45°F (7°C)?

Proper operation of dryer cycles requires temperatures above 45°F (7°0).

[] 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 an air dry cycle been selected?

Select the right cycle for the types of garments being dried. See "Modifiers."

[] is the load too large and heaw to dry quickly?

Separate the load to tumble freely.

[] Are clothes coming out of the Refresh cycle with damp or wet spots?

Under certain environmental or installation conditions you may experience underdrying. Select the Touch Up cycle (20 rain. default time), which can be customized by selecting High temperature and/or additional cycle time by pressing the Timed Cycle Adjust More Time button.

Cycle time too short

[] 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.

Do not use a dryer rack with an automatic 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 temporarily stain your garments. Do not use fabric softener sheets with SteamCare cycles.

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

Loadsare wrinkled

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

Select Touch Up Cycle to tumble the load with water and heat to help smooth out wrinkles from a load left in the dryer.

[] Was the dryer overloaded?

Dry smaller loads that can tumble freely. Smaller loads of

1-4 garments yield best results with Refresh Cycle. Results may also vary depending on fabric type. This cycle is best for reducing wrinkles and odors from loads consisting of wrinklefree cotton, cotton polyester blends, common knits and synthetics.

[] Loads are still wrinkled following SteamCare 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. 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.

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 the dryer being used for the first time?

The new electric heating element may have an odor. The odor will be gone after the first cycle.

[] 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.
