Features

The new GE dryer has the following features:
Large 7.0-cubic foot dryer drum
Drying Rack - Available on some models, for drying delicate items such as washable sweaters.
Drum Lamp
My Cycle selection saves a favorite cycle for future use.
Built-in service test mode. Specific dryer components can be operated. Error codes are recorded and
accessible on the control panel's 7-segment display.
Dual Thermistors - Thermistors are more sensitive to temperature changes and can relay the
information faster than thermostats. The dryer utilizes dual thermistors to monitor incoming air
temperature as well as air temperature leaving the drum. The sensors work together with the variable
heater and the blower to provide consistent, even heat.
Moisture Sensor - The moisture sensor allows the control to monitor the fabric for moisture content and
end the cycle at the desired moisture level.
Flush Door Handle
Reversible Door
UV Stabilizers - The control panel, control panel cover, and door outer panel have UV stabilizers to
prevent yellowing when exposed to sunlight.
The GE dryer can be installed on top of the GE
Front Load Washer. (Stacking kit supplied with
washer.)
Pedestal available at additional cost. White
(model number SBSD227FWW) and granite
(model number SBSD227FGG).

Power
Press to “wake up” the display. If the display is active, press to put the dryer in the standby mode.
NOTE: Pressing POWER does not disconnect the appliance from the power supply.
Dry Cycles
The dry cycle controls the length and tumble speed of the drying process. The chart below will
help you match the dry setting with the loads.
Sensor Cycles
COTTONS For cottons and most linens.
MIXED LOAD For loads consisting of cottons and poly-blends.
EASY CARE For wrinkle-free and permanent press items.
ACTIVE WEAR Clothing worn for active sports exercise and some casual wear. Fabrics include new technology finishes
and stretch fibers such as Spandex.
DELICATES For lingerie and special-care fabrics.
DRYEL™Designed for use with the DRYEL™“dry clean only” fabric care system. See product package for directions.
For questions or issues related to use and performance of DRYEL™, see the Website at: www.dryel.com.
SPEED DRY For small loads that are needed in a hurry, such as sports or school uniforms. Can also be used if the
previous cycle left some items damp, such as collars or waistbands.
Timed Dry Cycles
DEWRINKLE For removing wrinkles from items that are dry or slightly damp. This cycle is not recommended for
delicate fabrics.
WARM UP Provides 10 minutes of warming time to warm up clothes.
AIR FLUFF Use this feature to tumble items without heat.
My Cycle (on some models)
MY CYCLE Press to use, create or modify custom dry cycles.
Timed Dry
Use to set your own dry time. TIMED DRY is also recommended for small loads.
To use TIMED DRY:
1. Turn dry cycle dial to TIMED DRY.
2. Select the drying time by pressing the +and –buttons.
3. Select the DRY TEMP.
4. Close the door.
5. Press START.
Sensor Dry Level
The sensor continuously monitors the amount of moisture in the load. When the moisture in your
clothes reaches your selected dry level, the dryer will stop.
MORE DRY Use for heavy or mixed type of fabrics.
DRY Use for normal dryness level suitable for most loads. This is the preferred cycle
for energy saving.
LESS DRY Use for lighter fabric (ideal for ironing).
DAMP For leaving items partially damp.

Dry Temp
You can change the temperature of your dry cycle.
ANTI-BACTERIAL This option may only be used with COTTONS or MIXED LOAD cycles. This option reduces certain
types of bacteria by 99.9%, including: Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Klebsiella
pneumoniae*. The anti-bacterial process occurs when high heat is used during a portion of this
drying cycle.
NOTE: Do not use this cycle on delicate fabrics.
* The Anti-Bacterial Cycle is Certified by NSF International (formerly National Sanitation Foundation)
to NSF Protocol P154 Sanitization Performance of Residential Clothes Dryers.
HIGH For regular to heavy cottons.
MEDIUM For synthetics, blends and items labeled permanent press.
LOW For delicates, synthetics and items labeled Tumble Dry Low.
EXTRA LOW For lingerie and special-care fabrics.
NO HEAT Can only be used with TIMED DRY.
START
Press to start a dry cycle. If the dryer is running, press it once and it will pause the dryer.
Press it again to restart the dry cycle.
My Cycle (on some models)
Set up your favorite combination of settings and save them here for one touch recall.
These custom settings can be set while a cycle is in progress.
To store a MY CYCLE combination of settings:
1. Select your drying cycle.
2. Change DRY TEMP and SENSOR DRY LEVEL settings to fit your needs.
3. Select any drying OPTIONS you want.
4. Press and hold the pad for three seconds to store your selection. A beep will sound

approximately 60 minutes of no-heat
tumbling after clothes are dry. The beeper
will sound every 2 minutes to remind you
to remove the clothes. The ESTIMATED
TIME REMAINING display will show 00.
Damp Alert
This option causes the dryer to beep when
clothes have dried to a damp level. Remove
items that you wish to hang dry. The DAMP
ALERT will only beep when this option
is selected.
Removing clothes and hanging them when
they are damp can reduce the need to iron
some items.
Signal
Alerts you that the cycle is complete. The
beeper will continue to sound every two
minutes for the next 6 minutes, until the
clothes have been removed. The clothes
should be removed when the beeper goes
off so wrinkles don’t set in.
Press SIGNAL to select low, medium or high
volume, or to turn the beeper off.
Delay Start

As the cycle begins, you will see an initial
approximate total cycle time in the display.
Then lights will “race” in the display. This
means the dryer is continuously monitoring
the amount of moisture in the load. The
lights will continue until the dryer senses
a low level of moisture in the load. At that
point, the dryer will calculate and display
the approximate time remaining.
