When using Air Only • Check that coverings are securely stitched. • Shake and fluff pillows by hand periodically during the cycle. • Dry item completely. Foam rubber pillows are slow to dry. NOTE: Automatic Cycles are not available when using the Air Only setting. 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. Use of a fabric softener sheet is not recommended with steam cycles as it may cause temporary staining on the clothes.

WRINKLE SHIELD TM 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 TM 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 TM feature or opening the dryer door. For the Casual Cycle, the WRINKLE SHIELD TM feature is preset to "ON." The other cycles will retain the WRINKLE SHIELD TM 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.)
