Avoid drying heavy work clothes together with lighter fabrics. This could cause
overdrying of lighter fabrics and lead to increased shrinkage or wrinkling.
Cycle tips
I])ry most loads using the preset cycle settings.
Refer to the Sensor, Steam, or Timed Preset Cycle Settings chart (in the "Cycles" section)
for a guide to drying various loads.
I])rying temperature and dryness level are preset when you choose a Sensor I])ry
Cycle. You can select a different dryness [eve[, depending on your load, by pressing
Dryness and choosing More, Normal, I_ess, or Damp. The initial preset temperature is
the preferred setting; however, you may select an alternate drying temperature by
pressing TEMP I_EVEL. Once selected, the new heat setting will be retained until reset
to the initial preset temperature. The Delicate and Bulky cycles do not allow an
alternate temp to be selected.
If you wish to adjust the cycle length of a Timed Cycle, press TIME ADJUST + (plus) or
- (minus). Adjust the temperature of a Timed Cycle by pressing TEMP I.EVEI. until the
desired temperature is selected.
NOTE: You cannot choose a dryness [eve[ with Timed Cycles.
Follow the progress of your dryer with the drying Status indicator lights.

Sensor Cycles
Sensor Cycles allow you to match the cycle to the load you are drying. See the following
Sensor Preset Cycle Settings chart. Each cycle dries certain fabrics at the recommended
temperature. A sensor detects the moisture in the load and automatically adjusts the drying
time for optimal drying. An alternate temperature is se[ectab[e for all cycles with the
exception of the Delicate and Bulky by pressing the TEMP I.EVEI. button.
Bulky
Use this cycle to get medium heat for drying large items that require very long drying times
such as jackets, comforters, and cotton or polyester fiber filled pillows. Rearrange the load
when the Damp Dry signal sounds. This step will aid in the drying process.
Heavy Duty
Use this cycle to get regular heat for heavyweight mixed loads, cottons, and jeans.
Normal
Use this cycle to get medium heat for drying sturdy fabrics such as work clothes and sheets.
Wrinkle Control
Use this cycle to get low heat for drying no-iron fabrics, such as sport shirts, casual business
clothes, and permanent press blends.
