Cycle Guide – Steam Cycle (on some models)

Settings and options shown in

bold are default settings for that cycle.

Not all settings and options are available on each cycle.

Steam cycles are designed for use with dry loads to loosen wrinkles, reduce odors, and refresh fabrics.

Load Size Recommendations
For best results, follow the load size recommendations noted

for each cycle.

Small load: Fill the dryer drum with 3–4 items, not more

than 1/4 full.

Medium load: Fill the dryer drum up to about 1/2 full.

Large load: Fill the dryer drum up to about 3/4 full.

Do not pack tightly. Items need to tumble freely.

On some models, you may select the “With Steam” setting to add a short steam cycle after 60 minutes. This is available only with High and Medium

Drying Temperature settings.

Selecting the Drying Temperature

A High heat setting may be used for drying heavyweight items such as towels and work clothes.
A Low to Medium heat setting may be used for drying medium-weight items such as sheets, blouses, dresses, underwear,

permanent press fabrics, and some knits.
Use a no heat (air only) setting for foam, rubber, plastic, or heat-sensitive fabrics.
Line dry bonded or laminated fabrics.
NOTE: If you have questions about drying temperatures for various loads, refer to the care label directions.
