Your model may differ. Drying Cycle Selection For best results Follow the fabric care label instructions on items to be dried. Turn the DRYER cycle selector in either direction to select a drying cycle. Normal Select this cycle to dry everyday fabrics including cottons, linens, and sheets. Bulky Select this cycle for bulky items such as comforters, blankets, mattress pads, sleeping bags, and other similar items. Delicates Select this cycle to dry cottons, blends, and permanent press items with a no-iron finish. Activewear Select this specialty cycle to dry lightweight synthetic athletic apparel including stretch fabrics. Timed Dry Cycles WARNING  NOTE FIRE HAZARD To avoid fire hazard, DO NOT use heat to dry items containing feathers or down, foam rubber, plastics similarly textured, rubberlike materials. Use a Timed Dry cycle with the Air Dry setting. To change settings after the cycle starts, press the START|PAUSE button and adjust the setting. Press the START|PAUSE button again to resume the cycle. Auto Dry Cycles Auto Dry cycles take the guesswork out of selecting the correct drying time for each load. With auto dry cycles, the load will automatically be dried at the selected temperature. When the load has neared the end of the drying cycle, it will continue to tumble for a brief cool down period. This helps reduce wrinkling and makes items easier to handle during unloading. Drying time varies depending on size of load, dampness of load, and fabric type. Available auto dry settings are as follows: Quick Dry Select this timed cycle to quickly dry a small load made up of just a few items. It provides approximately 25 minutes of tumbling including a cool down period. Timed Dry Select a timed drying cycle for any load using one of the preset cycles of 15, 30, 60, or 90 minutes. The dryer will continue to heat throughout the cycle until the final cool down period. Air Fluff Select this cycle for loads that require air drying only. No heat will be used with this setting. This setting should be used for dry items such as items containing feathers, down, foam rubber, plastics, or rubber-like materials; to refresh clothing, stuffed animal, pillows, or blankets; and to dust draperies. 16
