•  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. Hazardous fumes or electrical shock could occur.

•  Clean the lint fi lter after every load. Lint build-up on the 

fi lter restricts air fl ow, which causes longer drying times. 

The fi lter is located at the bottom of the door opening. Re-

move by pulling straight up. Remove the lint and replace 

the fi lter. 

•  Occasionally a waxy build-up may form on the lint fi lter 

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 fi lter thoroughly and 

replace. Do not operate the dryer without the lint fi lter 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 dry-

ing the next load.

•  Every 18 months an authorized servicer should clean the dry-

er cabinet interior and exhaust duct. These areas can collect 

lint and dust over time. An excessive amount of lint build-up 

could result in ineffi cient drying and possible fi re hazard.

•  Clean the cabinet with mild soap and water. Never use 

harsh, gritty or abrasive cleansers.

•  If the cabinet becomes stained, clean with diluted chlo-

rine bleach (1 part bleach to 8 parts water). Rinse several 

times with clear water.

•  Remove glue residue from tape or labels with a mixture of 

warm water and mild detergent. Or, touch residue with the 

sticky side of the tape or label.

•  When cleaning chrome parts use a window cleaner with 

ammonia or mild soap and water.

•  Before moving the dryer, place a strip of cardboard or thin 

fi berboard under the front leveling legs to prevent damage 

to the fl oor.

To reduce risk of fi re or serious injury to persons or property, 

comply with the basic warnings listed in the Important 

Safety Instructions and those listed below.

Do not store or place laundry products on top of 

dryer at any time. They can damage the fi nish or 

controls.

Clean the lint fi lter after every load.

A clothes dryer produces combustible lint. The 

dryer must be connected to an outdoors exhaust. 

Regularly inspect the outdoor exhaust opening 

and remove any accumulation of lint around the 

opening and in the surrounding area.
