How do I clean the lint filter?

Always clean the lint filter before every load. To remove lint between cycles, open the dryer door, pull the lint filter straight up, and roll any lint off with your fingers. Do not rinse or wash the filter. Push the lint filter firmly back into place. For periodic thorough cleaning if the filter looks dark or dirty, use hot soapy water and a stiff brush, then make sure the filter is completely dry before reinstalling. (Page 27)
