SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS
FOR STEAM MODELS
Water Inlet Hose
Replace inlet hose and hose screen after 5 years of use to
reduce the risk of hose failure. Periodically inspect and replace
inlet hose if bulges, kinks, cuts, wear, or leaks are found.
When replacing your inlet hose, record the date of
replacement.
To Winterize the Dryer
1. Unplug dryer or disconnect power.
2. Shut off water faucet.
3. Disconnect water inlet hose from faucet and drain.
To Use the Dryer Again
1. Flush water pipes. Reconnect water inlet hose to faucet.
Turn on water faucet.
2. Plug in dryer or reconnect power as described in the
Installation Instructions.
NON-USE, STORAGE, AND MOVING CARE
Install and store your dryer where it will not freeze. Because
some water may stay in the hose, freezing can damage your
dryer. If storing or moving your dryer during freezing weather,
winterize it.
Non-Use or Storage Care

on vacation or not using your dryer for an extended period of
time, you should:
1. Unplug dryer or disconnect power.
2. Clean lint screen. See “Cleaning the Lint Screen.
3. Turn off the water supply to the dryer. This helps to avoid
unintended flooding (due to a water pressure surge) while
you are away.
