Timed cycle(s)

Use a Timed drying cycle to complete drying if

some items are damp
after the Automatic
cycle. A Timed drying
cycle is also useful for:

•

Heavyweight and 

bulky items, such as 
bed spreads and work
clothes, and large loads
that require a long 
drying time. Set your
dryer to a heat setting

that matches the care label directions.

•

Lightweight items, such as lingerie, blouses, and 
knits that require a short drying time. Set your 
dryer for a low or extra low heat.

•

Drying time and temperature will depend on your
dryer model.

Fluff Air cycle

(on some models)

Use the unheated Fluff Air cycle for items that

require drying without
heat. For examples of

items that require air
drying, see the “Fluff

Air cycle” later in this
section.

NOTE: If your model 
does not have the

Fluff Air cycle, use the
Timed Drying cycle

and the “Air” Temp-

erature setting, or line dry heat-sensitive items.

Heavy Dry cycle

(on some models)

Use the Heavy Dry cycle to dry large items or 

items that are thicker
or heavier than a regu-
lar load (such as heavy
cotton bath towels or
robes.) Set your Cycle
Control knob to Heavy
Dry and your Tempera-
ture selector to High
heat.

Damp Dry feature

(on some models)

Use the Damp Dry feature in the Timed cycle to dry

items to damp level or 
to dry items that do not
require an entire drying
cycle. Two examples 
are heavy cottons, such
as jeans, which you do
not want to become
stiff, or cotton clothes
which are easier to
press when damp. Set
the Temperature selector
to High heat.

Towels feature

(on some models)

When you have large loads of towels to dry, you

may want to use the
Towels feature in the
Automatic cycle. The
Towels setting allows 
for more drying time and
automatically shuts off
the dryer when the se-
lected dryness is
reached. You can also
use the Towels feature
for extra heavy items

such as mattress pads and quilts. Set your dryer to
a heat setting that matches the care label direc-
tions.

Delicates feature

(on some models)

When you have small loads or loads of lightweight 

items to dry, you may 
want to use the 
Delicates feature in the 
Automatic cycle. The 
Delicates setting allows 
less drying time and 
automatically shuts off 
the dryer when the 
selected dryness is 
reached. Set the 
Temperature selector to 
Ex-Low heat.
