Cleaning the Dryer Interior
To clean dryer drum
1. Apply a nonflammable household cleaner to the stained area of the drum and rub with a soft cloth until stain is removed. 2. Wipe drum thoroughly with a damp cloth. 3. Tumble a load of clean cloths or towels to dry the 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 transfer of dye.

Water Inlet Hoses
Replace inlet hoses after 5 years of use to reduce the risk of hose failure. Periodically inspect and replace inlet hoses if bulges, kinks, cuts, wear or leaks are found. When replacing your inlet hoses, mark the date of replacement on the label with a permanent marker.

Cleaning the Lint Screen
