Care & Cleaning
● Before cleaning the dryer drum 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 lter 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 non-
colorfast 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 a qualifi ed servicer should
clean the dryer cabinet interior, lint screen
housing 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 di-
luted 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.
● When cleaning chrome parts, it is best to use
only a damp cloth.
● 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 lint screen after every load.
