As needed cleaning
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 the screen•
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•
3. Wet a nylon brush with hot water and liquid detergent. Scrub
lint screen with the brush to remove residue buildup.
\\
4. Rinse screen with hot water•
5. Thoroughly dry lint screen with a clean towel. Replace screen
in dryer.
Every load cleaning
The lint screen is located on the front of the dryer, below the door.
A reminder to CLEAN LINT SCREEN is displayed in the status
display window• A screen blocked by lint can increase drying
time.
To clean
1. Pull the lint screen straight out. Roll lint off the screen with
your fingers. Do not rinse or wash screen to remove lint. Wet
lint is hard to remove.
NOTE: To completely remove the lint screen, depress the tab.
To clean dryer drum
1. Make a paste with powdered laundry detergent and very
warm water.
2. Apply paste to a soft cloth.
OR
Apply a liquid, nonflammable household cleaner to the
stained area and rub with a soft cloth until all excess dye is
removed.
3. Wipe drum thoroughly with a damp cloth•
4. Tumble a load of clean cloths or towels to dry drum.
NOTE: Garments that contain unstable dyes, such as denim blue
jeans or brightly colored cotton items, may discolor the dryer
interior• These stains are not harmful to your dryer and will not
stain future loads of clothes. Dry unstable dye items inside out to
avoid dye transfer•
2. Push the lint screen firmly back into place.
IMPORTANT:
Do not run the dryer with the lint screen loose, damaged,
blocked, 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."
To avoid damaging the exterior finish, do not use soap-filled
scouring pads, abrasive cleaners, steel-wool pads, gritty
washcloths or some paper towels on stainless steel surfaces.

Has a household fuse blown, or has a circuit breaker
tripped?
The drum may be turning, but you may not have heat.
Replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker. If the problem
continues, call an electrician.
Is the valve open on the gas supply line?
Unusual sounds
Has the dryer had a period of non-use?
If the dryer hasn't been used for a while, there may be a
thumping sound during the first few minutes of operation.
Is it a gas dryer?
The gas valve clicking is a normal operating sound.
Is a coin, button, or paper clip caught between the drum
and front or rear of the dryer?
Check the front and rear edges of the drum for small objects.
Clean out pockets before laundering.
Are the four legs installed, and is the dryer level front to
back and side to side?
The dryer may vibrate if not properly installed. See the
Installation Instructions.
Clothes are not drying satisfactorily, drying times are too
long, or load istoo hot
Is the lint screen clogged with lint?
Lint screen should be cleaned before each load.
Fire Hazard
Use a heavy metal vent.
Do not use a plastic vent.
Do not use a metal foil vent.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death
or fire.
Is the exhaust vent or outside exhaust hood clogged with
lint, restricting air movement?
Run the dryer for 5-10 minutes. Hold your hand under the
outside exhaust hood to check air movement. Ifyou do not
feel air movement, clean exhaust system of lint or replace
exhaust vent with heavy metal vent. See the Installation
Instructions.
19
Are fabric softener sheets blocking the grille?
Use only one fabric softener sheet, and use it only once.
Is the exhaust vent the correct length?
Check that the exhaust vent is not too long or has too many
turns, Long venting will increase drying times. See the
Installation Instructions.
Is the exhaust vent diameter the correct size?
Use 4" (10.2 cm) diameter vent material.
Explosion Hazard
Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as
gasoline, away from dryer,
Place dryer at least 18 inches (46 cm) above the floor
for a garage installation.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
Is the dryer located in a room with temperature below
45°F (7°C)?
Proper operation of dryer cycles requires temperatures above
45°F (7°C).
Is the dryer located in a closet?
Closet doors must have ventilation openings at the top and
bottom of the door. The rear of the dryer requires 5" (12.7 cm)
clearance. See the Installation Instructions.
Has an air dry cycle been selected?
Select the right cycle for the types of garments being dried,
See "Cycles."
Is the load too large and heavy to dry quickly?
Separate the load to tumble freely.
Cycle time too short
Excessive Weight Hazard
