6 OPTIONS Use to select available options for your dryer. Not all cycles and options are available on all models. Static Reduce (on some models) Touch to add the Static Reduce option to selected Automatic cycles. The dryer will automatically tumble, pause, and introduce a small amount of moisture into the load to help reduce static. This option adds approximately 8 minutes to the total cycle time. End Beep Use this to turn the signal indicating the end of a drying cycle to low, medium, high, or off. NOTE: You may also turn off the tones that sound when a feature, setting, or option is touched. Touch and hold End Beep for about three seconds to turn sounds to low, medium, high, or off. Damp Beep Touch to select the Damp Beep signal. You may adjust the signal to low, medium, high, or off. When selected, a series of beeps will sound when the load is damp, but not completely dry. This will allow you to take clothes out of the load that do not need to dry completely. This option is available on some cycles. The Damp Beep signal is selected as a default for the Bulky/Sheets cycle, as a reminder to manually reposition bulky loads midway through the cycle. Wrinkle Shield™ Option If you will be unable to remove a load immediately, touch Wrinkle Shield™ to add up to 150 minutes of periodic tumbling to help reduce wrinkling. You may select the "+ Steam" setting (on some models) to add a short steam cycle after 60 minutes to help smooth out wrinkles. NOTE: If you open the dryer door prior to the end of the Wrinkle Shield™ option, the dryer will go into Pause mode. You will need to touch Power to turn off or touch Start/Pause to continue Wrinkle Shield™ option. EcoBoost™ Option Touch to activate the EcoBoost™ option, which allows you to increase your energy savings by using a slightly lower heat level. This will increase dry times. EcoBoost™ option will default on for Mixed Normal. Can be selected for: Mixed Gentle, Casual Normal, Casual Gentle, Delicate Normal, and Delicate Gentle. It will be not available for the other cycles. Steam Refresh (steam models only) This cycle is best for reducing wrinkles and odors from dry items. Cycle time will increase depending on number of items. Cycle Guide - Steam Model The Whirlpool® Cabrio® dryer, has a unique user interface to help you select the best cycle you need for your load. The "What to Dry" "How to Dry" layout guides you to the optimal cycle in two easy steps: First determine what items are in the load that you are trying to dry. Use that to guide your "What to Dry" selection. Then determine how you want the dryer to dry them by selecting the appropriate "How to Dry" selection. To get the most energy savings and enhanced fabric care from your dryer use the Automatic cycles. These cycles measure the drying air temperature and moisture levels to turn the dryer off once the load reaches the selected dryness level. Dryer performance and results may vary with service voltage less than 240. For best fabric care, choose the cycle that best fits the load being dried.
