NON-USE, STORAGE, AND MOVING CARE

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

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.
