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 the 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 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.

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

Loads are wrinkled

Was the load removed from dryer at the end of the cycle?

Was the dryer overloaded?

Dry smaller loads that can tumble freely.

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.
