Cycle tips
■ Dry most loads using the preset cycle settings.
■ Refer to the Automatic or Timed Preset Cycle Settings chart (in
the “Cycles” section) for a guide to drying various loads.
■ Drying temperature and dryness level are preset when you
choose an Automatic Cycle. You can select a different
dryness level, depending on your load, by pressing Dryness
and choosing More, Normal, Less, or Damp.
NOTE: You cannot use the Time Adjust and you cannot
choose a Temperature with the Automatic Cycles.
■ If you wish to adjust the cycle length of a Timed Cycle, press
the Time Adjust up or down arrows. Adjust the temperature
of a Timed Cycle by pressing Temp until the desired
temperature is selected.

You cannot choose a dryness level with Timed
Cycles.
