Care & Cleaning

Interior

The drum is rust-resistant. However, colored fabrics which lose color or bleed in the washer may cause dis- coloration of the dryer drum. We recommend that the dryer drum be cleaned with a cloth using a

detergent and water paste or a mild abrasive, such as Soft Scrub™. Rinse thoroughly. Then tumble- dry several wet rags or old towels for 20 to 30 minutes before using the dryer normally.

Exterior

Wipe off any spills or washing compounds. Wipe or dust with a damp cloth. Try not to strike the surface with sharp objects.

Dryer control panel and finishes may be damaged by some laundry pretreatment soil and stain remover products if such products are sprayed on or have direct contact with the dryer.

Apply these pretreatment products away from the dryer. The fabric may then be washed and dried normally. Damage to your dryer caused by pretreatment products is not covered by your warranty.
