Cleaning the Lint Screen - Compact Heat Pump Dryer
Every Load Cleaning:
The lint screen will be located in the door opening of the dryer. A screen blocked by lint can increase drying time.
To clean:
- Pull the lint screen straight up. Roll lint off the screen with your fingers. Do not rinse or wash the screen to remove lint. Wet lint is hard to remove.
- Push the lint screen firmly back into place.
IMPORTANT: Do not run the dryer with the lint screen lose, damaged, blocked, or missing. Doing so can cause overheating and damage to both the dryer and the fabrics.
As-needed cleaning:
Laundry detergent and fabric softener residue can build up on the lint screen. This buildup can cause longer drying times for your clothes, or cause the dryer to stop before your load is completely dry. Clean the lint screen with a nylon brush every 6 months, or more frequently, if it becomes clogged due to a residue buildup. To wash the lint screen:
- Roll lint off the screen with your fingers.
- Wet both sides of the lint screen with hot water.
- Wet a nylon brush with hot water and a liquid detergent. Scrub lint screen with the brush to remove residue buildup.
- Rinse screen with hot water.
- Thoroughly dry lint screen with a clean towel. Reinstall screen in dryer.
