Whirlpool W10678948D - SP Use & Care Manual

Use the Automatic Cycles to provide the most energy savings and enhanced fabric care from the dryer. During Automatic Cycles,  

drying air temperature, heat pump unit temperature, and moisture level are sensed in the load. This sensing occurs throughout 

the drying cycle and the dryer shuts off when the load reaches the selected dryness. Use the NORMAL dryness level to provide 

optimal energy savings. 
With Timed Dry, the dryer runs the amount of time set and can result in shrinkage, wrinkling, and static due to over-drying. Use 

Timed Dry for the occasional damp load that needs a little more drying time or when using the drying rack.

HybridCare™ Heat Pump Technology

A typical dryer uses large amounts of energy; this dryer consumes a fraction of the energy by recycling and reclaiming heat.  

The HybridCare™ dryer is a ventless heat pump dryer that uses a refrigeration system to dry and recycle the same air. The 

laundry is dried with low temperatures; therefore it may feel cooler than expected during and after the drying process. 
The heat pump dryer’s heating phase is longer than in traditional dryers. If possible, do not open the dryer door during the 

process as heat can escape from the drum and can make longer drying times.

•  ENERGY: Regenerates energy to reduce overall energy

consumption.

•  PERFORMANCE: Three available modes allow flexibility to

manage drying performance and energy savings.

•  FABRIC CARE: Capability to use less heat than vented dryer.
•  VENTLESS DESIGN: Allows installation in more locations

throughout the home.

•  Dryer runs on a compressor like your refrigerator and you

may notice a hum from the compressor.

•  The water from wet clothes is pumped out to your drain. You

may notice a gurgling sound occasionally.
