Sensor Dry : Dryer electronically sense laundry humidity and it automatically determines operation time based on the
dryness of the load and the selected program. t times, you can see sudden increase or decrease in operation time.
It happens because a sensor will detect laundry humidity within a certain period. Sudden change in operation time is not a
malfunction.
