•Disconnect electric power to the tumble dryer before servicing.
•Close gas
•Close steam valve to steam tumble dryer before servicing.
•Never start the tumble dryer with any guards/panels removed.
•Whenever ground wires are removed during servicing, these ground wires must be reconnected to ensure that the tumble dryer is properly grounded.

Daily
1.Inspect the area surrounding tumble dryers, remove all combustible materials, including lint, before operating the machine.
2.Check cylinder for foreign objects to avoid damage to clothing and equipment.
3.Clean lint from lint compartment and screen to maintain proper airflow and to avoid overheating.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury, do not open the lint panel while the tumble dryer is in operation. Before cleaning the lint screen, open tumble dryer door and allow cylinder to completely stop.

a. Unlock and pull out lint drawer.
b. 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 airflow.
c. Be sure the lint screen is not torn. If it is, replace immediately. A torn lint screen allows lint to pass from the tumble dryer to the ductwork system and may restrict airflow.
d. The lint screen is designed to completely cover the entire opening in the lint screen panel. Be sure that it does so. Excessive gaps between the lint screen and the lint screen panel allow lint to pass into the ductwork system and may restrict airflow.
e. Carefully wipe any accumulated lint off the cabinet thermostat and thermistor. Failure to do so will allow a buildup of lint in this area to act as an insulator, causing the tumble dryer to overheat. Refer to Figure 10.
f. Replace the lint drawer ensuring a tight fit, and lock.
