OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

This manual covers many models and not all cycles, options, or features listed are available on every model. Console shown above

for reference only. Your model may differ.

Turn the cycle selector in either direction to the cycle

desired.

Once a cycle is running, turning the selector knob to

another selection will not change the cycle. If cycle

selection change is attempted after the cycle starts, the

indicator lights will fl ash and a signal will beep, but the

original cycle will continue.

Auto Dry Cycles

Auto Dry cycles take the guesswork out of selecting the

correct drying time for each load. Moisture sensing bars

at the back of the dryer drum sense the moisture level of

the load as it tumbles through the heated air. With Auto

Dry cycles, the load will automatically be dried at the

selected temperature to the desired dryness level. Auto

Dry cycles save time and energy and protect fabrics.
The estimated drying time will be displayed for about 5

minutes. Then the outside of the display will light up in a

circular track to indicate the drying time is automatically

being determined by the sensors. When the load has

reached the selected dryness level, it will continue to

tumble during a cool down period. This helps reduce

wrinkling and makes items easier to handle during

unloading.

Drying time varies depending on size and dampness of

load and fabric type. If the load is too small or almost

dry, the moisture sensing bars may not detect enough

moisture to continue the cycle and the cycle may end

after a few minutes. If this occurs, select a Timed Dry

cycle.
Room temperature and humidity, type of installation and

electrical voltage or gas pressure can also affect drying

time.
