Tips
• Do not overload--Garments
being dried or
dewrinkled
should tumble freely.

help prevent
wrinkling,
remove clothes from the dryer
immediately
at the end of the drying cycles.

look best if placed
on hangers after drying.
How Timed and Automatic
Drying Differ
Automatic
drying--The
Automatic
Dry Control
system continually
senses air temperature
in dryer
drum. Wet laundry keeps this air cool. When drum air
is warm enough, heat turns off. When the air cools,
heat turns back on. This on and off cycling may
happen a number of times (depending
on the fabric,
load size and Cycle Selector setting). The Cycle
Selector
advances
(when the heat is off) until
it automatically
turns dryer off.
Timed
drying--You
select the number of minutes
you wish the dryer to run and it turns off at the end
of this time period.
