CARE & CLEANING
CLEANING THE DRYER
Control Panel – clean with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive powders or cleaning pads. Do not scratch or scrape the control panel with any sharp object, including fingernails. Do not spray cleaners directly on the panel.
Cabinet – clean with soap and water followed with an appliance wax, if desired.
Drum – remove any stains such as crayon, ink pen or fabric dye (from new items such as towels or jeans) with an
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.
Dryer Exhaust System – should be inspected and cleaned 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.)
USING THE DRYING RACK
The drying rack allows you to dry items that you don’t want to tumble dry, for example, trainers, washable sweaters, stuffed toys or pillows, etc.
The rack remains stationary, but the drum rotates. (Make sure nothing hangs over the edges of the rack.)
To Use Rack:
1. Open dryer door.
2. Position drying rack in drum with the two extension wires toward you. These wires will brace the rack against the front surface of the drum. Legs will rest on front ledge and at back of drum.
3. Place wet items on the rack, leaving space between them so air can reach all surfaces. 4. Close dryer door.
5. Use the Time Dry programme. Select time according to moisture and weight of item. Push the Start/Pause button. It may be necessary to reset the controls if a longer drying time is needed.
To Remove Rack:
1. Open dryer door.
2. Lift rack straight up and out.
