Caring for Your
Washer/Dryer
Proper care of your washer/dryer can extend its life. This section explains how to care for
your washer/dryer properly and safely.
Every load cleaning - washer
Cleaning the lint filter
Clean the filter at the bottom of the agitator
after every load for the best filtering results.
To clean:
1. Lift off the agitator barrel.
2. Wash or wipe the filter clean in the
bottom of the agitator barrel.
The filter is not removable.
3. Replace agitator barrel. Snap it
into place.
Every load cleaning - dryer
Cleaning the lint screen
The lint screen is located inside the dryer
drum, on the back wall. Clean it before
each load. A screen blocked by lint can
increase drying time.
1. Open the door and pull the lint screen
straight out.
2. Squeeze the lint screen lightly while
pulling the cover off.
3. Roll lint off the screen with your fingers.
Do not rinse or wash the screen to
remove lint. Wet lint is hard to remove.
4. Replace cover on lint screen. Push the
lint screen firmly back into place and
close the door.
IMPORTANT:
l 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.
l 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.
