Button Descriptions
- Wrinkle Shield™ Option (on some models)
When you are unable to remove a load of clothes from the dryer as soon as it stops, wrinkles can form. The Wrinkle Shield™ Option periodically tumbles, rearranges, and fluffs the load to help keep wrinkles from forming.
- Get 90 minutes of heat-free, periodic tumbling at the end of a cycle. Turn the Wrinkle Shield™ Option knob to On or Off at any time before the cycle has ended.
- CYCLE CONTROL KNOB
Use the Cycle Control knob to select available cycles on your dryer. Turn
the knob to select a cycle for your laundry load. See the online “Cycle Guide” for details.
Timed Dry
Will run the dryer for the specified time on the control. On models with a selectable temperature knob, you may choose a setting based on the fabrics in your load. Drying time and temperature will depend on your dryer model.
AccuDry™ Cycle/Automatic Dry Cycle/Auto Dry Cycle
Senses moisture in the load or air temperature and shuts off when the load reaches the selected dryness level. Gives the best drying in the shortest time. Drying time will vary based on fabric type, load size, dryness setting, and temperature setting. - TEMPERATURE
Select a drying temperature based on the fabrics in your load. If you are unsure of the temperature to select for a load, select the lower setting rather than the higher setting.
NOTE: The No Heat temperature setting (on some models) is not available on AccuDry™ Cycles. - CYCLE SIGNAL/PUSH TO START
The Cycle Signal produces an audible sound when the drying cycle is finished. Promptly removing clothes at the end of the cycle reduces wrinkling. Turn the Cycle Signal knob to select the desired setting (On or Off). Press the Push to Start knob to start the dryer.
NOTE: When the Wrinkle Shield™ Option is selected and the Cycle Signal is on, the tone will sound every 5 minutes until the clothes are removed or the Wrinkle Shield™ Option setting ends.
