FIRE HAZARD

A clothes dryer produces combustible lint. The dryer must be connected to an outdoors exhaust. Regularly inspect the outdoor exhaust opening and remove any accumulation of lint around the opening and in the

surround!ncJ area" ....................................................................................................................................

To reduce risk of fire or serious injury to persons or property, comply with the basic warnings listed in the Important Safety Instructions and those listed below.

•Before cleaning the dryer interior, unplug the electrical power cord to avoid electrical shock hazards.

•Do not use any type of spray cleanser when cleaning the dryer interior. Hazardous fumes or electrical shock could occur.

.... IMPORTANT

Clean the lint filter after every load.

!NSIDE

Clean the lint filter after every load. Lint build-up on the filter restricts

air flow, which causes longer drying times. The filter is located at the

i

bottom of the door opening. Remove by pulling straight up. Remove the lint and replace the filter.

•Occasionally a waxy build-up may form on the lint filter and/or mois- ture sensing bars from using dryer-added fabric softener sheets. To remove this build-up, wash the filter and bars with warm, soapy water. Dry the filter thoroughly and replace. Do not operate the dryer without the lint filter in place.

•If the dryer drum becomes stained from noncolorfast fabrics, clean the drum with a damp cloth and a mild liquid household cleanser. Remove cleanser residue before drying the next load.

•Every 18 months an authorized servicer should clean the dryer cabinet interior and exhaust duct. These areas can collect lint and dust over time.

An excessive amount of lint build-up could result in inefficient drying and possible fire hazard.

Do not store or place laundry products on top of dryer at any time. They can damage the finish or controls.

OUTSIDE

•Clean the cabinet with mild soap and water. Never use harsh, gritty or abrasive cleansers.

•If the cabinet becomes stained, clean with diluted chlorine bleach (1 part bleach to 8 parts water). Rinse several times with clear water.

•Remove glue residue remaining from tape or labels with a mixture of warm water and mild detergent.
