Steam Cycles
In these cycles, a small amount of water is sprayed into the dryer
drum after several minutes of tumbling with heat. The STEAM
Status Light will come on while the water is sprayed into the drum.
The dryer will continue to tumble at Medium heat for the duration
of the cycle. The Steam Cycles include Quick Refresh and
Enhanced Touch Up. The cycle time is adjustable for the Quick
Refresh Cycle based on the Number of Garments selected. The
heat setting and cycle time may be adjusted for the Enhanced
Touch Up Cycle.
NOTE:
Results may vary depending on fabric. 100% cotton
garments with wrinkle-free finish may yield better results than
those without.
Use of a fabric softener sheet is not recommended with steam
cycles as it may cause temporary staining on the clothes.
