When items are dry, remove the rack and store it in a convenient location. Care and Cleaning • 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. 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.

For satisfactory drying results, follow these suggestions provided by The Soap and Detergent Association. PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSES SOLUTIONS PREVENTIVE MEASURES Greasy, oily stains • Fabric softener sheet. • Rub fabric softener stains with bar soap. Rinse and rewash. • Add a few bath towels to small loads for proper tumbling. • Some “silk-like” fabrics should be air dried. • Use proper drying temperature. • Place fabric softener sheet on top of load before starting the dryer. Lint • Overloading. • Overdrying causes static electricity. • Lint screen not clean when cycle began. • Lint is attached to “pills.” • Reduce load size and rewash using liquid fabric softener in the final rinse. • Or, add a fabric softener sheet and tumble without heat. • Use lint brush or roller to remove lint. • Do not overload dryer. • Use fabric softener in washer or dryer to reduce static electricity. • Remove items when they are slightly damp to avoid overdrying. • Check that lint filter is clean and in place. Pilling (Fibers break off, ball up and cling to fabric.) • Overdrying. • Use a lint brush or shaver to remove pills. • Use fabric softener to lubricate fibers. • When ironing, use spray starch or fabric finish on collars and cuffs. • Turn items inside out to reduce abrasion. Shrinking • Temperature too high. • Overdrying. • Irreversible condition. • Follow fabric care label directions. • If shrinking is a concern, check load often. • Remove items while slightly damp and hang or lay flat to complete drying. • Block knits into shape. Wrinkling • Overloading. • Leaving items in dryer after cycle ends. • Reduce load size and tumble at medium or low heat for 5-10 minutes. • Remove items immediately. Hang or fold. • Do not overload dryer. • Remove items as soon as cycle ends. Do not store or place laundry products on top of dryer at any time. They can damage the finish or controls.
