Tips for Getting the Best Performance
from Your Steam Dryer
Results may vary depending on fabric. 100% cotton
garments with wrinkle-free finish may yield better
results than those without. 100% cotton items may
require additional touching up after the Steam Cycle.
Use of fabric softener sheet is not recommended with
Steam Cycles. It may cause temporary staining on
clothes.
It is not recommended to use Steam Cycles for items that
have been starched. Wash any starched or new garments
prior to using a Steam Cycle.
The Quick Refresh Cycle is best for smoothing out
wrinkles and reducing odors from loads consisting of one
to four dry items of wrinkle-free cotton, cotton-polyester
blend, common knits, and synthetic garments.
The Enhanced Touch Up Cycle is best for smoothing out
wrinkles from clothes that have been left in the dryer too
long. For best results, do not overload the dryer.
The Quick Refresh Cycle time is set for 15 minutes and is
not adjustable. Under certain environmental or installation
conditions, you may experience under drying with the
Quick Refresh Cycle. Select Enhanced Touch Up Cycle
(20 min. default time) which can be customized to select
High Temperature and/or additional cycle time by pressing
the Timed Cycle Adjust More Time button.
Cycles
Select the drying cycle that matches the type of load you are
drying. See Automatic Preset or Manual Preset Cycle Settings
chart.
Steam models
Non-Steam models
Cycle Control knob
Automatic Cycles
Automatic Cycles allow you to match the cycle to the load you are
drying. See the following Automatic Preset Cycle Settings chart.
Each cycle dries certain fabrics at the recommended temperature.
A sensor detects the moisture in th
e load and automatically
adjusts the drying time for optimal drying.
Sanitize
Use this cycle for items such as towels, bedding, children’s
c
lothing, or other items needing to be sanitized. This cycle is
designed to eliminate 99.9% of 3 common infectious bacteria.
This cycle should be run to completion to ensure sanitization.
For best results, do not interrupt cycle.

Additional Features
Drum Light
When pressed during a cycle, the Drum Light turns on and will
remain on until pressed again, the door is opened and closed, or
the door is left open for 20 minutes.
WRINKLE SHIELD™ Feature
When you are unable to remove a load of clothes from the dryer
as soon as it stops, wrinkles can form. The WRINKLE SHIELD™
feature periodically tumbles, rearranges, and fluffs the load to help
keep wrinkles from forming.
Get up to 140 minutes of heat-free, periodic tumbling at the
end of a cycle. Turn off at any time by pressing the WRINKLE
SHIELD™ feature or opening the dryer door.
For the Casual Cycle, the WRINKLE SHIELD™ feature is
preset to “ON.” The other cycles will retain the WRINKLE
SHIELD™ feature setting. (The Wrinkle Shield feature is preset
to “ON” for the Casual Cycle. If selected for other cycles, it will
remain “ON” the next time that cycle is selected.)

Damp Dry Signal
On some models, the Damp Dry Signal may be selected to alert
you that your clothes are approximately 80% dry. This is useful
when you want to remove lightweight items in a mixed load to
avoid overdrying or remove partially dry items that may need
ironing.
The DAMP DRY SIGNAL is useful when drying bedsheets/linens in
a mixed load. When the signal goes off, open the door to stop the
dryer, rearrange the load inside the dryer, close the door and
restart the dryer to finish the drying cycle. Rearranging the load
will aid in the drying process.
NOTE: The Damp Dry Signal is available only with the Automatic
Cycles. The Damp Dry Signal is not a selectable option for the
Sanitize cycle.
Cycle Signal
The End of Cycle Signal produces an audible sound when the
drying cycle is finished.
Press until the desired volume (Loud, Soft, or Off) glows green.
NOTE: When the WRINKLE SHIELD™ feature is selected and the
End of Cycle Signal is on, an audible sound will be emitted every
5 minutes until the clothes are removed, or the WRINKLE
SHIELD™ feature is finished.
Button Sound
You can change the volume of the sound of the beeps. Press until
the desired volume (Loud, Soft, or Off) glows green. The Power
and Cancel buttons will still beep softly even when the Button
Sound volume is set to Off.

DRYER CARE
Cleaning the Dryer Location
Keep dryer area clear and free from items that would obstruct the
flow of combustion and ventilation air.
Cleaning the Lint Screen
Every load cleaning
The lint screen is located in the door opening of the dryer. The
control panel has an indicator light to remind you to clean the lint
screen before each load. A screen blocked by lint can increase
drying time.
To clean
1. P
ull the lint screen straight up. Roll lint off the screen with your
fingers. Do not rinse or wash screen to remove lint. Wet lint is
hard to remove.
2. Push the lint screen firmly back into place.
IMPORTANT:
Do not run the dryer with the lint screen loose, damaged,
blocked, or missing. Doing so can cause overheating and
damage to both the dryer and fabrics.
If lint falls off the screen into the dryer during removal, check
the exhaust hood and remove the lint. See “Venting
Requirements.”
As needed cleaning
Laundry detergent and fabric softener residue can build up on the
lint screen. This buildup can cause longer drying times for your
clothes, or cause the dryer to stop before your load is completely
dry. The screen is probably clogged if lint falls off while the screen
is in the dryer.
Clean the lint screen with a nylon brus
h every 6 months, or more
frequently, if it becomes clogged due to a residue buildup.
To wash
1. Roll
lint off the screen with your fingers.
2. W
et both sides of lint screen with hot water.
3. W
et a nylon brush with hot water and liquid detergent. Scrub
lint screen with the brush to remove residue buildup.
4. Rinse screen with hot water.
5. Thoroughly dry lint screen with a clean towel. Replace screen
in dryer.
Cleaning the Dryer Interior
To clean dryer drum
1. Make a paste with powdered laundry detergent and very
warm water.
2. Apply paste to
a soft cloth.
OR
Apply a liquid, nonflammable househ
old cleaner to the stained
area and rub with a soft cloth until all excess dye and stains
are removed.
3. Wip
e drum thoroughly with a damp cloth.
4. T
umble a load of clean cloths or towels to dry drum.
NOTE: Garments that contain unstable dyes, such as denim blue
jeans or brightly colored cotton items, may discolor the dryer
interior. These stains are not harmful to your dryer and will not
stain future loads of clothes. Dry unstable dye items inside out to
avoid transfer of dye.
Removing Accumulated Lint
From Inside the Dryer Cabinet
Lint should be removed every 2 years, or more often, depending
on dryer usage. Cleaning should be done by a qualified person.
From the Exhaust Vent
Lint should be removed every 2 years, or more often, depending
on dryer usage.
Vacation, Storage, and Moving Care
Install and store your dryer where it will not freeze. Because some
water may stay in the hoses, freezing can damage your dryer. If
storing or moving your dryer during freezing weather, winterize it.
Non-Use or Storage Care
Operate your dryer only when you are at home. If you will be on
vacation or not using your dryer for an extended period of time,
you should:
1. Unplug dry
er or disconnect power.
2. Clea
n lint screen. See “Cleaning the Lint Screen.”
3. Steam models only: Turn off the water supply to the dryer. This
helps to avoid unintended flooding (due to a water pressure
surge) while you are away.
11
Moving care

Dryer Results
Clothes are not drying satisfactorily, drying times are too
long, or load is too hot
Is the lint screen clogged with lint?
Lint screen should be cleaned before each load.
Has the Air Only temperature setting been selected?
Select the right temperature for the types of garments being
dried. See “Additional Features.”
Is the load too large and heavy to dry quickly?
Separate the load to tumble freely.
Are clothes coming out of the Refresh cycle with damp or
wet spots?
Under certain environmental or installation co
nditions you may
experience underdrying. Select the Enhanced Touch Up cycle
(20 min. default time), which can be customized by selecting
High temperature and/or additional cycle time by pressing the
Dry Time up button.
WARNING
Fire Hazard
Use a heavy metal vent.
Do not use a plastic vent.
Do not use a metal foil vent.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death
or re.
Is the exhaust vent or outside exhaust hood clogged with
lint, restricting air movement?
Run the dryer for 5-10 minutes. Hold your hand under the
out
side exhaust hood to check air movement. If you do not
feel air movement, clean exhaust system of lint or replace
exhaust vent with heavy metal or flexible metal vent. See the
Installation Instructions.
Are fabric softener sheets blocking the grille?
Use only one fabric softener sheet, and use it only once.
Is the exhaust vent the correct length?
Check that the exhaust vent is not too long or has too many
tur
ns. Long venting will increase drying times. See the
Installation Instructions.
13
Is the exhaust vent diameter the correct size?
Use 4" (102 mm) diameter vent material.
Is the dryer located in a room with temperature below 45ºF
(7ºC)?
Proper operation of dryer cycles requires temperatures above
45ºF (7ºC).
Is the dryer located in a closet?
Closet doors must have ventila
tion openings at the top and
bottom of the door. The front of the dryer requires a minimum
of 1" (25 mm) of airspace, and, for most installations, the rear
of the dryer requires 5" (127 mm). See the Installation
I
nstructions.
Cycle time too short
WARNING
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install dryer.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
Is the automatic cycle ending early?
The load may not be contacting the sensor strips. Level the
dryer
.
Change the dryness level sett
ing on Automatic Cycles.
Increasing or decreasing the dryness level will change the
amount of drying time in a cycle.
Lint on load
Is the lint screen clogged?
Clean lint screen. Check for air movement.
Stains on load or drum
Was dryer fabric softener properly used?
Add dryer fabric softener sheets at the begi
nning of the cycle.
Fabric softener sheets added to a partially dried load can
stain your garments. Do not use fabric softener sheets with
ste
am cycles.
Drum stains are caused by dyes in clothing (usually blue
jean
s). These will not transfer to other clothing.
Loads are wrinkled
Was the load removed from dryer at the end of the cycle?
Select Enhanced Touch Up Cycle to
tumble the load with
water and heat. This cycle is best for smoothing out wrinkles
and reducing odors from loads consisting of wrinkle-free
cotton, cotton polyester blends, common knits and synthetic
garments.
NOTE: R
efer to garment care label instructions. Dry clean only
garments are not recommended.
Loads are still wrinkled following Steam Cycle?
Make sure water is connected to the dryer. Check that water
i
nlet hose is connected to both the faucet and dryer’s water
inlet valve. Check that the water supply is turned on.
Was the dryer overloaded?
Dry smaller loads that can tumble fr
eely. Smaller loads of 1-4
garments yield best results with Quick Refresh Cycle. Results
may also vary depending on fabric type. This cycle is best for
reducing wrinkles and odors from loads consisting of wrinkle-
free cotton, cotton polyester blends, common knits and
synthetics.
Odors
Have you recently been painting, staining, or varnishing in
the area where your dryer is located?
If so, ventilate the area. When the odors or fumes are gone
from the area, rewash and dry the clothing.
Is water connected to the dryer?
Check that water inlet hose is conn
ected to both the faucet
and dryer’s water inlet valve. C
heck that the water supply is
turned on.
To remove odors left in garments after wearing, select Quick
Refresh for small loads of 1-4 garments. This cycle is best for
reducing wrinkles and odors from loads consisting of wrinkle-
free cotton, cotton polyester blends, common knits, and
synthetics.
