Solutions

Separate heavy items from lightweight items. Larger and heavier items take longer to dry.

Heavy fabrics take longer to dry because they tend to retain more moisture. To help reduce and maintain more consistent drying times for large and heavy fabrics, separate these items into smaller loads of

a consistent size.

Use the appropriate control settings for the type of load you are drying.

Make sure the lint filter is cleaned before every load. With some loads that produce high amounts of lint, it may be necessary to clean the filter during the cycle.

Confirm that the exhaust ductwork is properly configured and free of debris, lint, and obstructions. Make sure that outside wall dampers can open properly and are not blocked, jammed, or damaged.

Reset circuit breaker or replace fuse. Do not increase fuse capacity. If the problem is a circuit overload, have it corrected by a qualified electrician.

Divide larger loads into smaller loads for drying.

If you are drying a very small load, add a few extra items to ensure proper tumbling action.

Overdrying a load of laundry can lead to wrinkled clothes. Try a shorter drying time, and remove items while they still retain a slight amount of moisture.

Remove items from the dryer immediately at the end of the cycle. Use the WRINKLE CARE option to continue tumbling clothes at the end of the cycle, for up to 3 hours.

Clothes are shrinking • Garment care instructions are not being followed.

To avoid shrinkage, please carefully follow the fabric care instructions for your garment, because some fabrics will naturally shrink when washed. Other fabrics can be washed but will shrink when dried in a dryer. Use a low or no heat setting and/or the RACK DRY option.
