D nt use any type spray cleanser when cleaning dryer interir. fumes r electrical shck culd ccur. Hazardus Inside the Washer Remve items frm thewasher as sn asthe cycleends. Excesswrinkling, clr transfer, and drs may develp in items left in the washer. Dry the washer tp, the area arund the lid pening, and the underside f the lid. These areas shuld always be dry befre the lid is clsed. Befre cleaning the washer interir, unplugtheelectricalpwercrdt electrical shck hazards. avid Clean lint screen after every lad. When extremely siled items have been washed, adirty residue may remain n the tub. Remve this by wiping the tub with a nnabrasive husehld cleanser. Rinsethrughly with water. The agitatr r tub may becme stained frm fabric dye. Clean these parts with a nnabrasive husehld cleanser. This prevents dye transfer t future lads. inside the Dryer Clean the dryer lint screen after every lad. Lint build-up in the screen restricts airflw, which causes lnger drying times. The screen is lcated at the bttm f the dr pening. Remve by pulling straight up. Remve the lint and replace the screen. Wash lint screen ccasinally. Use care with laundry prducts. They can damage finish n the laundry center. Occasinally awaxy build-up may frm n the lint screenfrm using dryer-added fabric sftener sheets. T remve this build-up, wash the lint screen in warm, sapy water. Dry thrughly and replace. D nt perate the dryer withut the lint screen in place. Ifthe dryer drum becmes stained frm nnclrfast fabrics, clean the drum with a damp clth and a mild liquid husehld cleanser. Remve cleanser residue befre drying the next lad. Every 18 mnths a Searsr ther qualified service dealer shuld clean the dryer cabinet interir and exhaust duct. These areas can cllect lint and dust ver time. An excessiveamunt f lint build-up culd result in inefficient drying and pssible fire hazard. Outside When laundering is cmpleted, wipe cabinet with a damp clth.
