in the "INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS"
of this Owner's Manual.

fuel for a fire. Lint should be removed
every 2 to 3 years, or more often,
depending on dryer usage. Cleaning
should be done by a qualified service
person. Instructions for removing
accumulated lint can be found in the
Do-It-Yourself repair manual for Kenmore
dryers. To order this manual, please call
