Dryer Cycle Guide
Explosion Hazard
Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away from dryer. Do not dry anything that has ever had anything flammable on it (even after washing). Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, explosion, or fire.
Fire Hazard
No washer can completely remove oil. Do not dry anything that has ever had any type of oil on it (including cooking oils). Items containing foam, rubber, or plastic must be dried on a clothesline or by using an Air Cycle. Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or fire.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS, located in your appliance's Owner's Manual, before operating this appliance.
Understanding Dryer Cycles
This 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 and select the appropriate "How to Dry" selection. Modifiers are preset for the items being dried, but can be changed if desired.
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 V.
For best fabric care, choose the cycle that best fits the load being dried.
Key:
