Using the STEAM REFRESH cycle
The Steam Refresh cycle uses the power of steam to
quickly reduce wrinkles and odor in fabrics. It brings
new life to wrinkled clothes that have been stored for
an extended period of time, and it can make heavily
wrinkled clothes easier to iron. STEAM REFRESH can
also be used to help reduce odors in clothes, such as
clothes that were worn in a room where people had
been smoking. This cycle can refresh from one to fi ve
garments, or one bulky item such as a comforter. There
are three settings available. Use
3
for one to three
garments and
5
for four or fi ve garments. The
(big) setting should be used for bulky items. Best results
are achieved with 70/30 cotton/polyblend fabrics.
Using the STEAM SANITIZE Cycle
The STEAM SANITIZE cycle is ideal for sanitizing non-
washable items quickly and easily using only steam. This
cycle is recommended for use with cotton and polyester
materials only. (DO NOT use for urethane foam, down
feathers or delicate items.)

* Shirt: 70% cotton / 30% poly blend. Except especially delicate fabrics.
• When the lint fi lter or exhaust duct is clogged, steam options will not give proper results.
• For best results, load articles of similar size and fabric type. Do not overload.
NOTE:
• When an Auto Dry cycle is selected with the STATIC SHIELD or ACCELA STEAM option, a dry level of Less or Damp
cannot be selected.
• The STATIC SHIELD option may also be selected during Timed Dry cycles.
• After the steam option is selected in Timed Dry, the MORE TIME or LESS TIME buttons will change the steam time only.
• After pressing Start/Pause, the MORE TIME or LESS TIME buttons will be disabled.
Using the STATIC SHIELD Option
This option uses steam late in the drying cycle to reduce
the static electricity caused by dry fabrics rubbing
together. Change the steam time by pressing the MORE
TIME and LESS TIME buttons to display the approximate
number of articles in the load: 7, 9, 11, 14, 16 or 18.
NOTE: When STATIC SHIELD is added to auto dry
cycles, the DAMP DRY level cannot be selected.
ACCELA STEAM (MODEL 8156*/9156* ONLY)
ACCELA STEAM helps prevent the overdrying of clothes
