Care and Cleaning of the Dryer.
The Exterior: Wipe or dust any spills or washing
compounds with a damp cloth. Dryer control panel
and finishes may be damaged by some laundry
pretreatment soil and stain remover products. Apply
these products away from the dryer. The fabric may
then be washed and dried normally. Damage to your
dryer caused by these products is not covered by your
warranty.
The Lint Filter: Clean the lint filter before each use.
Slide out the grid that covers the filter. Run your
fingers across the filter. A waxy buildup may form on
the lint filter from using dryer-added fabric softener
sheets. To remove this buildup, wash the lint screen
in warm, soapy water. Dry thoroughly and replace. Do
not operate the dryer without the lint filter and grid in
place. Have a qualified technician vacuum the lint from
the dryer once a year.
Dryer Interior and Duct: The interior of the appliance
and exhaust duct should be cleaned once a year by
qualified service personnel.
The Exhaust Duct: Inspect and clean the exhaust
ducting at least once a year to prevent clogging. A
partially clogged exhaust can lengthen the drying time.
Follow these steps:
1. Turn off electrical supply by disconnecting the plug
from the wall socket.
2. Disconnect the duct from the dryer.
3. Vacuum the duct with the hose attachment and
reconnect the duct.
The Exhaust Hood: Check with a mirror that the inside
flaps of the hood move freely when operating. Hake
sure that there is no wildlife (birds, insects, etc.) nesting
inside the duct or hood.
