Using Your Dryer — Smart Operation
NOTE:
You must have successfully completed the “Connectivity Setup” section on pages 10 and 11 for the following features
to function. Verify that the Wi-Fi status indicator ( ) is illuminated. Check the Whirlpool™ app for additional dryer features,
including Delay Start.
The Download & Go™ option lets you select and send a
Specialty Cycle or My Cycle from the Whirlpool™ app directly
to your dryer. The indicator above Download & Go will illuminate.
Touch DOWNLOAD & GO to select the cycle. The Time/Status
display will show the estimated cycle time. Touch and hold the
START/PAUSE button for 3 seconds as in Step 7 to start the
dry cycle, or continue to set the dryer for Remote Start.
HELPFUL TIP:
The cycle will be remembered for future use
until a different cycle is downloaded to the dryer.
NOTE:
If the Download & Go button is touched without a
cycle ready for selection (with the indicator not lit), you will
hear an “Invalid Keypress” sound (if key activation sounds
are turned on).

Remote Start mode allows you to start your dryer remotely
from the Whirlpool™ app.
After preparing your laundry load and selecting your cycle
settings, touch and hold the DOWNLOAD & GO button for
3 seconds. The Remote Start status indicator ( ) and the
indicator above the Start/Pause button will begin blinking.
Touch and hold START/PAUSE to set the mode. The indicator
above Start/Pause will go out, and the Remote Start indicator
will be solidly lit.
When a Remote Start command is received from the app,
the dryer will start the cycle, causing the indicator above
Start/Pause to be lit (indicating running state). The Remote
Start indicator will remain lit.
HELPFUL TIP:
Make sure that your dryer remains closed and
the cycle is not adjusted until you start the cycle. Any interaction
with the dryer itself after a Remote Start has been set will
cancel the Remote Start. If the dryer needs to be paused
to add garments, the Remote Start will need to be reinitiated.
NOTE:
If no Wi-Fi connection is available, the Remote Start will
not be set. The Wi-Fi indicator ( ) will blink for 2 seconds, then
go out. If the dryer is Wi-Fi connected but the Whirlpool™ app
service is temporarily unavailable, Remote Start can be set.
