3. Safety Information

Please read and understand all safety instructions before using this product. Failure to do so may result in injury or damage to your appliance.

• Keep out of reach of children and pets.
• Avoid contact with eyes and skin. In case of contact, rinse thoroughly with water.
• Do not ingest. If swallowed, seek medical attention immediately.
• Use in a well-ventilated area.
• Always disconnect the dryer from the power supply before performing any maintenance or applying lubricant.
• Dispose of the empty tube responsibly according to local regulations.

4. Setup and Preparation

Before applying the lubricant, ensure your dryer is properly prepared.

1. Disconnect Power: Unplug the dryer from the electrical outlet to prevent accidental startup.
2. Access Components: Depending on the dryer model and the specific components requiring lubrication (e.g., drum rollers, idler pulley, motor bearings), you may need to remove panels or access covers. Refer to your dryer's specific service manual for instructions on how to safely access these parts.
3. Clean Area: Thoroughly clean any dust, lint, or old grease from the components to be lubricated. Use a clean cloth and, if necessary, a suitable degreaser, ensuring the area is dry before proceeding.

5. Operating Instructions (Application)

Follow these steps to correctly apply the Bosch 00155280 Dryer Lubricant:

1. Identify Lubrication Points: Determine which moving parts require lubrication. Common points include drum rollers, idler pulleys, and motor shaft bearings.
2. Apply Sparingly: Squeeze a small amount of lubricant directly onto the moving parts. A thin, even layer is sufficient. Avoid over-application, as excess lubricant can attract dust and lint.
3. Distribute Evenly: Manually rotate the lubricated components a few times to ensure the lubricant is evenly distributed across the surface.
4. Reassemble: Once all necessary components are lubricated, carefully reassemble any panels or covers that were removed.
5. Reconnect Power: Plug the dryer back into the electrical outlet.
6. Test Operation: Run a short cycle without clothes to ensure everything is functioning smoothly and quietly.

6. Maintenance

Regular lubrication is key to maintaining your dryer's performance and preventing premature wear.

• Frequency: The frequency of lubrication depends on dryer usage. For average household use, it is recommended to inspect and lubricate relevant components every 6 to 12 months, or whenever unusual noises (squeaking, grinding) are heard.
• Inspection: During routine maintenance, visually inspect all moving parts for signs of wear, such as cracks, flat spots on rollers, or excessive play in bearings. Lubricate as needed.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues after applying the lubricant, consider the following:

• Persistent Noise: If squeaking or grinding noises persist after lubrication, the component may be worn beyond repair and require replacement rather than just lubrication.
• Excessive Lubricant: If too much lubricant was applied, it might attract lint, potentially causing new issues. Clean off any excess and reapply a thin layer if necessary.
• Incorrect Application: Ensure the lubricant was applied to the correct moving parts. Refer to your dryer's service manual for precise lubrication points.
• Other Issues: Lubrication addresses friction-related noises. If the dryer exhibits other problems (e.g., not heating, not tumbling), the issue is likely unrelated to lubrication and requires further diagnosis.
