Every use

• Clean the lint filter – we can't stress this enough. Not only does a blocked lint filter reduce your dryer's efficiency, it's the major cause of dryer fires.
• Empty the water tank (condenser and heat pump models), or plumb it into a drain.
• Leave the door ajar when not in use (if possible) to help extend the life of the seal.

Monthly

• Clean external surfaces with a soft damp cloth.

Annually

• Vacuum the lint out of air intakes, vents and crevices.
