Steam

Adding this option to a wash cycle helps provide superior cleaning performance. Using steam gives fabrics the cleaning benefits of a very hot wash.Steam may not be clearly visible during steam cycles. This is normal. Too much steam could damage clothing.Do not use steam with delicate fabrics such as wool and silk, or easily discolored fabrics.Do not touch the door during steam cycles. The door surface can become very hot and can cause severe burns. Allow the door lock to release before opening the door.Do not attempt to override the door lock mechanism or reach into the washer during a steam cycle. Steam can cause severe burns.

Using the Pre-wash Option

This option adds a pre-wash (for about 15 - 17 minutes) for improved cleaning of heavily soiled or stained clothing.If you select Pre-wash after putting the detergent directly in the drum, the detergent may be washed away, reducing the washing performance. For best results, use Pre-wash with the ezDispense function.The manual dispenser cannot be used for pre-wash detergent dispensing.
