NON-USE, STORAGE, AND MOVING CARE
Steam models only: 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.
Non-Use or Storage Care
If you will be on vacation or not using your dryer for an
extended period of time, you should:
1. Unplug dryer or disconnect power.
2. Clean lint screen. See “Cleaning the Lint Screen.”
3. Turn off the water supply to the dryer. This helps to
avoid unintended ooding (due to a water pressure
surge) while you are away.
