To use a Manual Cycle

Rotate the dial to select a Manual Cycle.

Press MORE TIME or LESS TIME until the desired drying time 
is displayed. Tap MORE TIME or LESS TIME and the time will 
change by 1-minute intervals. Press and hold MORE TIME or 
LESS TIME and the time will change by 5-minute intervals. 
The initial time displayed is the actual drying time.  

NOTE: The More Time or Less Time feature can be used only 
with Manual Cycles.

Press TEMPERATURE until the desired temperature 
glows.

NOTE: Pressing the Dryness Level button will cause the triple 
beep indicating that this option is not selectable. Also, a 
Dryness Level is not indicated.

Press the WRINKLE SHIELD™ feature button if this 
option is desired.

Press the END OF CYCLE SIGNAL button to set volume 
to desired level.

Press (and hold) HOLD TO START button until dryer starts 
(about 1 second).

While a Manual Cycle is running, you can change the settings 
for Time, Temperature, the WRINKLE SHIELD™ feature, and 
the End of Cycle Signal. Press the PAUSE/CANCEL key twice 
to stop the dryer and clear the settings, allowing you to select 
another cycle.

Stopping Your Dryer

To stop your dryer at any time

Press PAUSE/CANCEL twice or open the door.

Pausing or Restarting

To pause the dryer at any time

Open the door or press PAUSE/CANCEL once.

To restart the dryer

Close the door and press (and hold) HOLD TO START button until 
dryer starts.

NOTE: Drying will continue from where the cycle was interrupted 
if you close the door and press Start within 5 minutes. If the cycle 
is interrupted for more than 5 minutes, the dryer will shut off. 
Select new cycle settings before restarting the dryer.

Control Locked

This feature allows you to lock your settings to prevent 
unintended use of the dryer. You can also use the Control Locked 
feature to prevent unintended cycle or option changes during 
dryer operation.

To enable the Control Locked feature when dryer is 
running: 

Press and hold the END OF CYCLE SIGNAL button for three 
seconds. The control is locked when a single beep is heard and 
the Control Locked status light is on. 

When the dryer is off, it is not necessary to press the Control 
On button before activating the Control Locked feature. 

To unlock:

Press and hold the END OF CYCLE SIGNAL button for three 
seconds to turn this feature off. 

NOTE: When the dryer is running and Control Locked is on, the 
dryer can be stopped by pressing the Pause/Cancel button, but 
can’t be restarted until the control is unlocked.

Loading

Properly loading your dryer can lower your utility bill and prolong 
the life of your garments.

Loading suggestions

Load the dryer by the amount of space items take up, not by 
their weight.

Do not overload the dryer. This causes wrinkling and uneven 
drying.

Drying and Cycle Tips

Select the correct cycle and dryness level or temperature for your 
load. If an Automatic Cycle is running, the display shows the 
estimated cycle time when your dryer is automatically sensing 
the dryness level of your load. If a Manual Cycle is running, the 
display shows the exact number of minutes remaining in the 
cycle.

Cool Down tumbles the load without heat during the last few 
minutes of all cycles. Cool Down makes the loads easier to 
handle and reduces wrinkling. The length of the Cool Down 
depends on the load size and dryness level.

Drying tips

Follow care label directions when they are available.

If you use fabric softener sheets, use only ones labeled as 
dryer safe. Follow package instructions.

Remove the load from the dryer as soon as tumbling stops to 
reduce wrinkling. This is especially important for permanent 
press, knits, and synthetic fabrics.

Avoid drying heavy work clothes with lighter fabrics. This 
could cause overdrying of lighter fabrics, leading to increased 
shrinkage or wrinkling.
