CARE AND CLEANING WARNING 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 surrounding area. IMPORTANT Clean the lint filter after every load. WARNING To reduce risk of fire or serious injury to persons or property, comply with the basic warnings listed in the Important Safety Instructions and in this Care and Cleaning section. WARNING FIRE HAZARD / HARMFUL VAPOR HAZARD Before cleaning the laundry center interior, unplug the electrical power cord to avoid electrical shock hazards. Cleaning Inside of Dryer WARNING FIRE HAZARD / HARMFUL VAPOR HAZARD DO NOT use any type spray cleanser when cleaning the dryer interior. Hazardous fumes or electrical shock could occur. • 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 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 from using dryer-added fabric softener sheets. To remove this build-up, wash the filter 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 non colorfast 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 a qualified service personnel 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. Cleaning Inside of Washer • Remove items from the washer as soon as the cycle ends. Excess wrinkling, color transfer, and odors may develop in items left in the washer. • Dry the washer top, the area around the lid opening, and the underside of the lid. These areas should always be dry before the lid is closed. • Before cleaning the washer interior, unplug the electrical power cord to avoid electrical shock hazards. • When extremely soiled items have been washed, a dirty residue may remain on the tub. Remove this by wiping the tub with a nonabrasive household cleanser. Rinse thoroughly with water. 19
