Stopping and Restarting

You can stop your dryer anytime during a cycle.

To stop your dryer

Open the dryer door or turn the Cycle Control knob to OFF.
NOTE: The Cycle Control knob should point to an Off area when

the dryer is not in use.

The drying time for an Auto-Sense Dry Cycle depends on load

type and load size. When drying a large or heavy load, the Cycle

Control Knob may take a long time before it begins to advance

into Cool Down. The Auto-Sense Dry Cycle takes the guesswork

out of drying time and enhances fabric care. The amount of time

that is displayed is the estimated time remaining in the cycle.

Drying Rack Option

Use the Drying Rack to dry items such as sweaters and pillows

without tumbling. The drum turns, but the rack does not move.

allows drying rack usage and for ordering information, please refer

1.
Place drying rack in dryer.

Style 1: Your drying rack has front legs. Slide rear pegs into

the dimples on the back wall of the dryer. Lower the front legs

to rest on the dryer opening.

How Auto-Sense Dry Plus Works

When you are using the Auto-Sense Dry Plus Cycle, the dryness

of the load is determined by two metal strips (sensors) located on

the inside of the dryer. The metal strips help "feel" the amount of

moisture left in the clothes as they pass. When there is moisture

left in the clothes, the Cycle Control Knob will not advance. As

clothes begin to dry, the amount of water left in the clothes

decreases, and the timer advances through the remainder of the

cycle. When the selected dryness level is reached, the dryer goes

into a cool down period of up to 10 minutes.

2. Load clothes loosely into the dryer and close the door. Do not

pack the dryer. Allow space for clothes to tumble freely.

3. Turn the Cycle Control knob to the recommended cycle for the

being dried. Use the Energy Preferred Automatic

Setting to dry most heavy to medium weight fabrics.

This booklet covers several different models. Your dryer may

not have all the cycles and features described.
Before using your dryer, wipe the dryer drum with a damp cloth to

remove dust from storing and shipping.
1. Clean lint screen before each load. See “Cleaning the Lint

Screen.”
