2. Put wet items on top of rack, leaving space between items. 

Do not allow items to hang over the edge of the rack. Close 
the door.

3. Select a timed drying cycle and temperature, or an air cycle. 

Items containing foam, rubber or plastic must be dried on a 
clothesline or by using an air cycle. Refer to the following 
table.

4. Start the dryer. Reset cycle to complete drying, if needed. 

DRYER CARE

Cleaning the Dryer Location

Keep dryer area clear and free from items that would obstruct the 
flow of combustion and ventilation air.

Cleaning the Lint Screen

Clean lint screen before each load. A screen blocked by lint can 
increase drying time.
IMPORTANT:

Do not run the dryer with the lint screen loose, damaged, 
blocked or missing. Doing so can cause overheating and 
damage to both the dryer and fabrics.

If lint falls off the screen into the dryer during removal, check 
the exhaust hood and remove the lint. 

Every Load Cleaning

Style 1:

1. The lint screen is located on top of the dryer. Pull the lint 

screen toward you. Roll lint off the screen with your fingers. 
Do not rinse or wash screen to remove lint. Wet lint is hard to 
remove.

2. Push the lint screen firmly back into place.

Style 2:

1. The lint screen is located in the door of the dryer. Pull the lint 

screen straight up. Roll lint off the screen with your fingers. Do 
not rinse or wash screen to remove lint. Wet lint is hard to 
remove.

2. Push the lint screen firmly back into place.

As Needed Cleaning

1. Roll lint off the screen with your fingers.
2. Wet both sides of lint screen with hot water.
3. Wet a nylon brush with hot water and liquid detergent. Scrub 

lint screen with the brush to remove residue buildup.

4. Rinse screen with hot water.
5. Thoroughly dry lint screen with a clean towel. Replace screen 

in dryer.

Cleaning the Dryer Interior

1. Apply a liquid, nonflammable household cleaner to the stained 

area of the drum and rub with a soft cloth until stain is 
removed.

2. Wipe drum thoroughly with a damp cloth.
3. Tumble a load of clean cloths or towels to dry the drum.
NOTE: Garments that contain unstable dyes, such as denim blue 
jeans or brightly colored cotton items, may discolor the dryer 
interior. These stains are not harmful to your dryer and will not 
stain future loads of clothes. Dry unstable dye items inside out to 
avoid transfer of dye.

Removing Accumulated Lint 

From Inside the Dryer Cabinet

Lint should be removed every 2 years, or more often, depending 
on dryer usage. Cleaning should be done by a qualified person. 

From Inside the Exhaust Vent
