Lint Filter

CLEAN THE LINT FILTER BEFORE DRYING

EACH LOAD. (Refer to Figure 72 for lint filter

location.) Cleaning the lint filter is important because

a layer or pad of lint on the filter will block the flow of

air through the dryer, thus reducing the efficiency of

the dryer. The clothes will take longer to dry and

energy will be wasted.
The lint filter may be washed if needed. Annually

remove lint filter and screw to vacuum the duct under

it.

Figure 72

Motor Overload Protector

The dryer’s motor overload protector stops the motor

automatically in the event of an overload. After

cooling, the overload protector will reset itself. Dryer

can be restarted by pressing the PUSH-TO-START

button or START pad. If overload protector cycles

again, remove the dryer from use and call the service

person to correct the problem.

For Energy Conservation

• Make sure the lint filter is always clean.
• Do not overload dryer.
• Do not overdry clothes.
• Remove items to be ironed while still damp.
• Large loads of similar fabrics dry the most

efficiently. However, dry permanent press in

smaller loads to prevent wrinkling.

• Use the correct temperature FABRIC

SELECTOR setting for the type of fabric being

dried.

• Locate your dryer so the exhaust duct is as short

and straight as possible.

• Do not open the door during the drying cycle.
• Plan to do your laundry on low humidity days;

your clothes will dry faster.

• Should you plan to dry several loads, do them

one after another, then you do not have to reheat

the dryer unit’s interior parts each time.
