SteamFresh uses the power of steam alone to
quickly reduce wrinkles and odor in fabrics. It
brings new life to wrinkled clothes that have been
stored for an extended time and makes heavily

number of items is shown in the display.
No other options need to be set.
Press the START/PAUSE button to start
the cycle.
After the SteamFresh cycle is complete,
the washer will tumble the clothes for up
to 30 minutes to prevent rewrinkling.
After removing clothes from the SteamFresh
cycle, they may feel slightly damp. Place
clothes on a hanger for at least 10 minutes to
allow them to dry.
The SteamFresh cycle is not recommended
for
use with 100% cotton clothing.
Remove stains from clothing before using the
SteamFresh cycle; the high heat could cause
stains to set permanently.
Do not use SteamFresh with the following items:
wool, blankets, leather jackets, silk, wet clothes,
lingerie, foam products, or electric blankets.
Best results are achieved when articles are of
similar size and fabric type. Do not overload.
Each cycle has preset settings that are selected
automatically. You may also customize the
settings using the cycle setting buttons. Press the
button for that setting until the indicator light for
the desired value is lit.

performance
at normal water heater settings.

type of load you are washing. Follow the fabric
care label for best results.
Warm rinses are regulated at approximately
86°F (30°0).
Warm rinses leave the loads drier than cold
rinses. Warm rinses can increase wrinkling.
In cold climates, a warm rinse makes the load
more comfortable to handle.
Cold rinses use less energy, and the rinse
temperature
depends on the cold water at the
faucet.
SPIN SPEED
The washer drum spins at up to 1,200 RPM. This
extracts more water from clothes,
reducing drying time and saving
energy.
Press the SPIN SPEED button until
the indicator light for the desired setting is lit.
Some fabrics, such as delicates, require a slower
spin speed.
The Drain & Spin cycle:
The Spin Speed button also activates the Drain

for example, if you want to remove clothes before
the cycle has ended.
