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.
Stainless Steel
To clean stainless steel surfaces use a damp cloth with a mild, non-abrasive cleaner suitable for stainless steel
surfaces. Remove the cleaner residue and then dry with a clean cloth.
The stainless steel used to make the dryer drum provides the highest reliability available in a GE Appliances dryer.
If the dryer drum should be scratched or dented during normal use, the drum will not rust or corrode. These surface
blemishes will not affect the function or durability of the drum.
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.
Drum Light
The drum light is an LED light. Replacement must be done by a qualified technician.

G Care and Cleaning
Fabric Refresh Nozzle
Drips may occur from the nozzle and periodic cleaning may be required.
Use a damp wash cloth to wipe the liquid residue off the Nozzle and
below the nozzle. This should be done whenever liquid residue or lint
build up is noticed.
Lint Filter
Clean the lint filter before each use.
Remove by pulling straight up. 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.
Vacuum the lint from the dryer lint filter area if you notice a change in
dryer performance.
NEVER OPERATE THE DRYER WITHOUT ITS FILTER IN PLACE.
