Steam Boost
Use for drying large, bulky 
items; do not overfill dryer 
drum. Partway through the 
cycle, the signal will sound 
for 2 minutes to indicate 
when it is time to rearrange 
items for optimal drying.
Use Sensor Cycles for better fabric care and energy savings
The dryer senses moisture in the load or air temperature and shuts off when the load reaches the selected dryness level.  
Use the NORMAL dryness level to provide optimal energy savings.
