Cleaning the Lint Screen
Every load cleaning
The lint screen is located on the top of the dryer. Clean it before each load. A screen blocked by lint can increase drying time. To clean 1. Pull the lint screen towards you. Roll lint off the screen with your fingers. Do not rinse or wash screen to remove lint. Wet lint is hard to remove.

Use nonflammable cleaner. Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
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, non-flammable 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 which 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 prevent dye transfer.

2. Push the lint screen firmly back into place. IMPORTANT: Do not run the dryer with the lint screen loose, damaged, s blocked, or missing. Doing so can cause overheating and damage to both the dryer and fabrics.

Some towels made of synthetic fibers and natural fibers (polyester and cotton blends) may shed more lint than other towels, causing your dryer�s lint screen to fill up faster. Be sure to remove lint from the lint screen before and after drying new towels. If lint falls off the screen into the dryer during removal, check the exhaust hood and remove the lint. See �Checking Your Vent.�

As needed cleaning
Laundry detergent and fabric softener residue can buildup 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 six months or more frequently if it becomes clogged due to a residue buildup.
