5. Adjust cycle settings, if desired 7. Remove garments promptly after cycle is finished Steam model shown You may adjust different settings, depending on whether you have selected a Sensor Cycle, Timed Cycle, or Steam Cycle (on some models). See the "Cycle Guide" for detailed information. NOTE: Not all options and settings are available with all cycles. Not all cycles are on all models. Sensor Cycles: You can select a different dryness level, depending on your load, by pressing the button for More, Normal, or Less. Selecting More, Normal, or Less automatically adjusts the dryness level at which the dryer will shut off. Once a dryness level is set, it cannot be changed without stopping the cycle. Sensor Cycles give the best drying in the shortest time. Drying time varies based on fabric type, load size, and dryness setting. Timed Cycles: When you select a Timed Cycle, the default time appears in the display. Use the More Time and Less Time buttons to increase or decrease the time in 1 minute increments. Press and hold to change the time in 5 minute increments. The default temperature may be changed by pressing the Temp Level button until the desired dry temperature is lit. Steam Cycles (on some models): Steam cycles add an extra boost of steam to help reduce odors and loosen wrinkles. Custom Refresh: Use to reduce odors and light wrinkles from small loads of 3-4 items. Auto Refresh: Use to reduce wrinkles, including from loads left in the dryer too long. 6. Press and hold START/PAUSE to begin cycle Steam model shown Promptly remove garments after cycle has completed to reduce wrinkling. If you will be unable to remove the load promptly, select the Wrinkle Prevent™ option before pressing START/PAUSE to add up to 90 minutes of periodic tumbling after the end of the drying cycle. Changing the Sensor Cycle settings to increase drying time If all your loads on all Sensor Cycles are consistently not as dry as you would like, you may change the default settings to increase the default dryness level. Your automatic drying settings can be adjusted to adapt to different installations, environmental conditions or personal preference. This change is retained and will affect all of your Automatic cycles, not just the current cycle/load. There are 3 drying settings, which are displayed using the time display: 01 Factory preset dryness level. 02 Slightly drier clothes, 15% more drying time. 03 Much drier clothes, 30% more drying time. To change the drying settings: NOTE: The settings cannot be changed while the dryer is running or paused. The dryer must be in standby mode (the power button is off) to adjust the default settings. 1. Before starting a cycle, press and hold the TEMP LEVEL button for 6 seconds. 2. Press the TEMP LEVEL button to select the dryness level shown in the time display: 1, 2, or 3. 3. Press START/PAUSE to save the new dryness level setting. Press and hold the START/PAUSE button to begin the cycle. 11
