care and cleaning
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 overspray immediately.
TUMBLER
Remove any stains such as crayon, ink, or fabric dye (from new items such as towels or jeans) with an all-
purpose cleaner.
Tumble old towels or rags to remove any excess stain or cleaning substance.
Once these steps are followed, stains may still be visible, but should not transfer to subsequent loads.
POWDER COATED TUMBLER
To clean the powder coated tumbler, use a damp cloth with a mild, non-abrasive cleaner suitable for
surfaces.
Remove the cleaner residue and dry with a clean cloth.
DRYER 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. They can scratch or damage the
top cover of the dryer. Keep these items in the separately purchased pedestal or in a separate storage box.
The entire dryer has a high-gloss finish. Avoid scratching or damaging the surface when using the dryer.
DRYER EXHAUST SYSTEM
Inspect and clean the dryer exhaust system yearly to maintain optimum performance.
The outside exhaust hood should be cleaned more frequently to ensure proper operation.
