  • Household appliances have average lifetime expectancies. Maintaining your appliances properly can extend their lifetime indefinitely.
  • If you have to do any kind of repair or maintenance on this unit, make sure to unplug it from the power supply.
  • Use a properly grounded outlet.
  • Empty the lint trap after each and every use.
  • Vent your dryer to the outside, never vent it inside.
  • Clean the complete vent system at least once a year. This includes all interior and exterior ducting, and the louvers going to the outside.
  • Do not overload with heavy clothes such as wet jeans or heavy blankets and comforters. Spread these out over two or more loads. This can extend the life of the motor and other parts.
  • Do not spray cleaners on top of the unit. Certain chemicals can damage the porcelain finish.
  • Wipe down the exterior with mild, soapy water and a wash cloth.
  • Make sure the dryer is on a level footing.
