■ Adjust Dryness. NOTE: Dryness selections can be made only while using Automatic Cycles. How the AccelerCare® 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.

Press the up or down arrows and the time will change by 1-minute intervals. Press and hold the up or down arrows and the time will change by 5-minute intervals.

Drying and Cycle Tips Select the correct cycle and dryness level or temperature for your load. If an Automatic Cycle is running, the display shows the estimated cycle time when your dryer is automatically sensing the dryness level of your load. If a Timed Cycle is running, the display shows the exact number of minutes remaining in the cycle. Cool Down tumbles the load without heat during the last few minutes of all cycles. Cool Down makes the loads easier to handle and reduces wrinkling. The length of the Cool Down depends on the load size and dryness level. Drying tips ■ Follow care label 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. 16
