DRYER CARE

Keep dryer area clear and free from items that would obstruct

the

flow of combustion

and ventilation

air.

Explosion Hazard

Keep flammable

materials

and vapors, such as

gasoline, away from dryer.

Place dryer at least 18 inches (460 ram) above the floor

for a garage installation.

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.

Every load cleaning

The lint screen is located in the door opening of the dryer. The

control panel has an indicator light to remind you to clean the lint

screen before each load. A screen blocked by lint can increase

drying time.

To clean

1. Pull the lint screen straight up. Roll lint off the screen with your

fingers. Do not rinse or wash screen to remove lint. Wet lint is

hard to remove.

3. Wet a nylon brush with hot water and liquid detergent. Scrub

lint screen with the brush to remove residue buildup.

4. Rinse screen with hot water.

5. Thoroughly dry lint screen with a clean towel. Replace screen

in dryer.

To clean dryer drum

1. Make a paste with powdered laundry detergent and very

warm water.

2. Apply paste to a soft cloth.

Apply a liquid, nonflammable household cleaner to the stained

area and rub with a soft cloth until all excess dye and stains

are removed.

3. Wipe drum thoroughly with a damp cloth.

4. 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 to

avoid transfer of dye.

2. Push the lint screen firmly back into place.

IM PORTANT:

•

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 the lint. See "Venting

Requirements."

As needed cleaning

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 while the screen

is in the dryer.

Clean the lint screen with a nylon brush every 6 months, or more

frequently, if it becomes clogged due to a residue buildup.

To wash

1. Roll lint off the screen with your fingers.

2. Wet both sides of lint screen with hot water.

From Inside the Dryer Cabinet

Lint should be removed every 2 years, or more often, depending

on dryer usage. Cleaning should be done by a qualified person.

From the Exhaust Vent

Lint should be removed every 2 years, or more often, depending

on dryer usage.

Install and store your dryer where it will not freeze. Because some

water may stay in the hoses, freezing can damage your dryer. If

storing or moving your dryer during freezing weather, winterize it.

Non-Use or Storage Care

Operate your dryer only when you are at home. If you will be on

vacation or not using your dryer for an extended period of time,

you should:

1. Unplug dryer or disconnect power.

2. Clean lint screen. See "Cleaning the Lint Screen."

3. Turn off the water supply to the dryer. This helps to avoid

unintended flooding (due to a water pressure surge) while you

are away.
