Check fhe Linf Filler Before Every
Load
Always make sure the lint filter is clean before starting a
new load; a clogged lint filter will increase drying times.
To clean, pull the lint filter straight up and roll any lint
off the filter with your fingers. Do not rinse or wash the
filter to remove lint. Push the lint filter firmly back into
place. See Regular Cleaning for more information.
Always ensure the lint filter is properly installed before
running the dryer. Running the dryer with a loose or
missing lint filter will damage the dryer and articles in
the dryer.

• Check all pockets to make sure that they are

• Combine large and small items in a load.

overload the dryer; clothes require room to tumble
dry properly.
• Close zippers, hooks, and drawstrings to prevent
these items from snagging or tangling on other
clothes.
