Care and Cleaning

- FIRE HAZARD - A clothes
dryer produces combustible lint. The dryer
must be connected to an outdoors exhaust.
Regularly inspect the outdoor exhaust open-
ing and remove any accumulation of lint
around the opening and in the surrounding
area.
Clean the lint filter after
every load.
DRYING RACK (some models)
Use the drying rack to dry items which should not be tumble
dried. Insert the rack into the dryer drum, resting the back
support on the moisture sensor bars and the front legs on the
air grill.
moisture sensing
bars
Place items to be dried on top of the rack, leaving space
between items and not allowing them to hang over the sides
or through the holes. The weight should not exceed 10 lbs
(4.5 kg). Select the air (no heat) setting for items containing
plastic, foam rubber, rubber-like materials, feathers or down.
When items are dry, remove the rack and store it in a conve-
nient location.
To reduce risk of fire or serious injury to persons or property,
comply with the basic warnings listed in the Important Safety Instructions and
those listed below.
• Before cleaning the dryer interior, unplug the electrical power cord to avoid
electrical shock hazards.
• Do not use any type spray cleanser when cleaning the dryer interior. Haz-
ardous fumes or electrical shock could occur.
INSIDE
• Clean the lint filter after every load. Lint build-up on the filter restricts air
flow, which causes longer drying times. The filter is located at the bottom
of the door opening. Remove by pulling straight up. Remove the lint and
replace the filter.
• Occasionally a waxy build-up may form on the lint filter and/or moisture
sensing bars from using dryer-added fabric softener sheets. To remove this
build-up, wash them with warm, soapy water. Dry the filter thoroughly and
replace. Do not operate the dryer without the lint filter in place.
• If the dryer drum becomes stained from noncolorfast fabrics, clean the
drum with a damp cloth and a mild liquid household cleanser. Remove
cleanser residue before drying the next load.
• Every 18 months an authorized servicer should clean the dryer cabinet
interior and exhaust duct. These areas can collect lint and dust over time.
An excessive amount of lint build-up could result in inefficient drying and
possible fire hazard.
