Cycle selection For optimum drying results your dryer offers several cycle groups and additional options. Automatic cycles include Regular/Cotton and Permanent press. Cycle selection is based in part on the laundry fabric type. These cycles are controlled via moisture sensors. Cycle time is determined by the measured degree of moisture in the laundry and on the degree of dryness selected (e.g. Damp dry, Regular Dry, Extra Dry). Time cycles run for a length of time specified by the user. The Air fluff/No heat timed cycle uses ambient air (room temperature) without adding heat and runs for approximately 20 minutes, depending on the specific dryer model. Special cycles are custom designed for specific types of fabric such as wool or jeans. Wool or woolen products should only be dried using the dryer rack. Steam cycles are best suited for smoothing out wrinkles and reducing odors. These cycles should be used with loads consisting of three to four items made of wrinkle free cotton, cotton/polyester blend, cotton knit pullovers or synthetics. Steam programs are available only on select models. During Steam cycles a small amount of water is sprayed into the drum while tumbling the laundry load with heat. This process is repeated, followed by additional tumbling and a brief cool down period. The heat level and time are preset for these cycles. Note: Results may vary with fabric type. Garments that are 100% cotton and have wrinkle-resistant finish may give better results. If the nozzle stops spraying during one of the Steam cycles (symptoms would be water is not seen spraying into drum, clothes are less wrinkle-free than they customarily are with this function) check to be sure the nozzle is not clogged. Lint may accumulate to block the nozzle tip or hard water may cause buildup on the nozzle (see page 30). Option Buttons Delicates Press the "Delicates" button for temperature sensitive textiles. Observe the care information or symbols on the textiles. The temperature of the drying process is reduced and the drying time is extended by using this option. ECOAction Your dryer has an energy savings" ECO option. This option is used only with cotton and permanent press automatic cycles. Less heat is applied, and drying time is extended. Press the option button prior to starting an automatic program. i The length of the ECO cycle is affected by the load size, textile type and climatic conditions. Use this option with load sizes up to 1/2 load. i Combining with the Delicates" button can produce even more savings. Signal 300 and 500 Series Dryers Your dryer outputs an audible beeping signal to alert the user of certain events. Enable the signal by pressing the Delicates" and the ECOAction" option buttons simultaneously. To disable the signal, press both option buttons (again pressing both at the same time). Each press of the two option buttons together toggles the Signal on or off. It is not necessary to hold the buttons in after pressing them. The signal emitted will vary according to the following table. Signal Start End Incorrect Selection Warning of malfunction Type Short tone Sequence of short tones Sequence of long tones Sequence of long tones i The signal Warning of malfunction" is active regardless of whether or not the signal has been disabled. 23

Cycle
selection
For
optimum
drying
results
your
dryer
offers
several
cycle
groups
and
additional
options.
Automatic
cycles
include
Regular/Cotton
and
Permanent
press.
Cycle
selection
is
based
in
part
on
the
laundry
fabric
type.
These
cycles
are
controlled
via
moisture
sensors.
Cycle
time
is
determined
by
the
measured
degree
of
moisture
in
the
laundry
and
on
the
degree
of
dryness
selected
(e.g.
Damp
dry,
Regular
Dry,
Extra
Dry).
Time
cycles
run
for
a
length
of
time
specified
by
the
user.
The
Air
fluff/No
heat
timed
cycle
uses
ambient
air
(room
temperature)
without
adding
heat
and
runs
for
approximately
20
minutes,
depending
on
the
specific
dryer
model.
Special
cycles
are
custom
designed
for
specific
types
of
fabric
such
as
wool
or
jeans.
Wool
or
woolen
products
should
only
be
dried
using
the
dryer
rack.
During
Steam
cycles
a
small
amount
of
water
is
sprayed
into
the
drum
while
tumbling
the
laundry
load
with
heat.
This
process
is
repeated,
followed
by
additional
tumbling
and
a
brief
cool
down
period.
The
heat
level
and
time
are
preset
for
these
cycles.
Note:
Results
may
vary
with
fabric
type.
Garments
that
are
100%
cotton
and
have
wrinkle-resistant
finish
may
give
better
results.
If
the
nozzle
stops
spraying
during
one
of
the
Steam
cycles
(symptoms
would
be
water
is
not
seen
spraying
into
drum,
clothes
are
less
wrinkle-free
than
they
customarily
are
with
this
function)
check
to
be
sure
the
nozzle
is
not
clogged.
Lint
may
accumulate
to
block
the
nozzle
tip
or
hard
water
may
cause
buildup
on
the
nozzle
(see
page
30).
Steam
cycles
are
best
suited
for
smoothing
out
wrinkles
and
reducing
odors.
These
cycles
should
be
used
with
loads
consisting
of
three
to
four
items
made
of
wrinkle
free
cotton,
cotton/polyester
blend,
cotton
knit
pullovers
or
synthetics.
Steam
programs
are
available
only
on
select
models.
Option
Buttons
Delicates
Press
the
"Delicates"
button
for
temperature
sensitive
textiles.
Observe
the
care
information
or
symbols
on
the
textiles.
The
temperature
of
the
drying
process
is
reduced
and
the
drying
time
is
extended
by
using
this
option.
ECOAction
Your
dryer
has
an
²energy
savings"
ECO
option.
This
option
is
used
only
with
cotton
and
permanent
press
automatic
cycles.
Less
heat
is
applied,
and
drying
time
is
extended.
Press
the
option
button
prior
to
starting
an
automatic
program.
i
The
length
of
the
ECO
cycle
is
affected
by
the
load
size,
textile
type
and
climatic
conditions.
Use
this
option
with
load
sizes
up
to
1/2
load.
i
Combining
with
the
²Delicates"
button
can
produce
even
more
savings.
Signal
300
and
500
Series
Dryers
Your
dryer

Enable
the
signal
by
pressing
the
²Delicates"
and
the
²ECOAction"
option
buttons
simultaneously.
To
disable
the
signal,
press
both

pressing
both
at
the
same
time).
Each
press
of
the
two
option
buttons
together
toggles
the
