check the exhaust hood and remove the lint. See “Venting
Requirements” in the Installation Instructions.
Q Clean space where lint screen
is located, as needed.
Using a
vacuum, gently remove any lint
that has accumulated outside
of the lint screen.
As needed cleaning
Laundry detergent and fabric softener residue can build up
on the lint screen. This buildup can cause longer drying times
for your clothes or cause the dryer to stop before your load
is completely dry. The screen is probably clogged if lint falls

Clean the lint screen with a nylon brush every 6 months,
or more frequently, if it becomes clogged due to a residue
buildup.
