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 heat setting and cycle time are not
adjustable for the Quick Refresh Cycle, but can 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.

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.

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.)
