DRYER CARE

CleaningtheDryer Location

Keep dryer area clear and free from items that would obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air.

WARNING

Explosion Hazard

Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away from dryer.

Place dryer at least 18 inches (46 cm) above the floor for a garage installation.

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.

CleaningtheLintScreen

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.
