Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the life of your dryer.

  • Cleaning the Lint Filter: To prevent lint buildup and extend motor life, regularly remove and clean the lint filter. Ensure the dryer is unplugged before cleaning. Gently twist or pull off the rear filter cover, remove any accumulated lint or hair, and replace the cover securely.

Troubleshooting

If your dryer is not functioning as expected, please check the following:

  • No Power: Ensure the dryer is securely plugged into a working electrical outlet. Check if the outlet is receiving power by testing it with another appliance.
