If your dryer lint trap is clogged, it can cause the dryer to overheat and potentially catch on fire. Here’s how to clean it:
- Remove the lint trap by unscrewing the two screws at the top.
- Clean out any debris that’s caught in the trap with a vacuum cleaner or a broom.
- Wipe down the inside of the trap with a damp cloth to clean it and remove any remaining dust or lint.
- Reinstall the trap by screwing it back in place and re-screwing the two screws. ..
