TIPS

IMPORTANT

4.  Press the 

power

 

button and 

select the 

appropriate 

cycle and 

settings for 

each load.  

Add cycle 

options as 

desired.

• See 

Cycle Selection, Cycle Settings, and Cycle 

Options for detailed descriptions of cycle controls.

• See 

Settings Chart to determine which settings are 

available for each cycle.

• To provide the best care, not every setting or op-

tion is available with every cycle. If attempting to 

select an unavailable setting or option for any given 

cycle, a beep will be heard and the corresponding 

setting/option LED will not light. See 

Settings Chart 

for information of available options for each cycle 

by model.  

DO NOT

 over-dry. 

Over-drying can 

cause wrinkles, 

shrinkage, lint, and 

a build up of static 

electricity. 

5.  Close the 

dryer door 

and start 

the drying 

cycle. 

• To start the drying cycle, close the door and press 

the 

start/pause

 button.  

• To add an item to the dryer drum, press 

start/

pause

. The estimated remaining cycle time will be 

shown in the display. The LED above the 

start/

pause

 button will blink indicating that the cycle has 

been paused. Opening the door with a cycle run-

ning will also pause the cycle. Add the item, close 

the door and press 

start/pause

 again to resume 

the cycle.

• To change the cycle and/or settings once the cycle has 

begun (after the start button has been pressed), either 

rotate the knob to the reset position (12 o’clock posi-

tion) OR press the

 power

 button to turn off the unit 

and cancel the cycle. Press the 

power

 button again to 

turn on the unit.  Select the new cycle and/or settings, 

and press 

start/pause

 to begin. Changing a cycle se-

lection without canceling the current cycle 

WILL NOT

 

change the cycle.

NOTE

: There is an exception if the 

start

 button has 

been pressed to begin a cycle and the delay start 

function is activated and counting down. In this case, 

during the delay start countdown, the cycle can be 

paused and cycle settings can be changed. Then 

press 

start/pause

 again to resume the delay start 

countdown.
• To cancel a cycle, turn the knob to the reset 

position (12 o’clock position) OR press the

 power

 

button to turn off the unit. 

When drying a single 

large or bulky item, 

such as a comforter, 

pause the cycle part 

way through to turn 

the item “inside out” 

and maximize drying 

effectiveness. 

6.  Remove 

items when 

done.

• A signal will sound at the end of the cycle if the 

mute sound

 option is not activated.

• Immediately remove items when the cycle is  

completed and hang or fold.

7.  Clean the 

lint filter 

and empty 

the water 

container.

• See

 Care and Cleaning section of this instruction.

• CLEAN LINT

 will be displayed at the end of the 

cycle as a reminder to remove lint from filter.

• EMPTY WATER CONTAINER will be displayed at 

the end of the cycle as a reminder to completely 

drain the container. This message may also be 

illuminated during the cycle if the container 

becomes full.

ALWAYS CLEAN 

LINT FROM FILTER 

and DRAIN WATER 

CONTAINER at  

the end of each  

cycle (see warning 

on previous page).
