When to Replace

• The mesh screen has visible rips, tears, or holes that allow lint to pass through.
• The plastic frame is cracked, warped, or broken, preventing a proper seal.
• Dryer cycle times are significantly longer due to restricted airflow from a clogged or damaged screen.
• Visible lint accumulation is found on the blower wheel or inside the exhaust vent.
• The filter no longer slides smoothly into the guide rails or sits flush against the housing.

Installation Tips

• Ensure the dryer is turned off before removing or installing the filter.
• Pull the old lint filter straight up and out of the housing slot.
• Use a long-reach vacuum attachment or a lint brush to clean out the internal filter cavity before inserting the new unit.
• Slide the new filter into the guide rails, ensuring the mesh face is oriented correctly according to the manufacturer's markings.
• Press down firmly until the filter is fully seated and the handle is flush with the dryer surface.
• Clean the lint screen before every load to maintain optimal airflow and prevent overheating.
