GE DCXR453 Clothes Dryer User Manual


 
Care & Cleaning
The drum is rust-resistant.
However, colored fabrics which
lose color or bleed in the washer
may cause discoloration of the dry-
er drum. We recommend that the
dryer drum be cleaned with a cloth
using a detergent and water paste
or a mild abrasive, such as Soft
Scrub™. Rinse thoroughly. Then
tumble-dry several wet rags or old
towels for 20 to 30 minutes before
using the dryer normally.
Interior
Wipe off any spills or washing
compounds. Wipe or dust with
a damp cloth. Try not to strike
the surface with sharp objects.
Dryer control panel and finishes
may be damaged by some laundry
pretreatment soil and stain remover
products if such products are
sprayed on or have direct contact
with the dryer.
Apply these pretreatment products
away from the dryer. The fabric
may then be washed and dried
normally. Damage to your dryer
caused by pretreatment products
is not covered by your warranty.
Exterior
Before every dryer use, clean the
lint filter. It is easier to remove
the lint when your fingers are
moistened.
To keep your dryer operating at
peak performance, be sure to have
a technician vacuum the lint from
the machine every three years.

To store your dryer for a short peri-
