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.

damp cloth to prevent lint and dust buildup that could

warm water and a mild, nonabrasive household

the manufacturer’s specifications.
