or turn off the circuit breaker to cut the
electrical supply to the dryer.
CLEANING LINT FROM YOUR DRYER
Combustible lint may collect on the inside of the dryer cabinet. CLEAN EVERY 2 TO 3 YEARS OR
MORE OFTEN DEPENDING ON USAGE. Cleaning should be done by a qualified service person.
ALWAYS VERIFY PROPER OPERATION AFTER SERVICING
2. Disconnect duct from dryer.
3. Clean exhaust duct from end where dryer is
connected to the exhaust hood using:
• the hose attachment of your vacuum cleaner:
• a dust rag attached to a pole (for straight stretches)
or to a drain cleaning wire (for less accessible
turns).
4. Inspect exhaust hood. To minimize resistance to the
exhaust air flow:
• flap must move freely (you may check with a
mirror);
• flap should be fully open when dryer is on;
• ensure that no wildlife (birds, insects,...) have
nested inside the duct.
