Dryers - Can I do anything to help decrease wrinkles in my clothes?

Solution
If you have a Ready Steam Dryer, its advanced technology will remove wrinkles and freshen clothes.
You can also select the "Add Steam” option with many cycles. Depending on your model, you may want to use the “Wrinkle Release” or “Extended Tumble” options.
In general, for best results when drying your clothes, follow these simple steps:
- Do not overload your dryer. Clothes need room to tumble freely.
- Select the appropriate cycle setting and temperature based on your fabric care labels.
- Select More Dry for loads that need more time, and Less Dry if you want the load to be damp dry for ironing.
- Remove items from the dryer when the cycle is done. As soon as the cycle is complete, hang or fold your items.
- To remove wrinkles from clean, dry clothes, select “Instant Refresh” cycle (available on some models) or tumble them on low heat for 10 or 15 minutes.
- When using fabric softener / dryer sheets, please refer to your Complete Owner’s Guide (not recommended with steam options).
