Dryer Operation

Dryer will not run

Is a coin, button or paper clip caught between the drum and front or rear of the dryer? Check the front and rear edges of the drum for small objects. Clean out pockets before laundering.

Is it a gas dryer?

The gas valve clicking is a normal operating sound.

Has a household fuse blown, or has a circuit breaker tripped?

Replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker. If the problem continues, call an electrician.

Was a regular fuse used? Use a time-delay fuse.

Is the dryer door firmly closed?

Was the Start/Pause button firmly pressed?

Large loads may require pressing and holding the Start/Pause button for 2-5 seconds.

No heat

Has a household fuse blown, or has a circuit breaker tripped?

The drum may be turning, but you may not have heat. Replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker. If the problem continues, call an electrician.

Unusual sounds

Are the four legs installed, and is the dryer level front to back and side to side? The dryer may vibrate if not properly installed. See the Installation Instructions.

Is the clothing knotted or balled up?

When balled up, the load will bounce, causing the dryer to vibrate. Separate the load items and restart the dryer.

Dryer displaying code message

“PF” (power failure), check the following:

Was the drying cycle interrupted by a power failure?

Depending on the length of the power outage, you may be able to resume the cycle by simply pressing START/PAUSE; otherwise, press POWER/CANCEL and then start a new drying cycle.

“F” Variable (F1, F2, F20, etc.) service codes: Call for service.

Has the dryer had a period of non-use?

If the dryer hasn’t been used for a while, there may be a thumping sound during the first few minutes of operation.
