Additional Features
This manual covers several different models. Your dryer may not
have all of the features described.
Towels
Select this setting to thoroughly dry extra heavy items such as
mattress pads and quilts or a load of towels. Set the temperature
selector, if available, to High Heat.
WRINKLE SHIELD ™ PLUS 30/90 Minute setting
When you are unable to remove a load from the dryer as soon as
it stops, wrinkles can form. WRINKLE SHIELD PLUS periodically
tumbles, rearranges and fluffs the load to avoid wrinkles.
Select WRINKLE SHIELD PLUS 30 Minute for 30 minutes of
WRINKLE SHIELD PLUS or 90 Minute for 90 minutes of
WRINKLE SHIELD PLUS. WRINKLE SHIELD PLUS periodically
tumbles the load without heat for the selected time.
Heavy Dry
Select this setting to evenly dry large or heavy items such as
thick cotton bath towels or robes. Set the Temperature selector, if
available, to High Heat.
DRYEL ® fabric care system
When using DRYEL fabric care, select the DRYEL cycle setting
and the DRYEL temperature setting. DRYEL fabric care, when
used in accordance with the manufacturer’s directions, has been
tested and approved for use in full-size dryers built by Whirlpool
Corporation.
Damp Dry
Select this setting to dry items to a damp level, or to dry items
that do not require an entire drying cycle. Damp dry items such
as jeans (to prevent stiffness) or cotton clothing (to make
pressing easier). Set the temperature selector, if available, to High
Heat.
TUMBLE PRESS ® setting
Select this setting to remove wrinkles from items such as clothing
packed in a suitcase or items wrinkled from being left in the dryer
too long. Set the temperature selector, if available, to Medium or
Low Heat depending on the fabrics in your load.
End of Cycle Signal
If your model has an End of Cycle Signal, the signal sounds
when a cycle is complete. If the WRINKLE SHIELD™ feature is
on, the signal sounds every few minutes. The signal stops when
you open the door or turn the Cycle Control knob to Off.
On some models
■ The End of Cycle Signal is fixed.
OR
■ The End of Cycle Signal is selectable. The signal will sound
only if the signal is set to On.
Drying Rack
The drying rack is useful for machine drying items you would not
necessarily want to tumble dry (for example, sweaters).
To use the drying rack
1. Slide drying rack over the bottom of the dryer door opening.
Push down to secure rack on frame.
2. Put the wet items on top of the rack. Leave space between
the items so air can reach all the surfaces. Close the door.
NOTE: Do not allow items to hang over the edge of the rack.
3. Select a timed drying cycle and temperature, or an air cycle.
Items containing foam, rubber, or plastic must be dried on a
clothesline or by using an air cycle.
4. Push the START button.
NOTE: You must remove rack for normal tumbling. Do not use
automatic cycles with the drying rack.
This chart shows examples of items that can be rack dried and
the suggested cycle, temperature setting and drying time. Actual
drying time will depend on the amount of moisture items hold.
*(Minutes) Reset cycle to complete drying, if needed.
