REGULAR
CLEANING
Cleaning
the Exterior
Proper care of your dryer can extend its life. The outside
of the machine can be cleaned
with warm water and
a mild, nonabrasive
household detergent.
Immediately
wipe off any spills with a soft, damp cloth.
IMPORTANT:
Do not use cleaning
alcohols,
solvents, or
similar products.
NEVER use steel wool or abrasive cleansers because
they can damage
the surface.
Cleaning
the interior
Wipe
around the door opening
and seat with a soft,
damp cloth to prevent tint 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.
NEVER use steel wool or abrasive cleansers; they can
scratch or damage
the surface.
Cleaning
Around
and Under the Dryer
Vacuum lint and dust from around the dryer and
underneath
it regularly.
ALWAYS make sure the tint filter is clean before
every
cycle. The Check Lint Filter Light on the control panel
will blink before every cycle to remind you.
NOTE: NEVER operate the dryer without the lint filten
To remove
lint between
cycles:
Open the dryer door.
Putt the lint filter straight
up.
Roll any lint off the filter with your fingers.
Insert lint filter back into dryer.
Periodic thorough
cleaning:
Some fabric
softeners can build up on the lint filter over
time. This buildup
can restrict the airflow
through the
filter reducing
dryer efficiency
and lengthening
drying
times. After removing
lint, if the filter looks dark or dirty
when held up to the light, follow these steps to clean.
Cleaning
the Lint Filter
Lint
Fitt,
Use hot soapy water and a stiff brush to clean
the filter.
Make sure the filter is completely
dry before
reinstalling
it and using the dryer.
NOTE: NEVER operate the dryer with a wet lint filter.
Maintaining
Ductwark
Vent ductwork
should be checked for lint build up once
per month and cleaned
at least once per year. If any
noticeable
reduction
in airflow
or drying performance
occurs, immediately check the ductwork
for obstructions
and blockages.
Contact a qualified
technician
or service
provider.
