Starting Your Dryer
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to 
persons, read the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS before 
operating this appliance.
Follow these basic steps to start your dryer. Please refer to 
specific sections of this manual for more detailed information.
1. Clean lint screen before each load. See “Cleaning the Lint 
Screen.”
2. Place laundry in dryer and shut door. 
3. Press the POWER button. Then rotate the dial or press a 
Timed Cycles button to select the desired Auto or Timed 
Cycle. The preset settings for Auto Cycles or Timed Cycles 
will illuminate. The estimated or actual cycle time (in minutes) 
will show in the display.
To use an Auto Cycle
NOTE: A light next to each feature will glow green when the 
feature is selected or will glow amber when the feature is 
selectable. The light will not glow when the selection is 
unavailable with the cycle or option combinations selected.
Select an Auto Cycle.
Select DRYNESS LEVEL to adjust how dry you want the 
load. As the cycle runs, the control senses the dryness of 
the load and adjusts the time automatically for the 
selected dryness level.
NOTE: Most loads may be dried using Normal dryness 
level, which is shown in bold letters on your control panel. 
Normal is the energy preferred dryness level and will use 
the least energy.
Select the desired Options.
To make changes during an Auto Cycle:
Press STOP once.
Adjust Dryness Level. 
NOTE: Dryness Level selections can be made only while 
using Auto Cycles. You can select a different dryness 
level, depending on your load, by pressing Dryness Level 
and choosing More Dry, Normal or Less Dry. Selecting 
More Dry, Normal or Less Dry automatically adjusts the 
sensed time needed.
