Dryer Cycle Guide
Settings and options shown in bold are default settings for that cycle. For best fabric care, choose the cycle, options, and settings that best fit the load being dried. 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.

The as-shipped defaults of Low Heat Normal, EcoBoost ON, Medium Temperature and Wrinkle Shield Off were used.
