the appliance and exhaust duct should be
cleaned once a year by qualified service
personnel.
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

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.
Do not touch the surface or the display
with sharp objects.
The Lint Filter: Clean the lint filter before
each use. Remove by pulling straight up.

Stainless Steel: To clean stainless steel
surfaces, use a damp cloth with a mild,

reliability available in a GE 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.
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.)
