Is the exhaust vent diameter the correct size? Use 4" (102 mm) diameter vent material.

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" (25 mm) of airspace, and, for most installations, the rear of the dryer requires 5" (127 mm). See the Installation Instructions.

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 Automatic Cycles. Increasing or decreasing the dryness level will change the amount of drying time in a cycle.

Lint on load

Is the lint screen clogged?

Clean lint screen. Check for air movement.

Stains on load or drum

Was dryer fabric softener properly used?

Add dryer fabric softener sheets at the beginning of the cycle. Fabric softener sheets added to a partially dried load can stain your garments. Do not use fabric softener sheets with steam cycles.

Drum stains are caused by dyes in clothing (usually blue jeans). These will not transfer to other clothing.

Loads are wrinkled

Was the load removed from dryer at the end of the cycle? Select Enhanced Touch Up Cycle to tumble the load with water and heat. This cycle is best for smoothing out wrinkles and reducing odors from loads consisting of wrinkle-free cotton, cotton polyester blends, common knits and synthetic garments.

NOTE: Refer to garment care label instructions. Dry clean only garments are not recommended.

Loads are still wrinkled following Steam Cycle?

Make sure water is connected to the dryer. Check that water inlet hose is connected to both the faucet and dryer’s water inlet valve. Check that the water supply is turned on.

Was the dryer overloaded?

Dry smaller loads that can tumble freely. Smaller loads of 1-4 garments yield best results with Quick Refresh Cycle. Results may also vary depending on fabric type. This cycle is best for reducing wrinkles and odors from loads consisting of wrinkle- free cotton, cotton polyester blends, common knits and synthetics.

Odors

Have you recently been painting, staining, or varnishing in the area where your dryer is located?

If so, ventilate the area. When the odors or fumes are gone from the area, rewash and dry the clothing.

Is water connected to the dryer?

Check that water inlet hose is connected to both the faucet and dryer’s water inlet valve. Check that the water supply is turned on.

To remove odors left in garments after wearing, select Quick Refresh for small loads of 1-4 garments. This cycle is best for reducing wrinkles and odors from loads consisting of wrinkle- free cotton, cotton polyester blends, common knits, and synthetics.
