CLEANING THE DRYER INTERIOR (cont.)
3. Tumble a load of clean clothes or towels to dry drum
OR
Use a microfiber cloth and hot water in a spray bottle
to clean the drum and a second microfiber towel to dry.
NOTE: Garments that contain unstable dyes, such as
denim blue jeans or brightly colored cotton items, may
discolor the rear of 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.
REMOVING ACCUMULATED LINT
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 appliance servicer or ventilation system cleaner.
From the Exhaust Vent
Lint should be removed every 2 years, or more often,
depending on dryer usage.
CLEANING THE LINT SCREEN
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. Open lint screen. Roll lint
off the screen with your fingers. Do not rinse or wash
screen to remove lint. Wet lint is hard to remove.
2. Close lint screen. Push the lint screen firmly back into
place.
IMPORTANT:
Do not run the dryer with the lint screen loose,
n
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,
n
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.
CLEANING THE LINT SCREEN (cont.)
To wash:
1. Roll lint off the screen with your fingers.
2. Wet both sides of lint screen with hot water.
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.
Reinstall screen in dryer.
VACATION, STORAGE, AND MOVING CARE
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."
Moving Care
For power supply cord-connected dryers:
1. Unplug the power supply cord.
2. Make sure leveling legs are secure in dryer base.
3. Use masking tape to secure dryer door.

Failure to do so can result in death or electrical shock.
For direct-wired dryers:
1. Disconnect power.
2. Disconnect wiring.
