Timed Dry
Use this cycle to complete drying if items are still damp after a Sensor Cycle. Timed Dry is
also useful for drying heavyweight and bulky items, such as bedspreads, and work clothes.
Lightweight garments, such as exercise wear, can be dried using Timed Dry on a low
temperature setting. Timed Dry can also be used with the drying rack.
Rapid Dry
Use this cycle for dying small loads that need short drying time.
Freshen Up
Use this cycle to help smooth out wrinkles from such items as clothes packed in suitcases or
items wrinkled from being left in the dryer to long.

Sensor Cycle Modifiers
Use the DRYNESS LEVEL button to select dryness levels for the Sensor Cycles. Press DRYNESS
LEVEL until the desired Dryness setting illuminates.
The preset dryness setting is Normal when a Sensor Cycle is selected. You can select a
different Dryness Level, depending on your load, by pressing DRYNESS LEVEL and choosing
More, Normal, Less, or Damp. Selecting More, Normal, Less, or Damp automatically adjusts
the Dryness Level at which the dryer will shut off. Once a Dryness Level is set, it cannot be
changed without stopping the cycle.
The initial preset temperature is the preferred setting for drying clothes; however, if desired,
one alternate temperature may be selected to dry the load on a lower heat setting. Once the
alternate temperature has been selected, the next time the same cycle is selected, the
alternate temperature is remembered and displayed. The original (default) temperature may
be reselected. The Delicate cycle does not offer an alternate temperature.
NOTE
: Dryness Level selections cannot be used with the Timed Cycle.

Wrinkle Prevent Setting
The Wrinkle Prevent 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 WRINKLE PREVENT setting to get up to 90 minutes of heat-free, periodic tumbling
at the end of a cycle.
■
Stop the Wrinkle Prevent at any time by pressing WRINKLE PREVENT setting or opening
the dryer door.
■
For the Wrinkle Control cycle, the Wrinkle Prevent setting is preset to ON. The other
Sensor Cycles will retain the Wrinkle Prevent setting. For example, if you select the
Wrinkle Prevent setting in the Normal cycle, the Wrinkle Prevent setting will be on the
next time you select the Normal cycle.
NOTE:
If you do not select the Wrinkle Prevent setting, the dryer stops after cool down.
