Operating Your Spacemaker Appliance Polyester Knits & Perm Press Drying Tips • Do not overload-Garments being dried or dewrinkled should tumble freely. • Remove clothes immediately-To help prevent wrinkling, remove clothes from the dryer immediately at the end of the drying cycles. • Place on hangers-Permanent Press and Polyester Knit garments look best if placed on hangers after drying. How Timed and Automatic Drying Differ Automatic drying-The Automatic Dry Control system continually senses air temperature in dryer drum. Wet laundry keeps this air cool. When drum air is warm enough, heat turns off. When the air cools, heat turns back on. This on and off cycling may happen a number of times (depending on the fabric, load size and Cycle Selector setting). The Cycle Selector advances (when the heat is off) until it automatically turns dryer off. Timed drying-You select the number of minutes you wish the dryer to run and it turns off at the end of this time period.
