Wrinkle Guard II
When you are unable to remove a load from the dryer as soon as it stops, wrinkles can form. The Wrinkle Guard II feature periodically tumbles, rearranges and fluffs the load for up to 30 minutes without heat to help keep wrinkles from forming. Press the Wrinkle Guard ON button to enable the Wrinkle Guard II feature. A signal will sound periodically when the Wrinkle Guard II feature is on if the End of Cycle Signal is selected. The signal and the tumbling will end when you open the dryer door, or when you turn the Cycle Control knob to Off.

Lower the front legs to rest on the dryer opening.
