Loading
Load clothes loosely into the dryer. Do not pack the dryer. Allow
space for clothes to tumble freely. The following chart shows
examples of balanced loads that would allow for proper tumbling.
Drying, Cycle and Temperature Tips
Select the correct cycle and temperature for your load.
Cool Down 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 you use fabric softener sheets, use only those labeled
“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.
Cycle and temperature tips
■
Dry most loads using the Energy Preferred setting, if available
on your dryer.
■
Use a High heat setting for drying heavyweight items such as
towels and work clothes.
■
Use a Medium heat setting for drying medium weight items,
such as sheets, underwear, permanent press fabrics, and
some knits.
■
Use a Low heat setting for drying lightweight items such as
lingerie, blouses, dresses, and some knits.
■
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. If you are unsure
of the temperature to select for a load, select a lower setting
rather than a higher setting.
Cycles
Your model may vary from the model shown.
Cycle Control knob
Automatic Cycle(s)
Use your Automatic cycle to dry most loads. Your dryer uses

shuts off when the load reaches the selected dryness.

Automatic Dry (High Heat) and (Low Heat)
Select the temperature by moving the Cycle Control knob to
(High Heat) for bigger or heavier loads or (Low Heat) for
smaller or lighter loads.
