CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
The dryer must be kept clean for proper operating performance. When cleaning is
needed, unplug the cord, allow to cool and clean dust and lint from air intake openings
with a small brush or the brush attachment of a vacuum cleaner. The outer surface of the
dryer should be wiped clean with a cloth only.
Blocked or clogged air intake vents will cause the dryer to overheat. If overheating
occurs, an automatic safety device will shut the dryer or the heat off to prevent damage
or personal injury. If the unit or the heat cycles off, turn the dryer off, unplug the cord,
and allow the dryer to cool for 10 to 15 minutes before restarting. Make sure air vents are
clean, by following below steps:
1. Remove intake filter from back of dryer by twisting counterclockwise.
2. Reach through opening, and press the mesh screen to release it from the filter (Fig. 1).
3. Visually inspect the filter to make sure no hair is caught (Fig. 2). Rinse the mesh screen
ONLY under running water to clear any debris. Repeat as needed, or use a stiff bristle
brush for any difficult build-up.
