Interior
The drum is rust resistant. However, colored fabrics which lose color or bleed in the washer may
cause discoloration of the dryer drum. We recommend that the dryer drum be cleaned with a
cloth using a detergent and water paste or a mild abrasive, such as Soft Scrub TM. Complete
cleaning by thoroughly wiping the drum with a moist cloth. Then tumble dry several wet rags or
old towels for 20 to 30 minutes before using the dryer normally.

surface with sharp objects. Dryer control panel and finishes may be damaged by some laundry
pretreatment soil and stair] remover products if such products are sprayed or] or have direct
contact with the dryer.

machine's control panel as well as any of its plastic parts. Damage to your dryer caused by pre
treatment products will not be covered by your warranty.

flammable liquid cleaner) and wipe over the stair] with a soft cloth. Then tumble old towels for

Lint Filter
The lint filter will need to be cleaned before each time you use
the dryer. It is easier to remove the lint when your fingers are
moistened. A lint filter that is clear] ensures your clothes will remain
lint free and your dryer will operate at maximum efficiency.
Regularly inspect the outdoor exhaust opening. Remove any
accumulated lint from this area and any surrounding areas.
