Cleaning the Dryer Location
Keep dryer area clear and free from items that would block the
air ow for proper dryer operation. This includes clearing piles of
laundry in front of the dryer.
Cleaning the Lint Screen
Clean lint screen before each load. A screen blocked by lint can
increase drying time.
IMPORTANT:
Do not run the dryer with the lint screen loose, damaged, ■
blocked, or missing. Doing so can cause overheating and
damage to both the dryer and fabrics.
If lint falls off the screen into the dryer during removal, check ■
the exhaust hood and remove the lint. The exhaust hood is
located where the dryer air exits your home.

stain future loads of clothes. Dry these items inside out to avoid
drum staining.
