Regular Cleaning
Cleaning the Exterior
Proper care of your appliance can extend its life.
The outside of the appliance can be cleaned with
warm water and a mild, nonabrasive household
detergent. Immediately wipe off any spills with a
soft, damp cloth.
NOTE
• Do not use methylated spirits, solvents, or
similar products.
• Never use steel wool or abrasive cleansers; they
can damage the surface.
Cleaning the Interior
• Wipe around the door opening and seal with a
soft, damp cloth to prevent lint and dust buildup
that could damage the door seal.
• Clean the window with a soft cloth dampened
with warm water and a mild, nonabrasive
household detergent. Then wipe dry.
• The stainless steel drum can be cleaned with a
conventional stainless steel cleaner, used
according to the manufacturer’s specifications.
Never use steel wool or abrasive cleansers; they
may scratch or damage the surface.
Cleaning Around and Under the
Appliance
Vacuum lint and dust from around the dryer and
underneath it regularly.
Leaving the Door Open
After you finish using the appliance, leave the door
open overnight to allow air to circulate and dry the
drum. This helps prevent odors. In high-traffic
areas or where space is tight, use the magnetic
door stop to keep the door slightly ajar.
1 To use the provided door stop, slide it over
the edge of the open door so that the open
loop on the end surrounds the prongs of the
latch.
2 Close the door. The door stop should keep the
door slightly ajar, allowing air into the drum.
3 When not in use, the magnet on the door stop
can be used to store it on the side of the
product.
Cleaning the 3-Piece Lint Filter
CAUTION
• Refer to the following instructions for proper
cleaning of the lint filter. Failure to do so can
cause lint buildup on the condenser that can
affect the drying performance.
NOTE
• Cleaning the lint filter will reduce drying time
and energy consumption and prevent
unnecessary malfunctions.
• Unload all of the clothes from the appliance
before pulling out the lint filter.
• If you have pets or use dryer sheets, perform a
thorough cleaning of the lint filters more often,
using a vacuum cleaner or under running water.
• After cleaning the 3-piece lint filter, insert it back
into place. The appliance will not operate
without the lint filter in place.
a Inner Filter Assembly (2 Filters)
• Clean both inner filters after every cycle.
b Outer Filter
• Clean the outer filter after drying 10 times or
when the lint has accumulated on the outer
filter.
Cleaning the Inner Filter Assembly
1 Pull out the inner filter assembly from the
outer filter.
• Open the inner filter assembly by unfolding
it in the direction of the arrow.
• Remove the small filter at the base by
sliding it out of the grooves on each side.
