What To Dry and How To Dry? for better fabric care and energy savings.
By answering these questions, you can achieve the most energy savings and enhanced fabric care from your dryer. Using these
automatic cycles, the drying air temperature and moisture levels are sensed in the load. This sensing process occurs throughout
the entire drying cycle and turns off once the load reaches your selected dryness level. Using a dryness level between "Less" and
"More" provides the optimal energy savings.
If Timed Dry is your answer, the dryer runs for the amount of time you select, which sometimes results in shrinkage, wrinkling,
and static due to overdrying. Use Timed Dry for the occasional damp load that needs a little more drying time or when using the
drying rack.
Tips for getting the best performance from your steam dryer
Results may vary depending on fabric. 100% cotton
n
garments with wrinkle-free finish may yield better results
than those without. 100% cotton items may require
additional touching up after cycles that use steam.
Use of fabric softener sheet is not recommended with
n
cycles that use steam. It may cause temporary staining
on clothes.
Cycles that use steam are not recommended for items that
n
have been starched. Wash any starched or new garments
prior to using a cycle that uses steam.

wrinkle-free cotton, cotton-polyester blend, common knits,
