SHIELD™ feature periodically tumbles, rearranges, and 
fluffs the load to help keep wrinkles from forming.

CYCLE SIGNAL
The Cycle Signal produces an audible sound when the  
drying cycle is finished. Promptly removing clothes at the 
end of the cycle reduces wrinkling.
Press CYCLE SIGNAL until the desired volume (Loud, Soft, 
or Off) is selected.

and the Cycle Signal is on, the tone will sound every  
20 minutes until the clothes are removed, or the Wrinkle 
Shield™ setting ends.
DAMP DRY SIGNAL (for use with Automatic  
Cycles only)
Selecting the Damp Dry Signal will alert you when your 
clothes are approximately 80% dry. This is useful when  
you want to remove lightweight items in a mixed load to 
avoid overdrying or remove partially dry items that may  
need ironing.

open for 30 minutes.
Press DRUM LIGHT at any time to turn the drum light ON  
or OFF.
