Maintenance-every load

The lint screen is located under a lid on top of the dryer. Clean it before each load. A screen blocked by lint can increase drying time.

1.Open the lid and pull the lint screen straight out.

2.Roll lint off the screen with your fingers. Do not rinse or wash the screen to remove lint. Wet lint is hard to remove.

3.Push the lint screen firmly back into place and close the lid.
