Additional Features
WRINKLE SHIELD™ Feature
When you are unable to remove a load of clothes from the dryer
as soon as it stops, wrinkles can form. The WRINKLE SHIELD™
feature periodically tumbles, rearranges, and fluffs the load to help
keep wrinkles from forming.
■ Get up to 90 minutes of heat-free, periodic tumbling at the
end of a cycle. Cancel at any time by pressing the WRINKLE
SHIELD™ feature button.
■ During the WRINKLE SHIELD™ feature, you may continue the
option after opening and closing the dryer door by pushing
START.
NOTE: If you do not select the WRINKLE SHIELD™ feature, the
dryer stops after the cool down period.
Temperature
Temperature settings are used with the Manual Cycles. Press
TEMP ADJUST until the desired temperature setting illuminates.
Temperature modifiers cannot be used with the Auto Cycles.
Air Only
Use the Air Only modifier 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.
Type of Load Time*

Foam rubber - pillows, padded bras, stuffed toys 20 - 30
Plastic - Shower curtains, tablecloths 20 - 30

*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: Auto Cycles are not available when you are using the Air
Only setting.
End of Cycle Signal
The End of Cycle 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 END OF CYCLE SIGNAL to turn off the
signal.
Hold the END OF CYCLE SIGNAL for 3 seconds to lock or unlock
this control.
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.
