Sharp Edges – Although it is unnecessary to perform this type of maintenance, to reduce the risk
WARNING
of injury, use care when cleaning the condenser or evaporator coil fins.
Exterior
Immediately wipe off any spills. Wipe or dust spills or washing compounds with a damp cloth. Combo control panel
and finishes may be damaged by some laundry pretreatment and stain remover products. Apply these products
away from the Combo. The fabric may then be washed and dried normally. Damage to your Combo caused by these
products is not covered by your warranty. Do not hit surface with sharp objects.
Interior
Clean around the Combo's door opening, flexible gasket (including attached hoses) and door glass. These areas
should always be clean to ensure a watertight seal. It is recommended to wipe down the gasket thoroughly with a
disinfecting wipe to remove lint and other debris. A Self Clean Cycle can also be run for this purpose.
Filter Compartment
Periodically clean inside the filter compartment by
removing the filter frame. Use either a vacuum with
a crevice tool attachment or the Appliance Brush Set
(Part # PM14X10056). When cleaning, be careful not to
damage or bend the fins of the evaporator which is just
inside the area to the right of the opening.
Filters
The filter compartment contains a two-stage housing consisting of a Lint Filter and a Foam Filter. To access the
filters, slowly remove the filter frame from the Combo by pulling straight out and pressing on the tab to release.
Lint Filter: Clean the lint filter after every 5th dry cycle
by running your fingers across it. A helpful reminder will
show on the display. A waxy buildup may form on the
lint filter from using fabric softener sheets. To remove this
buildup, wash the lint filter in warm, soapy water. Dry
thoroughly and replace.
Release
Tab
Vacuum the lint from the filter frame and inside the filter opening if you notice a change in dryer performance.
NEVER OPERATE THE COMBO WITHOUT ITS FILTERS IN PLACE.
