Dryer Care - Inglis IFR82000 Use & Care Manual

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 (46 cm) above the floor
for a garage installation.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
IMPORTANT:
• 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.
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 the screen.
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 the 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.
Every load cleaning
The lint screen is located in the door opening of the dryer. Clean
the lint screen before each load. A screen blocked by lint can
increase drying time.
To clean
1. Open the door and pull the lint screen straight up.
2. Open lint screen.
3. Roll lint off the screen with your fingers. Do not rinse or wash
screen to remove lint. Wet lint is hard to remove.
4. Close lint screen. Push the lint screen firmly back into place
and close the door.
4. Rinse with hot water.
5. Thoroughly dry lint screen with a clean towel. Replace in
dryer.

1. Make a paste with powdered laundry detergent and very
warm water.
2. Apply paste to a soft cloth.
OR
Apply a liquid, nonflammable household cleaner to the
stained area and rub with a soft cloth until all excess dye is
