Additional Features
Extra Care Feature
When you are unable to remove a load of clothes from the dryer as soon as it stops, wrinkles
can form. The Extra Care feature periodically tumbles, rearranges and fluffs the load to help
reduce wrinkling.
■ Press the Extra Care feature to get up to 120 minutes of heat-free, periodic tumbling at the
end of a cycle.
■ Stop at any time by pressing the Extra Care feature or opening the dryer door.
■ For the Casual Cycle, the Extra Care feature is preset to “On.” The other Automatic Cycles
will retain the Extra Care feature setting. (For example, if you select the Extra Care feature
in the Normal cycle, the Extra Care feature will be on the next time you select the Normal
cycle.)
NOTE: If you do not select the Extra Care feature, the dryer stops after the cool down period.
Temperature
Temperature settings are used with the Manual Cycles. Press TEMP until the desired
temperature setting illuminates. Temperature settings cannot be used with the Automatic
Cycles.
Air Only
Use the Air Only setting for items that require drying without heat such as rubber, plastic and
heat-sensitive fabrics. This chart shows examples of items that can be dried using Air Only.
*Reset time to complete drying, if needed.
When using Air Only
■ Check that coverings are securely stitched.
■ Shake and fluff pillows by hand periodically during the cycle.
■ Dry item completely. Foam rubber pillows are slow to dry.
NOTE: Automatic Cycles are not available when using the Air Only setting.
Cycle End Signal
The Cycle End Signal produces an audible sound when the drying cycle is finished. Promptly
removing clothes at the end of the cycle reduces wrinkling.
Press and release the CYCLE END SIGNAL to adjust the sound level or turn off the signal. Your
dryer may vary from the model shown and may not have the same feature as shown here.
NOTE: When the Extra Care feature is selected and the Cycle End Signal is on, an audible
sound will emit every 5 minutes until the clothes are removed, or the Extra Care feature is
finished.
Drying Rack
The drying rack is useful for drying items you would not necessarily want to tumble dry or that
you would normally line dry (for example, sweaters).
To use the drying rack
Do not remove the lint screen.
