Maintenance

Lubrication

All moving parts are sealed in a permanent supply of lubricant or are equipped with oilless bearings. Additional lubrication will not be necessary.

Care of Your Dryer

WARNING

To reduce the risk of an electric shock, serious injury or death, disconnect the electrical service to the dryer before cleaning the interior.

W132

Dryer Interior

Wipe the surfaces using a soft cloth and household cleaner or a non-abrasive paste of powdered laundry detergent and hot water, followed by a short heat cycle with a load of rags.

To remove crayon or ball point ink off the dryer drum, put the heat on high and use old rags in the dryer to absorb the crayon or ink. If unsuccessful, contact the appliance dealer. DO NOT use any chemicals in the dryer.

IMPORTANT: The use of chlorine bleach for removing any discolorations should be avoided because bleach could damage the finish.

Cabinet

Wipe the dryer cabinet as needed. If detergent, bleach or other washing products have been spilled on the dryer, wipe immediately. Some products will cause permanent damage if spilled on the cabinet.

Control Panel

Use only a damp or sudsy cloth for cleaning the control panel. Some spray pretreat products may harm the finish on the control panel.

NOTE: The wiring diagram is located inside the control panel.

WARNING

Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous operation.

W049

Exhaust System

WARNING

To reduce the risk of electric shock, disconnect the electrical service to the dryer before cleaning.

W043

The exhaust duct should be inspected after one year of use and cleaned if necessary by a qualified service person to remove any lint build-up. Inspect and clean exhaust duct every one to two years as required thereafter.

The weather hood should be checked frequently to make sure the dampers move freely, dampers are not pushed in and that nothing has been set against them.

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

Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air.

NOTE: Verify proper operation after servicing.

Lint Filter

CLEAN THE LINT FILTER BEFORE DRYING EACH LOAD. (Refer to Figure 40 for lint filter location.) Cleaning the lint filter is important because a layer or pad of lint on the filter will block the flow of air through the dryer, thus reducing the efficiency of the dryer. The clothes will take longer to dry and energy will be wasted.

The lint filter may be washed if needed. Annually remove lint filter and screw to vacuum the duct under it.
