CONTROL PANEL & FEATURES 1 2 3 4 6 5 Not all features and options are available on all models. Appearance may vary. 1 POWER BUTTON Press to turn the dryer on and off. 2 DRYER CYCLE Knob Use your Dryer Cycle Knob to select available cycles on your dryer. Turn the knob to select a cycle for your laundry load. See "Cycle Guide" for detailed descriptions of cycles. Timed Dry Will run the dryer for the specified time on the control. On models with a selectable temperature knob, you may choose a setting based on the fabrics in your load. Drying time and temperature will depend on your dryer model. Automatic Cycles with ACCUDRY™ Control Senses moisture in the load and air temperature and shuts off when the load reaches the selected dryness level. Gives the best drying in the shortest time. Drying time will vary based on fabric type, load size, and dryness setting. 3 START/PAUSE BUTTON Press to start a cycle, or press once while a cycle is in process to pause it. 4 OPTIONS AND SETTINGS Temp Select a drying temperature based on the fabrics in your load. If you are unsure of the temperature to select for a load, select the lower setting rather than the higher setting. NOTE: The Air Dry Temp Feature is not available on the Automatic Cycles. Wrinkle Shield™ Feature When you are unable to remove a load of clothes from the dryer as soon as it stops, wrinkles can form. The WRINKLE SHIELD™ feature periodically tumbles, rearranges, and fluffs the load to help keep wrinkles from forming. n Get up to 60 or 150 minutes for models with two choices, 90 minutes for models with only one choice of heat-free, periodic tumbling at the end of a cycle. Press the WRINKLE SHIELD™ button to turn ON or OFF at any time before the cycle has ended. Cycle Signal The Cycle Signal produces an audible sound when the drying cycle is finished. Promptly removing clothes at the end of the cycle reduces wrinkling. Press CYCLE SIGNAL until the desired volume (Loud, Soft, or off) is selected. NOTE: When the Wrinkle Shield™ setting is selected and the Cycle Signal is on, the tone will sound every 20 minutes until the clothes are removed, or the Wrinkle Shield™ setting ends. 5 DAMP DRY SIGNAL (for use with Automatic Cycles only) Selecting the Damp Dry Signal will alert you when 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. 6 CYCLE STATUS LIGHTS Lights indicate the progress of the drying cycles. 5
