Damp Dry Signal
On some models, the Damp Dry Signal may be selected to alert
you that your clothes are approximately 80% dry. This is useful
when you want to remove lightweight items in a mixed load to
avoid overdrying or remove partially dry items that may need
ironing.
The DAMP DRY SIGNAL is useful when drying bedsheets/linens in
a mixed load. When the signal goes off, open the door to stop the
dryer, rearrange the load inside the dryer, close the door and
restart the dryer to finish the drying cycle. Rearranging the load
will aid in the drying process.
NOTE: The Damp Dry Signal is available only with the Automatic
Cycles. The Damp Dry Signal is not a selectable option for the
Sanitize cycle.
Cycle Signal
The End of Cycle Signal produces an audible sound when the
drying cycle is finished.
Press until the desired volume (Loud, Soft, or Off) glows green.
NOTE: When the WRINKLE SHIELD™ feature is selected and the
End of Cycle Signal is on, an audible sound will be emitted every
5 minutes until the clothes are removed, or the WRINKLE
SHIELD™ feature is finished.
Button Sound
You can change the volume of the sound of the beeps. Press until
the desired volume (Loud, Soft, or Off) glows green. The Power
and Cancel buttons will still beep softly even when the Button
Sound volume is set to Off.
Control Lock/Unlock
This feature allows you to lock your settings to avoid unintended
use of the dryer. You can also use the Control Lock feature to
avoid unintended cycle or option changes during dryer operation.
To enable the Control Lock feature when dryer is running:
Press and hold the CONTROL LOCK/UNLOCK button for
3 seconds. The control is locked when a double beep is heard and
the Control Lock status light is on.
■ When the dryer is off, it is not necessary to press the Control
On button before activating the Control Lock feature.
To unlock:
Press and hold the CONTROL LOCK/UNLOCK button for
3 seconds to turn this feature off.
NOTE: When the dryer is running and Control Lock is on, the
dryer can be stopped by pressing the Pause/Cancel button, but
cannot be restarted until the control is unlocked.

Changing the Preset Dryness Level Settings
If all your loads on all Auto Dry cycles are consistently not as dry
as you would like, you may change the preset Dryness Level
settings to increase the dryness. This change will affect all of your
Auto Dry cycles.
Your Dryness Level settings can be adjusted to adapt to different
installations, environmental conditions or personal preference.
There are 3 drying settings: 1 (factory preset dryness level),
2 (slightly drier clothes, approximately 15% more drying time),
and 3 (much drier clothes, approximately 30% more drying time).
1. The Dryness Level settings cannot be changed while the dryer
is running.
2. Press and hold the Dryness Level button for 5 seconds. The
dryer will beep, and “CF” will be displayed for 1 second
followed by the current drying setting.
3. To select a new drying setting, press the Dryness Level key
again until the desired drying setting is shown.
NOTE: While cycling through the settings, the current setting
will not flash, but the other settings will flash.
4. Press START to save the drying setting.
5. The drying setting you selected will become your new preset
drying setting for all Auto Dry cycles.
