Whirlpool ggw9250s User Guide

Use Manual Cycles to select a specific amount of drying time and 
a drying temperature. When a Manual Cycle is selected, the 
Estimated Time Remaining display shows the actual time 
remaining in your cycle. You can change the actual time in the 
cycle by pressing MORE TIME or LESS TIME.

Use this cycle to complete drying if items are still damp after an 
Automatic Cycle. Timed Dry is also useful for drying heavyweight 
and bulky items such as bedspreads and work clothes. 
Lightweight garments, such as exercise wear, can be dried using 
Timed Dry on a Low temperature setting.

Use this setting to help smooth out wrinkles from such items as 
clothes packed in a suitcase or wrinkled from being left in the 
dryer too long.

Use this cycle for drying small loads or loads that need a short 
drying time. 

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

■

Press the WRINKLE SHIELD™ feature to get up to 
120 minutes of heat-free, periodic tumbling at the end of a 
cycle.

■

Stop at any time by pressing the WRINKLE SHIELD™ feature 
or opening the dryer door.

■

For the Casual Cycle, the WRINKLE SHIELD™ feature is 
preset to “ON.” The other Automatic Cycles will retain the 
WRINKLE SHIELD™ feature setting. (For example, if you 
select the WRINKLE SHIELD™ feature in the Normal cycle, 
the WRINKLE SHIELD™ feature will be on the next time you 
select the Normal cycle.)

NOTE: If you do not select the WRINKLE SHIELD™ feature, the 
dryer stops after the cool down period.

Temperature settings are used with the Manual Cycles. Press 
TEMPERATURE until the desired temperature setting glows. 
Temperature settings cannot be used with the Automatic Cycles. 

Use the Air Only setting for items that require drying without heat 
such as rubber, plastic and heat-sensitive fabrics. This chart 
shows examples of items that can be dried using Air Only.

*Reset time to complete drying, if needed.

■

Check to see that coverings are securely stitched.

■

Shake and fluff pillows by hand periodically during the cycle.

■

Dry item completely. Foam rubber pillows are slow to dry.

NOTE: Automatic Cycles are not available when using the Air 
Only setting.

The End of Cycle Signal produces an audible sound when the 
drying cycle is finished. Promptly removing clothes at the end of 
the cycle reduces wrinkling.

Press and release the END OF CYCLE SIGNAL to adjust the 
sound level or turn off the signal.

NOTE: When the WRINKLE SHIELD™ feature is selected and the 
End of Cycle Signal is on, an audible sound will be emitted every 
5 minutes until the clothes are removed, or the WRINKLE 
SHIELD™ feature is finished.
