*Estimated Time with Dryness Level (Normal) setting. Time will 

vary depending on load type and load size.

Use Timed Cycles to select a specific amount of drying time and 
a drying temperature. (Temperatures are not selectable with Air 
Fluff.) When a Timed 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. See “Changing Cycles, Options, and 
Modifiers.”

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

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

Rotate the dial to Air Fluff to use this cycle for items that require 
drying without heat such as rubber, plastic, and heat-sensitive 
fabrics. This table shows examples of items that can be dried

Options

You can customize your cycles by selecting options. Not all 
Options are available with all cycles. Current selections will glow 
green. If an option is unavailable with a selected cycle, the light 
will not illuminate when pressed and an error sound will be heard. 

Wrinkle Prevent helps smooth out wrinkles that form when you 
cannot unload the dryer promptly at the end of a cycle. During 
this option, the dryer stops tumbling and then tumbles again for 

 

a brief period.

■

Press WRINKLE PREVENT to get up to 2 hours of heat-free, 
periodic tumbling at the end of a cycle.
