Dryer cycles and settings

The PERMANENT PRESS Cycle helps

provide the special core that perma-

need...a period of heated drying

followed by a IO minute cool down.

The chart on page 4 suggests time

and temperature settings for different

kinds of loads.

The EX HEAVY, HEAVY, MEDIUM and

LIGHT cycles describe the loads

on page 4 tells what is meant by

EX HEAVY, HEAVY, MEDIUM and LIGHT

loads.

At each setting, the drye’r will run

about long enough to dry the load

described by the setting. Example:

The HEAVY Cycle is designed to be

long enough to dry a load of heavy

fabrics (towels, leans, corduroys, etc.)

when the Temperature Selector is set

on PERM’T PRESS/HEAVY HIGH.

Cool down times

In all cycles, the heat shuts off

before the dryer stops tumbling. This

cool down time helps:

make handling the hot load items

easier.

The PERMANENT PRESS Cycle has

10 minutes of cool down time at the

end of the cycle.

All other cycles have 5 minutes of

cooldown time.

If the load is not as dry as you want

set the dial more to the lett the next

time you dry that kind of load.

If the load is dryer than you want,

set the dial more to the right the next

time you dry that kind of load.
