Quick cooling can not be selected with the CLEANING THE LINT FILTER Although the lint in your ASKO dryer will be minimal, the lint filter should be cleaned after each load to ensure maximum air flow and prevent possible overheating. To clean the filter, follow the steps below: 1. Grasp the handle and pull it toward you. 2. Remove the filter from the holder by pulling it up. 3. Open the filter and gently brush away any lint. 4. Fold the filter together and return it to the holder on the door. 5. Push the holder in until it snaps into place NOTE: We recommend that you clean the lint filter after every load. OVERHEATING PROTECTION The dryer has a protection device that shuts the machine off if the temperature becomes too high. Overheating could occur if the lint filter is clogged or the fan needs to be cleaned. If the dryer shuts off during a program, check the lint filter first. If it is clean, it could be the fan needs to be cleaned. See your Use and Care Guide for instructions on how to clean the fan.
