Interior Features

The FRIGIDAIRE FAQE7017KN dryer has 7 cycles, 12 options, 4 dryness levels and 5 temperature levels. In short, the electric dryer is highly customizable to the needs of the particular user. The 7 drying cycles cover the drying and care of the most common fabrics. The 12 options have additional fabric care features.

An electronic Moisture Sensor gauges the temperature level and cycle duration that will be required by a certain load based on the amount of moisture found in that load. For example, the sensor may detect that the load is not that wet, possibly because the garments have already been wrung dry. The appliance will then use a shorter cycle and a lower temperature if one of the automatic drying cycles will be chosen.

Included among the temperature levels is the Sanitize temperature level, the temperature level that has helped the FRIGIDAIRE FAQE7017KN earn an NSF certification. At this temperature level, the appliance kills 99.9% of the bacteria found in the garments. Drenched or only slightly damp, any load that requires proper germ-killing has to use the Sanitize temperature level.

The FRIGIDAIRE FAQE7017KN, no matter what the chosen option and cycle are, operates quietly. The user does not have to bear a lot of noise and vibration just because a particular load is

heavy. The silent operation is made possible by SilentDesign technology.
