The "Dry" button activates/deactivates the drying function, and pressing it sequentially displays drying time in combination with the "Dry" program.

A "Delay" function allows users to set a delayed start time from 0.5 to 24 hours, increasing in half-hour increments. The Start/Pause button initiates, pauses, and cancels wash programs. The LED display shows remaining wash time and error messages.
