Attempting to repair a Dryer without proper training and safety standards is dangerous.

Dryers should only be repaired by skilled professionals who have the knowledge and

experience to safely bring them out of disrepair. Repairs performed by unqualified people

could cause serious injury or even death. A relatively small outlet can easily carry the current

needed to kill a person.

To reduce the need of repairs, use the following preventative measures. Proper maintenance

and care is essential in keeping your dryer running efficiently. Improper care will cause your

unit to overwork by using more electricity to keep you clothes dry than if properly maintained.

By following these tips, you can prolong the life of your clothes dryer, prevent fires and avoid

many costly repairs.

Seven money saving tips that will extend the life of your clothes dryer and lower the cost of

energy.

1. Make sure that the dryer's feet are level to prevent an imbalance in the machine that may

cause loud noises and added wear and tear on the unit. For fire safety, do not place the dryer

near heat producing device.

2. Empty the lint filter after each and every use for efficient drying and fire prevention.

Remove anything else that can impede good airflow. Do not forget to clean the back of the

dryer where lint settles over time.

3. Vent your dryer to the outside, never vent it inside. Clean out exhaust vent system at least

once a year to remove clogs or other obstructions that can impede good airflow. The U.S.

Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) estimates that many fires associated with

clothes dryers occur annually.

4. Do not place foam backed rugs, rubber/plastic shoes or other heat sensitive articles in

dryers. Also, to prevent fires, do not place clothing or other items soiled with flammable

substances like gasoline and alcohol. Check the pockets of clothes for crayons and other

heat sensitive items that may ruin the other clothes.

5. To save energy, do not overload the dryer and make sure items are not water logged. This

may burn out the motor.

6. Clean up all spills from the top of the dryer. Many detergents and solvents can damage

finish. Clean with a mild household dish soap or baking soda and rinse with warm water.

Rinse and wipe dry.

7. Always read manufacturer’s guides and operating instructions.
