Select the correct cycle and dryness level or temperature for your load. If a Sensor Cycle is running, the display shows the estimated cycle time when your dryer is automatically sensing the dryness level of your load. If a Timed Cycle is running, the display shows the exact number of minutes remaining in the cycle. Cool Down tumbles the load without heat during the last few minutes of all cycles. Cool Down makes the loads easier to handle and reduces wrinkling. The length of the Cool Down depends on the load size and dryness level. Drying tips • Follow care [abe[ directions when they are available. If desired, add a fabric softener sheet. Follow package instructions. Remove the load from the dryer as soon as tumbling stops to reduce wrinkling. This is especially important for permanent press, knits and synthetic fabrics. Avoid drying heavy work clothes with lighter fabrics. This could cause overdrying of lighter fabrics, leading to increased shrinking or wrinkling. If you dry sheets in a mixed load or large items, rearrange the load when the signal sounds. This will aid in the drying process. Cycle tips • Dry most loads using the preset cycle settings. • Refer to the Sensor or Timed Preset Cycle Settings chart (in the "Cycles" section) for a guide to drying various loads. • Drying temperature and Sensor Cycles Dryness are preset when you choose a Sensor Cycle. You can choose a different dryness level, depending on your load by pressing the SENSOR CYCI.ES DRYNESS button to select More Dry, Normal, or I.ess Dry. • If you wish to adjust the cycle length of a Timed Cycle, you must press the TIME ADJUST up or down buttons. Adjust the temperature of a Timed Cycle by pressing TIMED CYCI.ES TEMP until the desired temperature is selected. NOTE: You cannot choose a Sensor Cycles Dryness with Timed Cycles. 18
