Cleaning the lint screen
Every load cleanlng
The lint screen is located in the dryer. A screen blocked
by lint can increase drying time.

screen with your fingers. Do not rinse or wash screen
to remove lint.
2. Push the lint screen firmly back into place.
iMPORTANT:
[] Do not run the dryer with the lint screen loose, damaged,
biocked, 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. See
"Venting Requirements" in your "installation instructions".
As needed cleanlng
Laundry detergent and fabric softener residue can build up
on the lint screen. This buildup can cause longer drying times
for your clothes, or cause the dryer to stop before your load
is completely dry. The screen is probably clogged if lint falls
off: while the screen is in the dryer.
Clean the lint screen with a nylon brush every 6 months_
or more frequently, if it becomes clogged due to a residue
buildup.
To wash:
1. Roll lint off: the screen with your fingers.
2. Wet both sides of lint screen with hot water.

detergent. Scrub lint screen with the brush to
remove residue buildup.
