code is displayed.
Garments are still wrinkled at the end
of the STEAM REFRESH cycle.
There are no creases in garments after
the STEAM REFRESH cycle is used.
Water drips down the door during
steam cycles.
Drum does not turn during steam cycles.
Cannot see steam vapor at the
beginning of the cycle.
Odors are not completely removed at
the end of the STEAM REFRESH cycle.
Turn off the dryer and call for service.
Remove the lint from the filter before every load.
With the lint removed, hold the filter up to a light
to see if it is dirty or clogged. If it looks dirty,
follow the cleaning instructions on page 28. With
some loads that produce high amounts of lint, it
may be necessary to clean the filter during the cycle.
Some fabrics are lint producers (i.e., a fuzzy white
cotton towel) and should be dried separately from
clothes that are lint trappers (i.e., a pair of black
linen pants).
Use a fabric softener to reduce static electricity.
Be sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Overdrying a load of laundry can cause a buildup
of static electricity. Adjust settings and use a
shorter drying time, or use AUTO DRY cycles.
Divide extra large loads into smaller loads for drying.
Check pockets thoroughly before washing and
drying clothes.
Check for condensation on the inside of the door
during steam portion of the cycle. Steam is not
directly visible. This is normal.
Check steam feeder drawer:
(1) Make sure steam feeder is filled with water to
the MAX line.
(2) Make sure steam feeder is seated properly
and drawer is fully closed.
(3) Turn the dryer off, then turn back on and
restart the steam cycle.
DO NOT USE DISTILLED WATER - The water level
sensors in the steam generator will not work.
Steam feeder pump not working - call for service.
Load only one to five garments (or a single bulky
item). Do not mix fabric types.
STEAM REFRESH is most effective on 70/30
cotton/polyblends. Do not use on 100% cotton items.
This cycle is designed to remove wrinkles. If creases
are desired after STEAM REFRESH, the garments will
need to be ironed.
Steam is invisible. However, under some conditions,
the condensed fog may be seen, or condensation
will form on the inside of the door glass and may
be seen dripping down the glass.
The drum is turned off so that the steam vapor
remains in the drum. The drum will turn for only a few
seconds, once a minute.
Steam is released at different stages of the cycle
for each option. Steam cannot be seen, but
condensation may form on the inside of the door
when steam is being generated.
Some odors are difficult to remove. Fabrics containing
certain difficult odors or very strong odors may not refresh
well and should be washed or dry cleaned instead.
