1.Open the lint panel.

2.Remove all accumulated lint in the lint compartment area. Lightly brush any lint that may be left on the lint screen. Lint left in the lint compartment is drawn back onto the lint screen and will restrict proper air circulation.

3.Be sure the lint screen is not torn. If it is, replace immediately. A torn lint screen allows lint to pass from the tumbler to the ductwork system, thus creating a restriction to air circulation.

4.The lint screen is designed to completely cover the entire opening in the lint screen hood. Be sure that it does so. Excessive gaps between the lint screen and the lint screen hood allows lint to pass into the ductwork system.

5.Wipe any accumulated lint off of the thermostat sensing probe, cabinet hi-limit thermostat (if applicable) or thermistor (micro models). Failure to do so will allow a buildup of lint in this area to act as an insulator and cause overheating in the tumbler.

6.Replace the lint panel on the tumbler, ensuring a tight fit and lock.

7.Keep tumbler area clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable vapors and liquids.
