Care and Cleaning

Before cleaning the dryer interior, unplug the electrical power cord to avoid

electrical shock hazards.
Do not use any type spray cleanser when cleaning the dryer interior. Haz-

ardous 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 noncolorfast 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 an authorized servicer should clean the dryer cabinet

interior 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.

To reduce risk of fi re or serious injury to persons or property,

comply with the basic warnings listed in the Important Safety Instructions and
those listed below.
