NOTE
: The Cycle Control knob featuring Automatic Dry is not
shown.
After drying a load in any of the automatic cycles, check the
dryness.
If the load is drier than you like, select a setting closer to Less Dry
the next time you dry a similar load.
If a load is not as dry as you like, complete drying using a Timed
cycle. Select a setting closer to Very Dry the next time you dry a
similar load.
Drying time varies with an Automatic cycle. The type of fabric,
size of the load, and the dryness selected affect drying time. See
“Drying, Cycle and Temperature Tips.”
Timed Dry Cycle
Use the Timed Dry cycle for heavyweight and bulky items, such
as bedspreads and work clothes or large loads that require a long
drying time. Set the temperature selector, if available, to High
Heat.
On some models, you may use the Timed Dry cycle for
lightweight items such as lingerie or knits. Set the temperature
selector, if available, based on the fabrics in your load.
NOTE:
Use your Timed Dry cycle to complete drying if items are
still damp after the Automatic cycle.
Air Dry Cycle
Use the Air Dry cycle for items that require drying without heat
such as rubber, plastic, and heat-sensitive fabrics. Set the Cycle
Control knob to Air Dry. This chart shows examples of items that
can be dried using the Air Dry cycle.

Additional Features

thick cotton bath towels or robes. Set the Temperature selector, if
available, to High Heat.
Damp Dry
Select this setting to dry items to a damp level, or to dry items

too long. Set the temperature selector, if available, to Medium or
Low Heat depending on the fabrics in your load.
EXTRA TUMBLE™ option
Your model may vary from the model shown.
When you are unable to remove a load from the dryer as soon as

instructions for the EXTRA TUMBLE™ option on your model.

tumble the load without heat up to 45 minutes after the cycle

PLUS periodically tumbles the load without heat for the
selected time.

If your model has an End of Cycle Signal, the signal sounds when
