How often do I need to clean the lint trap?
You should empty the lint trap either before or after every load you dry. The warm, dry air needs to be able to flow through the wet clothes to be the most effective. You also cut the risk of dryer fires by keeping the lint trap clean. You can wash the lint trap in soap and water and scrub it with a nylon brush periodically to wash the filmy residue build-up from it.
