Reversible Dryer Door

Your dryer is equipped with a reversible door. The door can be hinged on the right

the door.

 

To reduce risk of fire or serious injury to persons or property, comply

with the basic warnings listed in 

Important Safety Instructions

 and those listed

below.

Before cleaning the dryer interior, 

unplug the electrical power cord

 to avoid

electrical shock hazards.

Do not use any type spray cleanser when cleaning dryer interior. Hazardous
fumes or electrical shock could occur.

Inside

Clean the lint screen after every load. Lint build-up in the screen restricts air flow,
which causes longer drying times. The screen is located at the bottom of the door
opening. Remove by pulling straight up. Remove the lint and replace the screen.

       CAUTION - Risk of Fire

 - A clothes dryer produces combustible lint.  The dryer

must be connected to an exhaust outdoors.  Regularly inspect the outdoor
exhaust opening and remove any accumulation of lint around the outdoor
exhaust opening and in the surrounding area.

Occasionally a waxy build-up may form on the lint screen from using dryer-added
fabric softener sheets. To remove this build-up, wash the lint screen in warm,
soapy water. Dry thoroughly and replace. Do not operate the dryer without the
lint screen 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. These areas can collect lint and dust over time. An excessive
amount of lint build-up could result in inefficient drying and possible fire hazard.
