Special Instructions for Steam Models
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.
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.
