CARE AND CLEANING
Cleaning Instructions
• Before cleaning the dryer interior, unplug the electrical
power cord to avoid electrical shock hazards.
• Do not use any type spray cleanser when cleaning the dryer
interior. Hazardous fumes or electrical shock could occur.
INSIDE
• Clean the lint fi lter after every load. Lint build-up on the fi l-
ter restricts air fl ow, which causes longer drying times. The
fi lter is located at the bottom of the door opening. Remove
by pulling straight up. Remove the lint and replace the fi lter.
• Occasionally a waxy build-up may form on the lint fi lter
and/or moisture sensing bars from using dryer-added fabric
softener sheets. To remove this build-up, wash them with
warm, soapy water. Dry the fi lter thoroughly and replace.
Do not operate the dryer without the lint fi lter in place.
• If the dryer drum becomes stained from noncolorfast
fabrics, clean the drum with a damp cloth and a mild liquid
household cleanser. Remove cleanser residue before drying
the next load.
• Every 18 months an authorized servicer should clean the
dryer cabinet interior and exhaust duct. These areas can
collect lint and dust over time. An excessive amount of lint
build-up could result in ineffi cient drying and possible fi re
hazard.
OUTSIDE
• Clean the cabinet with mild soap and water. Never use
harsh, gritty or abrasive cleansers.
• If the cabinet becomes stained, clean with diluted chlorine
bleach (1 part bleach to 8 parts water). Rinse several
times with clear water.
• Remove glue residue from tape or labels with a mixture of
warm water and mild detergent. Or, touch residue with the
sticky side of the tape or label.
• Before moving the dryer, place a strip of cardboard or thin
fi berboard under the front leveling legs to prevent damage
to the fl oor.
IMPORTANT
Clean the lint fi lter after every load.
IMPORTANT
Do not store or place laundry products on top of dryer at
any time. They can damage the fi nish or controls.
