USER MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS 10-Cycle Electric and Gas Dryers Maintaining your dryer Cleaning the exterior • Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive substances. • Protect the surface from sharp objects. • Do not place any heavy or sharp objects or a detergent box on the dryer. Keep them in a separate storage area. These items may scratch or damage the top cover of the dryer. • Because the entire dryer has a high-gloss finish, the surface can be scratched or damaged. Avoid scratching or damaging the surface when using the dryer. Cleaning the drum • Clean with a damp cloth dampened with a mild, non-abrasive cleaner suitable for stainless steel and anodized surfaces. • Remove the cleaner residue and dry with a clean cloth. Cleaning the control panel • Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive substances. • Do not spray cleaners directly on the panel. The control panel finish may be damaged by some laundry pre-treatment soil and stain remover products. Apply such products away from your dryer and wipe up any spills or over-spray immediately. Cleaning and inspecting the exhaust system Inspect and clean the exhaust yearly to maintain optimum performance. 1 Disconnect the exhaust duct from the dryer and from the exhaust hood (at the exhaust outlet) outside of the building. 2 Check the interior of the duct and remove any lint accumulation. 3 Make sure that lint is removed from the exhaust hood. Lint may collect in the exhaust hood so that the flappers or louvers will not open or close completely. 4 After cleaning the exhaust hood, make sure that the flapper or louvers move freely. 5 Reassemble the exhaust duct and hood, making sure that the joints are secure and sealed. 6 Operate your dryer and make sure that the exhaust air is not obstructed in the vent and that there are no leaks in the system. Note: Check and clean the outside exhaust hood frequently to ensure a proper air flow. WARNING Certain internal parts are intentionally not grounded and may present a risk of electric shock only during servicing. Service Personal: Do not contact the following parts while the appliance is energized: Control Board and Temperature-Regulating Thermistor (located on the Blower Housing). www.insigniaproducts.com 39
