Senses moisture in the load and shuts off when the load reaches the selected dryness level. The dry temperature shown is the default 

temperature. This setting can be modified on some cycles but is not retained for future drying with this cycle. The dryness level shown is the 

default dryness setting. This setting can be changed on some cycles and will be retained for future drying with this cycle. Available options 

shown in bold are default settings for that cycle.

Load Size Recommendations
For best results, follow the wet load size recommendations noted 

for each cycle. 

Small load: Fill the dryer drum with 3–4 items, not more than 

1/4 full. 

Medium load: Fill the dryer drum up to about 1/2 full. 

Large load: Fill the dryer drum up to about 3/4 full.  

Do not overload. Items need to tumble freely.

*  Extended high-heat drying cycle intended to help sanitize items such as sheets and towels. This cycle is not recommended for all fabrics. 

For best results, this cycle should be run to completion to ensure sanitization and do not interrupt cycle.

†

  You may select the “With Steam” setting to add a short steam cycle after 60 minutes. This is not available on Sanitize or Delicates. On 

Steam Models for these cycles, Wrinkle Prevent without Steam will be run to keep optimal clothes protected/performance.

To get the most energy savings and enhanced fabric care from your dryer, use the Sensing cycles. These cycles measure the drying air 

temperature and moisture levels to turn the dryer off once the load reaches the selected dryness level. For electric models, dryer performance 

and results may vary with service voltage less than 240.
