Auto Dry cycles take the guesswork out of drying
time. The load will automatically be dried at the
selected temperature to the desired dryness level.
The dryer senses the moisture level of the load as
ittumbles throughheated air. Auto Drycycles save
time and energy and protect fabrics.
When the load has reached the selected dryness
level, it will continue to tumble, unheated, during a
CoolDown period.Thishelpsreduce wrinkling and
makes items easier to handle during unloading.
Drying time varies depending on size and damp-
ness of load and fabric type. Room temperature
andhumidity, typeof installationandelectrical volt-
age or gas pressure can also affect drying time.

•The Estimated Drying time for the cycle se-
lected will be displayed for approximately 5

ingTime foryour specificload has been deter-
