GEAppliances.com E Temperature High For regular to heavy cottons. NOTE: Steam Dewrinkle and Steam Refresh require the High temperature setting. Medium For synthetics, blends, delicates and items labeled permanent press. Low For delicates, synthetics and items labeled tumble dry low. Extra Low For delicates, synthetics and items labeled tumble dry low. No Heat For fluffing items without heat. For use only with the Timed Dry cycles. F Options Delay Dry As the Delay Dry button is repeatedly pressed, the delay time sets to from 1 to 9 hours, and back to clear (0). After selecting the delay time, press Start and the delay time will count down the time remaining until the cycle starts. If the Delay Dry button is pressed for 3 seconds, it clears (regardless of the delay time) or terminates a delaying cycle. Extended Tumble Use this option to minimize the wrinkles in clothes. It provides 1 hour of no-heat tumbling after the clothes are dry. If you are using the cycle Signal and you select the Extended Tumble option, a signal will sound at the end of the drying time and every 5 minutes during the Extended Tumble cycle. This will remind you that it is time to remove the clothes. Damp Alert This option causes the dryer to beep when clothes have dried to a damp level. Remove items that you wish to hang dry. The Damp Alert will only beep when this option is selected (but the dry cycle will keep running). Removing clothes and hanging them when they are damp, can reduce the need to iron some items. The light beside the button will be lit when Damp Alert is on. Rack Dry Rack Dry is only allowed for timed cycles (Timed Dry & Quick Fluff). The light turns off if cycle knob is turned to a non-timed cycle. G My Settings As the cycle selector knob is turned, the Time (Timed Dry), Level (Dryness Level), and Temp (Temperature) settings change to automatic pre-set default settings. If you desire a different setting, press the appropriate button(s). Then press and hold the My Settings button for 3 seconds. The status heart and button lights will turn on and the dryer will save these settings for that knob selection. In the future, when you turn the selector knob to that cycle, your settings will be automatically recalled. To temporarily (for this load) return to the pre-set default settings, depress the My Settings button for 1/2 second. The status heart and button lights will turn off and the options will change back to these defaults. To make these default settings permanent, hold the My Settings button again for 3 seconds to make them your preferred settings (the lights will turn back on). NOTE: Variable Signal volume cannot be set for My Settings. Variable Signal Use the Variable Signal button to change the volume of the end of cycle and control signals. Press the button until you reach the desired volume (low-med-high) or off. The clothes should be removed when the beeper goes off so wrinkles do not set in. NOTE: ‡ Remove garments promptly at the sound of signal. Place clothes on hangers so wrinkles will not set in. ‡ Use the Variable Signal especially when drying fabrics like polyester, knits and permanent press. These fabrics should be removed so wrinkles will not set in. Drum Light The drum light will go on if the Drum Light button is pushed or the door is opened. It will stay on until the door is shut or the Drum Light or Power button is pushed. Control Lock You can lock the controls to prevent any selections from being made.

Cycle (time), dryness level, temperature, and additional tumble options can increase or decrease your energy efficiency. Some special cycles will not provide a display. 7
