Care and Cleaning of the Dryer. GEAppliances.com
The Exterior: Wipe or dust any spills or
washing compounds with a damp cloth.
Dryer control panel and finishes may be
damaged by some laundry pretreatment
soil and stain remover products. Apply these
products away from the dryer. The fabric
may then be washed and dried normally.
Damage to your dryer caused by these
products is not covered by your warranty.
The Lint Filter: Clean the lint filter before
each use.
Pull out the lint filter. Moisten your fingers
and remove the captured lint. Once clean,
slide the filter back into position. Have a
qualified technician vacuum the lint from the
dryer once a year.
NEVER OPERATE THE DRYER WITHOUT ITS
FILTER IN PLACE.
Stainless Steel: To clean stainless steel
surfaces use a damp cloth with a mild, non-
abrasive cleaner suitable for stainless steel
surfaces. Remove the cleaner residue and
then dry with a clean cloth.
The stainless steel used to make the dryer
drum provides the highest reliability available
in a GE Appliances dryer. If the dryer drum
should be scratched or dented during normal
use, the drum will not rust or corrode. These
surface blemishes will not affect the function
or durability of the drum.
Dryer Interior and Duct: The interior of
the appliance and exhaust duct should be
cleaned once a year by qualified service
personnel.
The Exhaust Duct: Inspect and clean the
exhaust ducting at least once a year to
prevent clogging. A partially clogged exhaust
can lengthen the drying time.
The Exhaust Hood: Check with a mirror that
the inside flaps of the hood move freely when
operating. Make sure that there is no wildlife
(birds, insects, etc.) nesting inside the duct or
hood.
