If the ‘change bottom filter’ light doesn’t go away, check these things:
- The bottom filter and the lint trap are 2 different parts. The bottom filter is at the bottom of the dryer, behind a closed lid.
- When you clean the bottom filter, also clean the space behind the filter.
- When you’re done cleaning the filter and the space behind it, you can start a cycle, and the notification will go away afterwards.
