NOTE: Glass door models have a film on the window that should be removed.
10. Read "Dryer Use."
11. Wipe the dryer drum interior thoroughly with a damp cloth to remove any dust.
12. If you live in a hard water area, use of a water softener is recommended to control the
buildup of scale through the water system in the dryer. Over time, the buildup of lime
scale may clog different parts of the water system, which will reduce product
performance. Excessive scale buildup may lead to the need for certain part replacement
or repair.
