HOW TO USE
STEAM FEATURES
WARNING:
• Do not open the dryer door during Steam Cycles.
Steam can cause severe burns.
• Do not fill the steam feeder with gasoline, dry cleaning
solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances.
They give off vapors that could explode.
• Do not drink water from the steam feeder.
• Do not fill the steam feeder with hot water (over
86°F/30°C).
• Do not touch the steam nozzle in the drum during or
after the steam cycle.
IMPORTANT NOTES ABOUT STEAM FUNCTIONS:
• Steam may not be clearly visible during the steam
functions. This is normal.
• Do not use Steam Refresh with items such as wool,
wool blankets, leather jackets, silk, wet clothes, lingerie,
foam products, or electric blankets.
• For best results, load articles of similar size and fabric
type. Do not overload.
• If the home's exhaust system is restricted, the
performance of the steam functions will be reduced.
• During steam operation, the clothes will tumble for
only a few seconds, once a minute.
• The steam feeder must be filled with water up to the
MAX line. Otherwise, the ADD WATER light
may illuminate.
Using the STEAM REFRESH cycle
The STEAM REFRESH cycle uses the power of steam to
quickly reduce wrinkles and odor in fabrics. It brings
new life to wrinkled clothes that have been stored for
an extended period of time, and it can make heavily
wrinkled clothes easier to iron. STEAM REFRESH can
also be used to help reduce odors in clothes, such as
clothes that were worn in a room where people had
been smoking. This cycle can refresh from one to five
garments, or one bulky item such as a comforter. There
are three settings available. Use 3 for one to three
garments and 5 for four or five garments. The
(big) setting should be used for bulky items. Best results
are achieved with 70/30 cotton/polyblend fabrics.
NOTE: The STATIC SHIELD option can be used together
with the STEAM REFRESH cycle to help prevent
static electricity after the cycle.
Turn the dryer ON and select the STEAM REFRESH
1
cycle.
2
Select the STATIC SHIELD option, if desired.
3
The default number of garments is three. Press the
MORE TIME or LESS TIME button to adjust the load
size, as described above.
4
Press the START/PAUSE button to start the cycle.
Using the STATIC SHIELD option
This option uses steam late in the drying
cycle to reduce the static electricity
caused by dry fabrics rubbing together.
Change the steam time by pressing the
MORE TIME and LESS TIME buttons to display the
approximate number of articles in the load: 7, 9, 11, 14,
16 or 18.
NOTE: When STATIC SHIELD is added to auto dry
cycles, the LESS and DAMP dry level cannot
be selected.
Using the IRON READY option
Press and hold the STATIC SHIELD button
for three seconds to access the Iron Ready
function. The IRON READY option
provides uniform, properly dampened
fabrics for ironing, which can save time and make
ironing easier. Change the steam time by pressing the
MORE TIME or LESS TIME button, depending on the
number of garments in the load: 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5.
NOTE: After the STATIC SHIELD or IRON READY op-
tion is selected in timed dry cycles, the MORE TIME and
LESS TIME buttons will change the number of garments,
as described above. After the cycle has started, the
MORE TIME and LESS TIME buttons are disabled.
