15 minutes of no-heat tumbling after the clothes are dry.
If WRINKLE CARE is not ON, the dryer will stop once the timer reaches the WRINKLE

COTTONS, EASY CARE and DELICATES cycles. If you are using the CYCLE SIGNAL and you select the WRINKLE CARE option, a signal will sound at the end of the drying time and several times during the
WRINKLE CARE cycle. This will remind you that it is time to remove the clothes.
(appearance may vary)
This signal will sound just before the end of the cycle to remind you to remove the clothes. On some models, the signal sound level can be adjusted.
