VACATION, STORAGE, AND MOVING CARE

Install and store your dryer where it will not freeze. Because some water may stay in the hoses, freezing can damage your dryer. If storing or moving your dryer during freezing weather, winterize it.

Non-Use or Storage Care

Operate your dryer only when you are at home. If you will be on vacation or not using your dryer for an extended period of time, you should:

1.Unplug dryer or disconnect power.

2.Clean lint screen. See “Cleaning the Lint Screen.”

3.Turn off the water supply to the dryer. This helps to avoid unintended flooding (due to a water pressure surge) while you are away.

Moving Care

1.Unplug the power supply cord.

2.Gas models only: Close shutoff valve in gas supply line.

3.Gas models only: Disconnect gas supply line pipe and remove fittings attached to dryer pipe.

4.Gas models only: Cap the open fuel supply line.

5.Steam models only: Shut off water faucet.

7.Make sure leveling legs are secure in dryer base.

8.Use masking tape to secure dryer door.

1.Disconnect power.

2.Disconnect wiring.

3.Steam models only: Shut off water faucet.

4.Steam models only: Disconnect the water inlet hose from faucet, then drain the hose. Transport hose separately.
