Maintenance Tips for Appliances
- Clean the lint filter before every load.
- Vacuum lint from the cabinet and vent path every 6 months.
- In Stark County, seasonal humidity swings increase lint and static—check and clean vents more often in winter.
- Avoid overloading; it stresses the belt and idler pulley.
