IMPORTANT NOTES ABOUT STEAM CYCLES

Add

Water

Before using a steam cycle, the steam feeder must be filled with water up to the MAX line; make sure that the drawer is completely closed. If the steam feeder runs out of water, the ADD WATER light will blink. If the light blinks, turn the dryer off, refill the feeder, and then restart the steam cycle.

When steam is used for the first time, it is possible that the steam feeder may not have enough water and the ADD WATER light will illuminate. Refill the feeder and restart the cycle.

•Only use water. Do not fill the steam feeder with other liquids, rinse agents, or detergents.

•Before moving the dryer, make sure that the steam feeder is empty.

•Do not use distilled water; the water level sensor in the steam generator will not work.

•Be careful not to spill water when filling and replacing the steam feeder.

•Wipe up any spilled water around the steam feeder and drawer before starting the dryer.

• During steam operation, the clothes will tumble for only a few seconds, once a minute.

WARNING:

Do not fill the steam feeder with liquids such as gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances. They give off vapors that could explode.

Do not fill the steam feeder with hot water (over 86°F/30°C).

Do not drink water from the steam feeder.
