This cycle must be used in conjunction with a washing cycle unfortunately.

Select this option to add approximately 20 minutes
of tumbling in steam during the wash cycle. It is
recommended for heavily soiled loads to help enhance
the release of tough stains from fabrics after initial
agitation. It is available with all cycles except Delicates,
Quick Wash, Rinse & Spin and Spin Only.

If steam is selected, rinse temperatures will be
elevated.
If washer is paused during a steam wash cycle, the
door will remain locked due to higher temperature
in drum. DO NOT force open - it will unlock upon
cooling.
During a steam cycle you may notice steam exiting
from the rear vent of the washer - this is normal and
not cause for alarm.

I hope this helps!
