No Heat This option may only be used with Air Fluff and Timed Dry, in which items are tumbled

without heat.

C

F

Options

Damp Alert

This option causes the dryer to beep when clothes have dried to a damp level and the Damp Alert indicator

to

appear on the screen. Remove items that you wish to hang dry. This feature will only beep when the Damp Alert

option is selected. The dryer will continue to dry after the Damp Alert indicator is populated on the screen and

dryer beeps. Removing clothes and hanging them when they are damp can reduce the need to iron some items.

Extended Tumble

Minimizes wrinkles by adding approximately 2 hours of no-heat tumbling after clothes are dry.

The estimated time remaining display will show “END”.

The extended tumble time does not get added to the cycle time on the display.

Detangle

Activates alternating forward and reverse tumbling to reduce tangling, dry more evenly, and improve

drying times. Typical loads such as bed and bath mixed loads, where sheets, towels and pillow cases

are laundered together, benefit from this capability. When the dryer reverses direction, there will be a

slight pause and sound change. This is normal.

NOTE: Detangle is selected by default for Towels and Heavy Duty cycles.

eDry

Reduces total energy consumption of specific dryer cycles by adjusting certain heat settings.

NOTE: Cycle times will change when eDry is selected.

ENERGY STAR

®

models are tested on Cottons cycle with default settings to determine energy use rating of

this dryer. The eDry option will default to on for Cottons. Temperature settings on High and dryness level

setting on Dry are specifically designed for this cycle to reduce energy consumption. For optimal energy

savings, turn eDry on. For optimal drying times, turn eDry off. Energy savings will vary across loads and cycles.

The eDry selection can be used with Mixed Loads, Cottons, Heavy Duty, Towels, Casuals, Active

Wear and Delicates.

CONNECTING THE DRAIN HOSE

DRAINING WATER WITHOUT USING

THE WATER TANK

You can use the dryer without using the water tank by

following the procedures below.

CONNECTING THE DRAIN HOSE

The dryer can pump the condensed water outside of the

DRYER directly with drain hose provide.

The procedures to connect the drain hose are as follows.

1. Disconnect the drain hose A.

2. Connect the drain hose A to

the other hole.

3. Connect accessory hose B

(long drain hose) adjacent to

hose A.

• When connecting hose B, take care that the height of

the hose does not exceed 47” (120 cm).

• After connecting the drain hose, you can now directly

drain the condensed water to a standpipe or washstand.

CONNECTING THE DRAIN HOSE

(CONT.)

4. Over the edge of a wash basin: The drain hose must

be placed lower than 47” (120 cm) and higher than 30”

(76 cm). To keep the drain hose spout bent, use the

supplied plastic hose guide. Secure the guide to the

wall with a hook or to the tap with a piece of string to

prevent the drain hose from moving.

5. Assemble the drain hose and the hose guide and fix

them with the cable-tie.

Do not push the drain hose in the standpipe any further

than 4” (10 cm). Pushing the drain hose further in the

standpipe can cause leaking.
