Care and Cleaning

^

WARNING

IMPORTANT

Clean the lint filter after every load.

H IMPORTANT

Do not store or place laundry products
on top of dryer at any time. They can
damage the finish or controls.

FIRE HAZARD

A clothes dryer produces combustible lint. The dryer must be connected
to an outdoors exhaust. Regularly inspect the outdoor exhaust opening
and remove any accumulation of lint around the opening and in the
surrounding area.

^

WARNING

To reduce risk of fire or serious injury to persons or property, comply with
the basic warnings listed in the Important Safety Instructions and those
listed below.

<

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

avoid electrical shock hazards.

• Do not use any type of spray cleanser when cleaning the dryer interior.

Hazardous fumes or electrical shock could occur.

INSIDE

• Clean the lint filter after every load. Lint build-up on the filter restricts

air flow, which causes longer drying times. The filter is located at the
bottom of the door opening. Remove by pulling straight up. Remove the
lint and replace the filter.

• Occasionally a waxy build-up may form on the lint filter and/or mois­

ture sensing bars from using dryer-added fabric softener sheets. To

remove this build-up, wash the filter and bars with warm, soapy water.
Dry the filter thoroughly and replace. Do not operate the dryer without

the lint filter 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 inefficient drying and

possible fire hazard.

OUTSIDE

• Clean the cabinet with mild soap and water. Never use harsh, gritty or

abrasive cleansers.

• If the cabinet becomes stained, clean with diluted chlorine bleach (1 part

bleach to 8 parts water). Rinse several times with clear water.

• Remove glue residue remaining from tape or labels with a mixture of

warm water and mild detergent.

• When cleaning chrome parts use a window cleaner with ammonia or

mild soap and water.

• Before moving the dryer, place a strip of cardboard or thin flberboard

under the front leveling legs to prevent damage to the floor.

Instructions for Cleaning LCD Touch Screen

Cleaners can be used for heavily soiled screens. Ap­
proved cleaners are: glass cleaners or mild soap and
water. Apply first to a soft cloth and then wipe the
screen.

After using an approved cleaner, ensure all edges and
corners are dry after wiping.

DON’T

Spray cleaner directly to the screen

Apply excessive force to the screen during cleaning.

Use harsh solvents or abrasive cleaners on the screen.
Unapproved cleaners or applicators include: bleach,
drain cleaners, oven cleaners, strong acids, abrasive

towels, brushes, or steel wool.
