This is an independent cycle that cannot be combined with any other cycle. Cycle Signal Use this option to turn the signal indicating the end of a drying cycle to low, medium, high, or off. The volume you select here will also be applied to the Damp Dry Signal. NOTE: You may also turn off the tones that sound when a feature, setting, or option is touched. Touch and hold CYCLE SIGNAL for about 3 seconds to turn sounds to low, medium, high, or off.
