care and cleaning
CLEAN FILTER
Clean the filter before every dryer use
Slide out the lint filter as shown.
Put your moistened fingers at one corner of the filter
and wipe in a sideways motion all the way across to
the other corner.
Do not operate the dryer without the filter in place.
Periodically, remove the grid (it snaps in and out) and
insert the suction hose adapter from your vacuum
cleaner into the opening. Do the same through the
rectangular opening at top or bottom of the door and
at the louvers on the cabinet front.
CONTROL PANEL
Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive substances. Do not spray cleaners directly on the panel.
The control panel finish may be damaged by some laundry pre-treatment soil and stain remover products.
Apply such products away from your dryer and wipe up any spills or overspray immediately.
STAINLESS STEEL TUMBLER
To clean the stainless steel tumbler, use a damp cloth with a mild, non-abrasive cleaner suitable for stainless
steel surfaces. Remove the cleaner residue and dry with a clean cloth.
DRYER EXTERIOR
Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive substances. Protect the surface from sharp objects.
DRYER EXHAUST
MAXIMIZE YOUR DRYER EFFICIENCY BY KEEPING THE EXHAUST DUCT CLEAN.
1. Disconnect or turn off the electrical power.
2. Disconnect the exhaust duct from dryer.
3. Clean exhaust duct from the end where dryer is
connected to the exhause hood using:
• the hose attachment of your vacuum cleaner
• a dust rag attached to a pole (for straight stretches) or a
drain cleaning wire (for less accessible areas).
4. Inspect the exhaust hood. To minimize resistance to
the exhaust air flow:
• the flap must move freely (you may check with a mirror);
• the flap should be fully open when the dryer in on;
• ensure that no wildlife (birds, insects,...) have nested
inside the duct.
