DryerResults

Clothes are not drying satisfactorily, drying times are too long, or load is too hot

Is the lint screen clogged with lint?

Lint screen should be cleaned before each load.

WARNING

Fire Hazard

Use a heavy metal vent.

Do not use a plastic vent.

Do not use a metal foil vent.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or fire.

Is the exhaust vent or outside exhaust hood clogged with lint, restricting air movement?

Run the dryer for 5-10 minutes. Hold your hand under the outside exhaust hood to check air movement. If you do not feel air movement, clean exhaust system of lint or replace exhaust vent with heavy metal or flexible metal vent. See “Venting Requirements.”

Are fabric softener sheets blocking the grille?

Use only one fabric softener sheet, and use it only once.

Is the exhaust vent the correct length?

Check that the exhaust vent is not too long or has too many turns. Long venting will increase drying times. See “Plan Vent System.”

Is the exhaust vent diameter the correct size? Use 4" (10.2 cm) diameter vent material.

WARNING

Explosion Hazard

Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away from dryer.

Place dryer at least 18 inches (46 cm) above the floor for a garage installation.

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.

Is the dryer located in a room with temperature below 45ºF (7ºC)?

Proper operation of dryer cycles requires temperatures above 45ºF (7ºC).

Is the dryer located in a closet?

Closet doors must have ventilation openings at the top and bottom of the door. The front of the dryer requires a minimum of 1" (2.5 cm) of airspace, and, for most installations, the rear of the dryer requires 5" (12.7 cm). See “Installation Instructions.”

Has the Air Only temperature setting been selected? Select the right temperature for the types of garments being dried. See “Additional Features.”

Is the load too large and heavy to dry quickly? Separate the load to tumble freely.

Cycle time too short

WARNING

Excessive Weight Hazard

Use two or more people to move and install dryer. Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.

Is the automatic cycle ending early?

The load may not be contacting the sensor strips. Level the dryer.

Change the dryness level setting on Auto Cycles. Increasing or decreasing the dryness level will change the amount of drying time in a cycle.

Do not use a dryer rack with an Auto Cycle.
