CHECK THE LINT FILTER BEFORE EVERY LOAD
The CHECK FILTER indicator will light before
each load to remind you to make sure
the lint filter is clean before starting a
new load. It will also come on during
a load if the lint filter is clogged to let
you know that the lint filter needs to be cleaned;
a clogged lint filter will increase drying times.
To clean, pull the lint filter straight up and roll any
lint off the filter with your fingers. Do not rinse or
wash the filter to remove lint. Push the lint filter
firmly back into place. See “Care and Cleaning”
for more information.
Always ensure the lint filter is properly installed
before running the dryer. Running the dryer with
a loose or missing lint filter may damage the
dryer and articles in the dryer.
