Cleaning the lint screen
The lint screen is kxxted 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.
Lint screen maintenance
Laundry detergents and fabric softeners can
cause a residue buikl-up on the lint screen. A
clogged lint screen can extend drying times.

frequently if it becomes clogged due to a residue
build-up.

the folbwing method:

detergent.
3. Scrub lint screen with the brush until all
residue build-up is removed.
