ACCUDRY™/AUTOMATIC DRY Cycles
You can select a different dryness level, depending on your 

load, by turning the knob to dryness level. 
Selecting Very Dry, ENERGY PREFERRED, or Less Dry  

automatically adjusts the dryness level at which the dryer will 

shut off. Once a dry level is set, it cannot be changed without 

stopping the cycle.
ACCUDRY™/AUTOMATIC DRY cycles give the best drying in 

the shortest time. Drying time varies based on fabric type, load 

size, and dryness setting.
NOTE: Very Dry removes more load moisture. ENERGY  

PREFERRED is used for a starting point for ACCUDRY™ 

cycles. Choose ENERGY PREFERRED for optimal energy  

savings. Less Dry removes less moisture and used for loads 

you may want to put on a hanger to complete drying.
