Steam Boost Steam Boost adds steam to the end of the Heavy Duty, Bedding, or Normal cycle to help smooth wrinkles. Steam Boost can be used with High or Medium heat settings. This option adds approximately 15 minutes to the total cycle time. Cycle Signal Use this to turn the signal indicating the end of a drying cycle on or off. NOTE: You may also turn off the tones that sound when a feature, setting, or option is touched. Touch and hold Cycle Signal for about one second to turn sounds on or off. Control Lock Use to lock the controls of the dryer and avoid an accidental change in cycle options or preferences during a drying cycle. Touch and hold CONTROL LOCK for 3 seconds to lock or unlock the controls of the dryer. During this time, the LED Display will count down 3-2-1. Once the controls are locked, the LED Display will display "Lc" or "Loc." NOTE: The Control Lock function may be enabled when recovering from a power failure. To unlock the control, touch and hold CONTROL LOCK for at least 3 seconds. 6 CYCLE STATUS INDICATORS Appearance may vary. The Cycle Status Indicators show the progress of a cycle. Not all indicators are available on all models. Sensing The Sensing indicator will light during Sensor Cycles to indicate that the moisture sensor on the dryer is operating. This indicator will not light during Timed Cycles or options such as Wrinkle Prevent. Check Vent This indicator will show the status of airflow through the dryer and the dryer vent system for the dryer's life. During the sensing phase at the beginning of the cycle, the Check Vent light will come on if a blocked vent or low airflow issue is detected. This light will stay on for the entire cycle. The light will be cleared when selecting a new cycle, touching POWER, or opening the door after the cycle has completed. This feature is available during Sensor and Steam cycles only. For more information on maintaining good airflow, see "Check Your Vent System for Good Airflow". NOTE: If there are other error issues during a cycle, the Check Vent indicator will not light up. See "Troubleshooting" section. Good Airflow This indicator will light if there is no major vent blockage. Steaming This indicator will light when a steam function is active. NOTE: Steam is not available on all cycles. Done This will indicate that the selected cycle has ended and the load may be removed from the dryer. If Wrinkle Prevent has been selected, the dryer may continue to tumble the load, even if the Done indicator is lit. Check Lint Screen The Check Lint Screen indicator will light when the drying cycle is complete as a reminder to clean the lint screen. 7
