How Automatic Cycles Work
The AccelerCare TM function improves drying performance
with Auto Moisture Sensing Plus, which advances the cycle
as moisture is extracted from clothing. A thermistor
(electronic temperature sensor) and moisture sensing strips in
the dryer drum help measure the amount of moisture in the
clothes as they tumble. An electronic control determines the
load type to help save time, avoid overdrying, and increase
the accuracy of the end dryness level. After the first 5 minutes
of an automatic cycle, the estimated time display will adjust
based on the approximate load size, cycle, dryness level
selected and amount of moisture left in the clothes. When the
clothes have reached approximately 80% of the dryness level
selected, the estimated time display will adjust again,
showing the final drying time. The AccelerCare TM feature
takes the guesswork out of drying time and enhances fabric
care.

Cool Down tumbles the load without heat during the last few
minutes of all cycles. Cool Down makes the loads easier to
handle and reduces wrinkling. The length of the Cool Down
depends on the load size and dryness level.
Drying tips
• Follow care label directions when they are available.
• If desired, add a fabric softener sheet. Follow package
instructions.
• Remove the load from the dryer as soon as tumbling stops to
reduce wrinkling. This is especially important for permanent
press, knits and synthetic fabrics.
• Avoid drying heavy work clothes with lighter fabrics. This
could cause overdrying of lighter fabrics, leading to increased
shrinking or wrinkling.
• If you dry sheets in a mixed load or large items inthe Bulky
Items cycle, rearrange the load when the signal sounds. This
will aid in the drying process.
Cycle tips
• Dry most loads using the preset cycle settings.
• Refer to the Automatic or Manual Preset Cycle Settings chart
(in the "Cycles" section) for a guide to drying various loads.
