CLEANING THE LINT SCREEN
Every load cleaning
The lint screen is located on the back wall of the dryer. Remove
lint before each load. A screen blocked by lint can increase
drying time.
To clean
1. Pull out the lint screen and its cover.
To wash
1. Roll lint off the screen with your fingers. 2. Wet both sides of lint screen with hot water.
3. Wet a nylon brush with hot water and liquid detergent.
Scrub lint screen with the brush to remove residue buildup.
2. Separate the cover and the screen by squeezing the screen
and pulling on the cover at the same time.

3. Roll lint off the screen with your fingers. Do not rinse or wash
screen to remove lint. Wet lint is hard to remove.
4. Put the lint screen and cover back together and push firmly
back into place.
iMPORTANT:
[] Do not run the dryer with the lint screen loose, damaged,
blocked, or missing. Doing so can cause overheating and
damage to both the dryer and fabrics.
[] If lint falls off the screen into the dryer during removal, check
the exhaust hood and remove lint. See "Venting Requirements".
As needed cleanlng
Laundry detergent and fabric softener residue can build up on
the lint screen. This buildup can cause longer drying times for your
clothes, or cause the dryer to stop before your load is completely
dry. The screen is probably clogged if lint falls off the screen.
Clean the lint screen (as outlined following) every 6 months, or
more frequently if it becomes clogged due to a residue buildup.
4. Rinse screen with hot water.
5. Thoroughly dry lint screen with a clean towel. Replace screen
in dryer.
CLEANING THE DRYER INTERIOR
To dean dryer drum
1. Apply a liquid, nonflammable household cleaner to the stained
area and rub with a soft cloth until all excess dye is removed.
2. Wipe drum thoroughly with a damp cloth.
3. Tumble a load of clean cloths or towels to dry drum.
NOTE: Garments that contain unstable dyes, such as denim blue
jeans or brightly colored cotton items, may discolor the dryer
interior. These stains are not harmful to your dryer and will not
stain future loads of clothes. Dry unstable dye items inside out

VACATION, STORAGE, AND MOVING CARE
Install and store your Laundry Center where it will not freeze.
Because some water may stay in the hoses, freezing can damage
your Laundry Center. If storing or moving your Laundry Center
during freezing weather, winterize it.
Non=use or vacation care
Operate your Laundry Center only when you are at home.
If you will be on vacation or not using your Laundry Center
for an extended period of time, you should:
[] Unplug Laundry Center or disconnect power.
[] Turn off the water supply to the washer. This helps avoid
accidental flooding (due to a water pressure surge) while
you are away.
To winterize Laundry Center
L Shut off both water faucets.
2. Disconnect and drain water inlet hoses.
3. Put 1 qt (1 L) of R.V.-type antifreeze in the basket.
4. Run washer on a drain and spin setting for about 30 seconds
to mix the antifreeze and water.
5. Unplug Laundry Center or disconnect power.
