WARN ING:
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using
this appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following:
• Unplug the dryer before cleaning
to avoid the risk of electric
shock. Failure to follow this warning
can cause serious injury, fire, electrical shock, or death.
• Never use harsh chemicals,
abrasive
cleaners,

mild, nonabrasive household detergent. Immediately
wipe off any spills with a soft, damp cloth.
IMPORTANT: Do not use methylated spirits, solvents,

Cleaning
Around
and Under the Dryer
Vacuum lint and dust from around the dryer and
underneath it regularly.
ALWAYS make sure the lint filter is clean before
every cycle. The Check Lint Screen Light on the control
panel will blink before every cycle to remind you.
NOTE: NEVER operate the dryer without the lint screen.
To remove lint between cycles:
1. Open the dryer door.
Maintaining
Ductwork
Vent ductwork should be checked for lint buildup
and cleaned at least once per year. If any noticeable
reduction in drying performance occurs, check ductwork
for obstructions and blockages. If the CHECK VENT
indicator illuminates, the exhaust system should be
checked immediately for damage or obstructions. The
CHECK VENT indicator signals a serious reduction in
exhaust airflow which will greatly reduce energy efficiency
and increase drying times. Damaged or restricted exhaust
systems are not covered by the dryer warranty. Damage
to the dryer that is caused by damaged, restricted, or
otherwise inadequate exhaust systems is not covered by
the dryer warranty.
2. Pull the lint screen straight up. Then:
3. Roll any lint off the screen with your fingers.
Periodic thorough
cleaning:
Some fabric softeners can buildup on the lint screen over
time. This buildup can restrict the airflow through the
screen reducing dryer efficiency and lengthening dry
times. If the screen looks dark or dirty when held up to the
light, follow these steps to clean:

1. Use hot soapy water and a stiff brush to clean the
screen.
2. Make sure the filter is completely dry before reinstaling
