Amana YKEHS01P User Manual

*Estimated Time with Dryness Level (medium) setting.

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 the Manual Dry Time (- or +) buttons.

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. 

Use this setting to remove wrinkles from items, such as clothes 
packed in a suitcase or items 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 Extra Care feature 
periodically tumbles, rearranges and fluffs the load to avoid 
wrinkles.

■

Press the Extra Care 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 Extra Care feature or 
opening the dryer door.

■

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

NOTE: If you do not select the Extra Care feature, the dryer stops 
after the cool down period.

Temperature settings are used with the Manual Cycles. Press 
TEMP 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.
