LED DISPLAY AND SETTINGS

When you select a cycle, its default settings will light up and the Estimated Time Remaining (for Sensor Cycles) or actual time remaining (for Timed Cycles) will be displayed.

Touch the setting names next to the display to adjust settings.

See “Cycle Guide” for available settings on each cycle.

Not all settings are available with all cycles.

Temperature

When using Timed Cycles or Custom Refresh, you may select a dry temperature based on the type of load you are drying. Use the warmest setting safe for the garments in the load. Follow garment label instructions.

NOTE: Sensor Cycles use a preset temperature that is not adjustable.

Dryness Level

You may adjust the Dryness Level on Sensor Cycles

(except for the Sanitize cycle), if desired.

NOTE: Dryness Level is for use with Sensor Cycles only.

Wrinkle Prevent

If you will be unable to remove a load immediately, touch

Wrinkle Prevent to add up to 120 minutes of periodic tumbling to help reduce wrinkling. On some cycles, you may select the “With Steam” setting to add a short steam cycle after 60 minutes to help smooth out wrinkles.

Garments

This setting allows you to enter the number of items you are placing in the dryer for the Custom Refresh cycle.

The number of items determines the cycle time.

OPTIONS

Use to select available options for your dryer. Not all cycles and options are available on all models.

Drum Light

Touch to turn the LED drum light on or off. The light will also turn on when the door is open, and turn off automatically after about 5 minutes.

Reduce Static

Touch to add the Reduce Static option to selected

Sensor cycles (see “Cycle Guide”). The dryer will automatically tumble, pause, and introduce a small amount of moisture into the load to help reduce static. This option adds approximately 8 minutes to the total cycle time.

Steam Boost

Steam Boost adds steam to the end of the Heavy Duty,

Bedding, Normal, or Garments cycle to help smooth wrinkles. Steam Boost can be used with High or

Medium heat settings.

Damp Dry Signal

Touch to select the Damp Dry Signal. When selected, a series of beeps will sound when the load is damp, but not completely dry. This will allow you to take clothes out of the load that do not need to dry completely. This option is available on Heavy Duty, Normal, Bedding, and Delicates cycles.

Cycle Signal

Use this to turn the signal indicating the end of a drying cycle on or off.

NOTE: You may also turn off the tones that sound when a feature, setting, or option is touched. Touch and hold

Cycle Signal for about one second to turn sounds on or off.

Control Lock

Use to lock the controls of the dryer and avoid an accidental change in cycle options or preferences during a drying cycle.

NOTE: The Control Lock function may be enabled when recovering from a power failure. To unlock the control, touch and hold CONTROL LOCK for at least 3 seconds.

CYCLE STATUS LIGHTS

The indicator bar on the right side of the control will let you know what stage of the drying cycle is in process. For more information on each stage, see “Cycle Status Indicators.”
