■

A light next to each feature will glow yellow when the feature is 

selected. The light will not glow when the selection is 

unavailable with the cycle or option combinations selected.

■

While a Timed Cycle is running, you can change the settings for 
Time, Temperature, the WRINKLE PREVENT feature and the 

cycle signals. Press the START-PAUSE button once to stop the 

dryer, allowing you to select another cycle.

■

Press the TIME ADJUST up or down buttons until the desired 
drying time is displayed. Press TIME ADJUST, and the time will 

change by 1-minute intervals. Press and hold TIME ADJUST, and 

the time will change by 5-minute intervals. The initial time 

displayed is the actual drying time.

■

Temperature settings can be changed only with Timed Cycles.

In these cycles, a small amount of water is sprayed into the dryer 

drum after several minutes of tumbling with heat. The dryer will 

continue to tumble at Regular heat for the duration of the cycle. The 

Steam cycles include Rapid Refresh and Custom Refresh. The heat 
setting and cycle time are not adjustable for the Rapid Refresh cycle, 

but can be adjusted for the Custom Refresh cycle.
NOTE: Results may vary depending on fabric. 100% cotton garments 

with wrinkle-free finish may yield better results than those without.
Use of a fabric softener sheet is not recommended with steam cycles 

as it may cause temporary staining on the clothes.

*NOTE: The Custom Refresh cycle has a minimum dry time of 

15 minutes and a maximum dry time of 40 minutes. Only the 
Regular and High temperature settings can be used for the Custom 

Refresh cycle.
NOTE: During the Custom Refresh Cycle, you can change the 

settings for Time, Temperature, the Wrinkle Prevent feature, and 

Signal On/Off. During the Rapid Refresh Cycle you can change the 

Wrinkle Prevent and Signal On/Off features. To change other 
settings, press START-PAUSE twice to stop the dryer and clear the 

settings. Select another cycle or option.

Use the Air Dry temperature 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 Dry or Air Only.

■

Check 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: Sensor Cycles are not available when using the Air Dry or 

 

Air Only setting.

You may follow the progress of your dryer with the drying Status 

indicator lights.

When you are unable to remove a load of clothes from the dryer as 

soon as it stops, wrinkles can form. The WRINKLE PREVENT feature 

periodically tumbles, rearranges, and fluffs the load to help keep 

wrinkles from forming. 

■

Press the WRINKLE PREVENT feature to get up to 120 minutes of 
heat-free, periodic tumbling at the end of a cycle. The Wrinkle 

Prevent indicator light blinks when this option is selected and 

that part of the cycle is occurring.

■

Stop at any time by pressing the WRINKLE PREVENT feature or 
opening the dryer door.

■

Other cycles will retain the WRINKLE PREVENT feature setting. 

(For example, if you select the WRINKLE PREVENT feature in the 

Normal cycle, the WRINKLE PREVENT feature will be on the 
next time you select the Normal cycle.)

NOTE: If you do not select the WRINKLE PREVENT feature, the 

dryer stops after the cool down period.
