MAINTENANCE
Your dryer is virtually maintenance-
free. No lubrication is needed. For
proper operating performance, the
dryer must be kept clean. To make
cleaning easier, your GE Professional
Dryer has a hinged filter cap and a
mesh insert. To clean the air intake
opening, unplug your dryer. Simply
pop open the filter cap and take out
the mesh insert. Now you can easily
shake or rinse the dust and lint from
the mesh insert. After the insert is
clean and dry, re-insert it into the fil-
ter and snap the filter cap closed. For
your convenience, a second mesh in-
sert is included, should the original
one ever get lost or become damaged.
The outer surface of the dryer should
be wiped clean with a damp cloth only.
Blocked or clogged air intake vents
will cause the dryer to overheat. If
overheating occurs, an automatic safe-
ty device will shut the dryer or the
heat off to prevent damage or person-
al injury. If the unit or the heat cycles
off, unplug the cord and allow the
dryer to cool for 10 to 15 minutes
before restarting. Make sure the air
vents are clean.
CAUTION
NEVER allow the power supply cord
to be pulled, twisted, or severely bent.
Never wrap the cord tightly around
the dryer. Damage will occur at the
high flex point of entry into the dryer,
causing it to rupture and short. Inspect
the cord frequently for damage. Stop
use immediately if damage is visible or
unit stops or operates intermittently.
If the cord or dryer is damaged or
does not operate properly, return it to
place of purchase for exchange. No
repairs should be attempted by the
consumer.
STORAGE - Important
When not in use, your dryer should
be disconnected and stored in a safe,
dry location, out of reach of children.
Do not wrap line cord around dryer.
Allow the cord to hang or lie loose
and straight at the point of entry into
the dryer.
