Press the START button again if the door is opened during the cycle.

Check the home’s circuit breaker and fuses.

Select a heat setting, not air-fluff.

On a gas dryer, check that the gas supply is on.

Clean the lint filter and exhaust duct.

Check all of the above, plus...

Be sure the exhaust hood at the outside of the home can open and close freely.

Use 4” rigid metal exhaust duct.

Do not overload. 1 Wash load = 1 Dryer load.

Sort heavy items from lightweight items.

Check that the washer is draining properly to extract adequate water from the load.

Check the load for objects such as coins, loose buttons, nails, etc. Remove promptly.

Be sure the dryer is leveled properly as outlined in the installation manual.

Be sure the rubber feet are installed on the leveling legs.

This is normal operation for an IntelliDry cycle, especially at the beginning of cycle. Once the load begins to dry, the control knob will start to advance. The rate of advancement will be slow at the beginning of the cycle because there is more moisture in the load. As the load becomes more dry, the control knob will advance more quickly.
