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 . Make
sure that there is no wildlife (birds, insects, etc .) nesting
inside the duct or hood .
