Check the Lint Filter
Clean the lint filter each time the dryer is used.
Always be sure the lint filter is in place.
WARNING
—
Do not run the dryer
with the lint screen loose, damaged, blocked or
missing. Doing so can cause overheating, damage
fabrics and be a fire hazard.
The lint screen is located inside
the dryer drum, on the back wall.
To clean:
1. Use the finger holes to pull
the lint screen straight out.
2. Lightly squeeze the body,
as shown while pulling the cover off.
3. ROLL lint off the screen with
your fingers.
Do not rinse or
wash the screen.
4. Replace the cover on the
body of the lint screen.
5. Before replacing the lint
screen, remove any lint from
the wire mesh on the back
wall (behind the lint screen).
6. Push the lint screen straight
back until it snaps into place.
Sort and Load the Clothes
Good sorting for the dryer begins at the washer.
Generally, if clothes are sorted right for washing,
they’re sorted right for drying. See the How to Sort
Clothes section. If you do mix various types of fabrics in your load,
set the controls for the lighter-weight fabrics and
remove when dry. Reset controls for the remaining
heavier fabrics.

The selector may be turned in either direction.
Start Button.
Press the Start button to start the dryer. (Opening
the door during operation stops the dryer. To
restart, close the door and press the Start button.)
