• 
Check all pockets to make sure that they are 
empty. Items such as clips, pens, coins, and 
keys can damage both your dryer and your 
clothes. Flammable objects such as lighters 
or matches could ignite, causing a fire. 
Failure to do so can result in fire, explosion,  
or death.
• 
Never dry clothes that have been exposed to 
oil, gasoline, or other flammable substances. 
Washing clothes will not completely remove 
oil residues. Failure to obey this warning can 
result in fire, explosion, or death.
•  Combine large and small items in a load. 
•  Damp clothes will expand as they dry. Do not 
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.

be dried with the same drying cycle.
Different fabrics have different care 
requirements, and some fabrics will dry  
more quickly than others.

CHECK THE LINT FILTER 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 “Care and 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 may damage the 
dryer and articles in the dryer.
