the 

clothing just before cycle completion to reduce 

static.

wrinkle release

The 

wrinkle release

 option helps prevent 

wrinkles and tangling by tumbling the dry 

load without heat for 5 minutes out of every 10 

minutes. The 5 minutes on and 5 minutes off is 

repeated for a total 45 minutes. A chime will 

sound after every 5 minute tumble to remind you 

to remove the dried load.
The 

extended tumble

 (if available) option can 

be selected with 

wrinkle release

 to increase the 

amount of time the load will tumble without heat 

for up to 75 minutes.

 

lock

To lock the controls between cycles, scroll to 

the   

lock

 option and press 

set

. “ ” will be 

displayed on the panel. To unlock the controls 

scroll to the   

lock

 option and press 

set.

 Use 

this feature to reduce the likelihood of acciden-

tal operation by children.

eco

The 

eco

 option reduces the drying temperature 

a few degrees to save energy. In conjunction 

with automatic moisture sensors, cycle times 

will increase slightly, but overall energy usage 

will decrease. The 

 symbol will be shown on 

the center display to indicate the 

eco

 option is 

activated.
