Cannot Change Wrinkle Away Time

Question:

How to solve the issue of not being able to change Wrinkle Away time?

 

Answer:

Identify the problem: Some DV431* units produced between April 22, 2011 and May 30, 2011 have user manuals with incorrect information about adjusting Wrinkle Away time.

Understand the issue: The misprinted manuals state that Wrinkle Away time can be changed, while in reality, it cannot be adjusted in this particular model.

Provide clarification: The correct information is that Wrinkle Away automatically releases wrinkles from items left in the dryer too long, using a combination of tumbling, heat, and small amounts of water sprayed into the drum.

Offer solution: Direct the customer to download the correct user manual from the website or request a hard copy (NCP) if within warranty. The correct manual's part number is DC68-03021A.
