INTRODUCTION
The new Whirlpool and Maytag Steam Dryers represents
industry-leading innovation with Advanced Moisture Sensing
using three sensors to track moisture and temperature,
adapting drying times to end the cycle at just the right time.
NEW COMPONENTS
Sleek Under Glass User Interface — the Whirlpool dryer features a new sleek under glass capacitive touch user interface that
asks "what's being dried" followed by "how you want to dry." First select a cycle from the "What to Dry" (Casuals, Jeans, Towels,
Delicates, ActiveWear, and Bulky Sheets) and then select the "How to Dry" (Normal, Gentle, Sanitize, Quick, Timed Dry, Steam
Refresh). This new and improved input will help the customer achieve the best combination cycle available for the type of items
being dried.
What to Dry
Extra Large 9.2 cu. ft. Capacity Drum — Our largest dryer
opening available, the Whirlpool and Maytag dryers have an
extra large drum capacity of 9.2 cu.ft. The drum's stainless
steel construction presents a smooth surface that helps deliver
ultimate gentleness, cradling clothes as they tumble.
