Whats Included
  • Whirlpool 7.0 Cu. Ft. Electric Dryer with Moisture Sensor
  • Warranty

Q: What is the purpose of the Air Only Cycle, and how is it useful for delicate items?

A: The Air Only Cycle on the Whirlpool 7.0 Cu. Ft. Electric Dryer tumbles clothes without heat, making it ideal for delicate items that may be damaged by high temperatures. This cycle gently fluffs and refreshes clothes, helping to remove wrinkles and static without the risk of shrinkage or damage.

Q: What are the different time settings available on the Timed Dry option, and when might I find them useful?

A: The Timed Dry option on the Whirlpool 7.0 Cu. Ft. Electric Dryer with Moisture Sensor offers four time settings: 15, 30, 60, and 90 minutes. These settings are useful when you want to control the exact drying time for specific loads, such as when a damp load needs a little extra drying time or when using a drying rack.

Q: How many drying cycles does this dryer offer, and can you provide some examples of the different cycles available?

A: This Whirlpool dryer offers 11 distinct drying cycles. Some examples of these cycles include Timed Dry, which allows users to set the drying time for 15, 30, 60, or 90 minutes; Steam Refresh, which uses water and heat to release wrinkles without rewashing; Wrinkle Shield, which helps prevent wrinkles by tumbling clothes after the cycle ends; and Air Only, which fluffs and refreshes loads without using heat.

Q: Does this dryer have a time-remaining display, or how else can I monitor the progress of a drying cycle?

A: This Whirlpool dryer does not have a time-remaining display. However, it does have several features to help you monitor the progress of a drying cycle. The dryer has a moisture sensor that automatically stops the cycle when the load is dry, preventing overdrying. Additionally, the dryer has an end-of-cycle signal that will let you know when the cycle is finished.

Q: Does this dryer have adjustable temperature settings, and if so, how many options are there?

A: Yes, this Whirlpool dryer has adjustable temperature settings. There are four temperature options available: High, Medium, Low, and Air Only.

Q: Can you explain how the Wrinkle Shield Option works, and how long does it keep clothes tumbling after the cycle ends?

A: The Wrinkle Shield Option helps prevent wrinkles by tumbling clothes intermittently for up to 150 minutes after the drying cycle ends or until the dryer door is opened. This helps to keep clothes wrinkle-free and ready to wear.

Q: Does this dryer have a self-cleaning filter, or does it require regular manual cleaning?

A: The dryer does not have a self-cleaning filter and requires regular manual cleaning. The lint screen needs to be cleaned before or after each load, and the lint should be removed from the exhaust hood and the entire length of the vent system at least every 2 years.

Q: Is this dryer compatible with an app for remote control, or does it require manual operation?

A: This dryer does not have app-controlled features and requires manual operation. The product specifications clearly state "App-Controlled: false".
