Effective dryer operation requires proper airflow.
The adequacy of the airflow can be measured by
evaluating the static pressure. Static pressure in the
exhaust duct can be measured with a manometer,
placed on the exhaust duct approximately 2 ft.
(60.9 cm) from the dryer. Static pressure in the
exhaust duct should not exceed 0.6 inch (1.5 cm).
The dryer should be checked while the dryer is
running with no load.
Checking Levelness
Once the dryer is in its final location, recheck the
dryer to be sure it is level. Make sure it is level front
to back and side to side, and that all four leveling feet
are in firm contact with the floor.

using this appliance, follow basic precautions,
including the following:
• Check all pockets to make sure that they are
empty. Items such as clips, pens, coins, and
keys can damage both the dryer and your
clothes. Flammable objects such as lighters or
matches could ignite, causing a fire.
• Never dry clothes that have been exposed to
oil, gasoline, or other flammable substances.

Maintaining Ductwork
MAINTENANCE
Regular Cleaning
Vent ductwork should be checked for lint buildup
once per month and cleaned at least once per
year. If any noticeable reduction in airflow or drying
performance occurs, immediately check ductwork
for obstructions and blockages. Contact a qualified
technician or service provider.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock,
injury to persons, or death when using this
appliance, follow basic precautions, including
the following:
Cleaning the Lint Filter
Always clean the lint from the filter after every cycle.
• Unplug the dryer before cleaning.
• Never use harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners,
or solvents to clean the washer. They will
damage the finish.
Cleaning the Exterior
Lint Filter
Proper care of your dryer can extend its life. The
outside of the machine can be cleaned with warm
water and a mild, nonabrasive household detergent.
Immediately wipe off any spills with a soft, damp
cloth.
To clean the lint filter, open the dryer door and pull
the lint filter straight up. Then:
For everyday cleaning, roll any lint off the filter

with your fingers, or
NOTE
• Do not use methylated spirits, solvents, or similar
products.
• Never use steel wool or abrasive cleansers; they
can damage the surface.
Cleaning the Interior
Wipe around the door opening and seal with a soft,
damp cloth to prevent lint and dust buildup that could
damage the door seal.
Vacuum the lint filter.
2
Clean the window with a soft cloth dampened with
warm water and a mild, nonabrasive household
detergent, then wipe dry.
The stainless steel drum can be cleaned with a
conventional stainless steel cleaner, used according
to the manufacturer’s specifications. Never use steel
wool or abrasive cleansers; they may scratch or
damage the surface.
If the lint filter has become very dirty or clogged
with fabric softener, wash the lint filter in warm,
soapy water and allow it to dry thoroughly before
reinstalling.
3
Cleaning Around and Under the
Dryer
Vacuum lint and dust from around the dryer and
underneath it regularly. Vent ductwork should be
checked for lint buildup and cleaned at least once per
year. If any noticeable reduction in airflow or drying
performance occurs, immediately check ductwork for
obstructions and blockages.
NOTE
• NEVER operate the dryer without the lint filter in
place.

FAQs: Frequently Asked Questions
Q:
When I press a button, why does my dryer beep and then nothing happens?
A:
The Bloqueo de Panel(Control Lock) feature is turned on. To turn off
Bloqueo de Panel(Control Lock), turn the dryer on, then press and hold the button that has
*Bloqueo de Panel(Control Lock) on or under it for 3 seconds.
Q:
Why does my dryer take so long to dry clothes?
A:
Proper airflow is critical to the efficient operation of clothes dryers. A lint filter which is full of lint or
clogged with fabric softener sheet residue can reduce the airflow to the point that the time required
to dry clothing will be greatly increased. Another factor affecting dry time is your home exhaust
system. An exhaust system which is dirty and clogged with lint, or is excessively long, needs to be
professionally cleaned or repaired.
Q:
Why does my dryer start by itself every few minutes?
A:
This is how the Anti Arrugas(Wrinkle Care) feature works. The dryer runs briefly every few minutes
for up to 3 hours after the cycle finishes. This feature is designed to help prevent wrinkles from
setting in when the dryer is not unloaded immediately after the cycle is finished.
Q:
Why does my dryer show 3 minutes when I select the Steam Fresh™ cycle?
A:
When the Steam Fresh™ cycle is selected, the dryer displays the recommended number of garments
for the cycle, not the estimated cycle time, until the cycle is started. Use the Más Tiempo(More
Time) or Menos Tiempo(Less Time) buttons to adjust the load size setting for the number of
garments you desire. For a large load or single bulky item use the
(big) setting.
