Front Ventilation Grille
The dryer uses room temperature air to condense
moisture from the warmer air in the dryer. It is
important that dust does not accumulate around the
vents in the front grille to restrict the air flow.
Vacuum the front grille three or four times a year to
prevent dust accumulation.
Moisture Sensor
Two strips of metal just below the door, inside the
dryer, sense the moisture content of the laundry.
These can develop a coating from minerals in the
customer's water supply, from dryer sheets (which
are not recommended for use), or simply from
oxidation over an extended period of time. Any
coating on the strips will affect the sensor's ability to
accurately sense the moisture within the laundry. The
sensor strips should be wiped clean frequently.
