OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Cycle Settings For best results Follow the fabric care label instructions on items to be dried. Select appropriate drying temperature, dryness level and options most suitable for each load. Make selections based on load size, dampness and fabric type and durability. The settings can be changed before the cycle is started. If changes are attempted after the cycle starts, the lights will flash and a signal will beep, but the cycle will continue. Í NOTE To change the settings once the cycle has begun, push in the cycle selector knob to pause the cycle, make the new selections and push in the selector knob again to restart the dryer. Drying Temperature Turn the temp knob until the desired drying temperature is selected. To protect your fabrics, the temperature range from low to high settings may be different depending on cycle selected. If an unavailable temperature setting is selected by the user, the nearest available temperature will be substituted. Refer to complete dryer settings chart. sanitize (on select models) Recommended for durable fabrics and towels. Use this selection to remove harmful bacteria from your clothing or other items where sanitization is desired. Í NOTE Only sanitizing cycles have been designed to meet the requirements of NSF P154 protocol for sanitization efficacy. NSF Protocol P154 Sanitization Performance of Residential Clothes Dryers This option will kill 99.9% of bacteria with no carryover of bacteria between loads. A higher temperatures is required. Please check fabric care labels to prevent damage. max (on select models) Recommended for durable fabrics and towels. high Recommended for most cotton fabrics. normal Recommended for wrinkle free, easy care, lightweight fabrics and bulky loads. low Recommended for delicate fabrics. air dry This setting (no heat) can only be selected with a timed cycle.

Select the normal dryness level for most Auto Dry cycles. Occasionally a load may seem too damp or over-dried at the end of the cycle. To increase drying time for similar loads in the future, select high. For loads requiring less drying time, select low. Select damp (on select models) for items you wish to partially dry before hanging or ironing. Options energy saver (on select models) The energy saver option reduces the drying temperature a few degrees to save energy. In conjunction with automatic moisture sensors, cycle times will increase slightly, but overall energy usage will decrease. shrink guard (on select models) Select shrink guard to lower the initial drying temperature to protect fabrics from overdrying. wrinkle release Select wrinkle release if the dried load might not be removed promptly at the end of the cycle. The dry load will continue tumbling without heat to help reduce wrinkling. When chime is selected, a beep will be heard periodically. The load may be removed any time during wrinkle release. chime A signal will sound at the end of the cycle (and periodically during wrinkle release) if this option is selected. 9
