Press DRUM LIGHT at any time to turn the drum light ON or OFF. Damp Dry Signal Select the Damp Dry Signal to alert you that your clothes are approximately 80% dry. This is useful when you want to remove lightweight items in a mixed load to avoid overdrying or remove partially dry items that may need ironing. The DAMP DRY SIGNAL is useful when drying bedsheets/linens in a mixed load. When the signal goes off, open the door to stop the dryer, rearrange the load inside the dryer, close the door and restart the dryer to finish the drying cycle. Rearranging the load will aid in the drying process. NOTE: The Damp Dry Signal is available only with the Auto Dry Cycles.
