Care & Cleaning
Control Panel
Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive
substances.
Tumbler
Remove any stains such as crayon, ink pen or fabric
dye from new items (such as towels or jeans) with an
all-purpose cleaner. Then tumble old towels or rags to
remove any excess stain or cleaning substance. Once
these steps are done, stains may still be visible, but
should not transfer to subsequent loads.
Cabinet
Wipe off any marks with soap and water. Use an
appliance wax once a year if desired.
Dryer Exhaust System
Inspect and clean once a year to maintain optimum
performance. The outside exhaust hood should be
cleaned more frequently to ensure proper operation.
(Refer to the Installation Instructions for more
information.)
LAUNDERING TIPS

• Be sure the item is thoroughly dry before using or storing.
• May require repositioning to ensure even drying.
• Dry only one blanket at a time for best tumbling action.
• Be sure the item is thoroughly dry before using or storing.
• Use the Wrinkle Free Fabrics cycle to help minimize wrinkling.
• Dry in small loads for best results and remove as soon as possible.
• Use the Regular cycle for soft, fluffy diapers.
• Use the Regular cycle and a delicate temperature setting.
