Auto Dry cycle (on some models)
Use your Automatic cycle to dry most loads. Your dryer has a
control that senses the moisture level in the load and shuts off
when the load reaches the selected dryness.
Select the temperature from the temperature selector based
on the fabrics in your load.
After drying a load, 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.
NOTE: 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 Drying cycle(s)
Use Timed Drying 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 Drying 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 Drying cycle to complete drying if items
are still damp after the Automatic cycle.
Air Fluff or Air Dry cycles
Use the Air Fluff or 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 Fluff or Air Dry. This chart
shows examples of items that can be dried using the Air Fluff or
Air Dry cycle.

Additional Features
This manual covers several different models. Your dryer may not
have all of the features described.
Heavy Dry
Select this setting to evenly dry large or heavy items such as
thick cotton bath towels or robes. Set the Temperature selector, if
available, to High Heat.
Cotton
Select this setting to thoroughly dry heavy items such as sheets,
mattress pads and quilts, or a load of towels. Set the temperature
selector, if available, to High Heat.
Synthetics/Permanent Press
Select this cycle to dry medium to lightweight synthetic or no-iron
items such as shirts, blouses, or dresses. Choose a Medium Heat
setting if available.
Quick Dry
Use this cycle for drying small loads or loads that need a short
drying time. Choose a High or Medium Heat setting depending
on the type of fabrics being dried.
Delicates
Select this option to dry small loads or lightweight items. Set the
temperature selector, if available, to Low or Extra Low Heat.
TUMBLE PRESS
Select this setting to remove wrinkles from items such as clothing
packed in a suitcase or items wrinkled from being left in the dryer
too long. Set the temperature selector, if available, to Medium or
Low Heat depending on the fabrics in your load.
Damp Dry
Select this setting to dry items to a damp level, or to dry items
that do not require an entire drying cycle. Damp dry items such
as jeans (to prevent stiffness) or cotton clothing (to make
pressing easier). Set the temperature selector, if available, to High
Heat.
Wrinkle Guard II
When you are unable to remove a load from the dryer as soon as
it stops, wrinkles can form. The Wrinkle Guard II feature
periodically tumbles, rearranges, and fluffs the load for up to 30
minutes without heat to avoid wrinkles. Press the Wrinkle Guard
ON button to enable the Wrinkle Guard II feature. A signal will
sound periodically when the Wrinkle Guard II feature is on if the
End of Cycle Signal is selected. The signal and the tumbling will
end when you open the dryer door, or when you turn the Cycle
Air Fluff or
Control knob to Off.
