Drying, Cycle, and Temperature Tips
Select the correct cycle and temperature for your load.
Your dryer tumbles the load without heat during the last few
minutes of all cycles to make the load easier to handle.
Drying tips
■ Follow care label directions when they are available.
■ If desired, add a fabric softener sheet. Follow package
instructions.
■ Remove load from the dryer as soon as tumbling stops to
reduce wrinkling. This is especially important for Normal, knits,
and synthetic fabrics.
Cycle and temperature tips
■ Dry most loads using the Normal automatic cycle.
■ Use a no heat (air) setting for rubber, plastic, or heat-
sensitive fabrics.
■ Line-dry bonded or laminated fabrics.
NOTE: If you have questions about drying temperatures for
various loads, refer to the care label directions.
Cycles
Normal
This automatic cycle shuts off the dryer when the selected
dryness is reached. The Cycle Control knob does not move
until the load is almost dry. After the cool down, the knob
automatically turns to an Off area and tumbling stops.
Dry most loads using the Normal automatic cycle.
■ If the load is drier than you like, select a setting closer to Less
Dry the next time you dry a similar load.
■ If the load is not as dry as you like, complete drying using
the Timed Drying cycle. The next time you dry a similar load,
select a setting closer to Very Dry.
NOTE: Drying time with an automatic cycle varies according to
the type of fabric and size of load.
Air cycle
Use this cycle for items that require drying without heat, such
as rubber, plastic and heat-sensitive fabrics. See the chart for
examples of items that can be dried using an air cycle.
Type of Load Time*
Foam rubber - pillows,
padded bras, stuffed toys
20 - 30
Plastic - shower curtains,
tablecloths
20 - 30
Rubber-backed rugs 40 - 50
Olen, polypropylene, sheer
nylon
10 - 20
*(Minutes). Reset cycle to complete drying, if needed.
When using an air cycle
■ Check that coverings are securely stitched.
■ Shake and uff pillows by hand periodically during cycle.
■ Dry item completely. Foam rubber pillows are slow to dry.
Timed Drying Cycle
Use this cycle to complete drying if items are still damp after the
automatic cycle.
Timed Drying is also useful for:
■ Heavyweight items and work clothes that require a long
drying time.
■ Lightweight items, such as lingerie, blouses and knits that
require a short drying time.
For damp dry, turn the Cycle Control knob to 30 minutes or less.
End of Cycle Signal
The dryer sounds a signal to let you know when the cycle is
nished. The signal is not adjustable and cannot be turned off.
The signal is helpful when you are drying Normal, synthetics and
other items that should be taken out as soon as the dryer stops.
