To use a Sensor Cycle • Press POWER/CANCEl ..... Turn the knob to desired Sensor Cycle. Select DRYNESS LEVEl. to adjust how dry you want the load. As the cycle runs, the control senses the dryness of the load and adjusts the time automatically for the selected dryness [eve[. The initial preset temperature is the prefered setting for drying loads of different garment types listed (see "Sensor Cycles"). If desired, one alternate temperature may be selected to dry the load on a lower heat setting. The next time the same cycle is selected, the alternate temperature is remembered and displayed. The original (default) temperature may be rese[ected. The Delicate cycle does not offer an alternate temperatu re. Select the desired Options. To make changes during a Sensor Cycle: • Press START/PAUSE. • Adjust I)ryness I.evel. m damp m less Ill normal 11 more m very dry I dryness adiust sensor cycle only NOTE: Dryness selections can be made only while using Sensor Cycles. How the Sensi-Care 1M Drying System Works Moisture-sensing strips and temperature sensors inside the dryer drum monitor how fast the load is drying, how hot the air should be, and when clothes are dry. The system automatically stops the cycle to help save time and avoid overdrying. To use a Timed Cycle Turn knob to desired Timed Cycle. Press the TIME ADJUST + (plus) or- (minus) until the desired drying time is displayed. Press the + (plus) or - (minus) and the time will change by 1-minute intervals. Press and hold the + (plus) or - (minus) and the time will change by 5-minute intervals.

For more details, see "Options." 6. (OPTIONAl_ STEP) If desired, press ENID SIGNAL. A signal will sound to alert you when a cycle ends. For more details, see "End Signal." 7, Press START/PAUSE. Be sure the door is dosed. • If you do not press Start within 5 minutes of selecting the cycle, the dryer automatically shuts off. • If you wish to end your drying cycle after pressing Start, press POWER/CANCEl ..... To stop or pause your dryer at any time Open the door or press START/PAUSE. Press POWER/CANCEl. to cancel a cycle. To restart the dryer Close the door. Press START/PAUSE until dryer starts. NOTE: Drying will continue from where the cycle was interrupted if you dose the door and press Start within 5 minutes. If the cycle is interrupted for more than 5 minutes, the dryer will shut off. Select new cycle settings before restarting the dryer. 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 [eve[ of your load. If a Timed Cycle is running, the display shows the exact number of minutes remaining in the cycle. Coo[ Down tumbles the load without heat during the last few minutes of all cycles. Coo[ Down makes the loads easier to handle and reduces wrinkling. The length of the Coo[ Down depends on the load size and dryness [eve[. Drying tips • Follow care [abe[ directions when they are available. If desired, add a fabric softener sheet. Follow package instructions. To reduce wrinkling, remove the load from the dryer as soon as tumbling stops. This is especially important for permanent press, knits, and synthetic fabrics. Avoid drying heavy work clothes together with lighter fabrics. This could cause overdrying of lighter fabrics and lead to increased shrinkage or wrinkling. 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 dryness level are preset when you choose a Sensor Dry Cycle. You can select a different dryness level, depending on your load, by pressing Dryness and choosing More, Normal, Less, or Damp. The initial preset temperature is the preferred setting; howevec you may select an alternate drying temperature by pressing TEMP LEVEL Once selected, the new heat setting will be retained until reset to the initial preset temperature. The I)elicate cycle does not allow an alternate temp to be selected. If you wish to adjust the cycle length of a Timed Cycle, press the Timed Adjust + (plus) or- (minus). Adjust the temperature of a Timed Cycle by pressing Temp I_eve[ until the desired temperature is selected. NOTE: You cannot choose a dryness [eve[ with Timed Cycles.
