Additional Features

You can customize your cycles by selecting different features. If you change your mind, select a different feature.

WRINKLE SHIELD™ Setting

When you are unable to remove a load of clothes from the dryer as soon as it stops, wrinkles can form. The WRINKLE SHIELD™ setting periodically tumbles, rearranges and fluffs the load to avoid wrinkles.

Select the WRINKLE SHIELD™ setting by pressing the WRINKLE

SHIELD™ setting pad. The WRINKLE SHIELD™ setting periodically tumbles the load without heat for up to 120 minutes.

During the WRINKLE SHIELD™ setting, you can open the door to remove clothes, and press the START pad to resume the

WRINKLE SHIELD™ cycle.

Cycle Signal

If the Cycle Signal is selected, the signal sounds when a cycle is complete. If the WRINKLE SHIELD™ setting is selected, the signal sounds every few minutes. The signal stops when you open the door.
