■Is the dryer located in a closet?

Closet doors must have ventilation openings at the top and bottom of the door. For most installations, the rear of the dryer requires 5½" (14 cm). See “Installation Instructions.”

■Has an air dry cycle been selected?

Select the right cycle for the types of garments being dried. See “Cycles.”

■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.

FRONT-LOADING GAS DRYER specifications

The Whirlpool front-loading gas dryer is a pinnacle of modern laundry technology, combining efficiency, performance, and convenience. Designed to meet the demands of busy households, it offers a range of features that simplify the drying process while ensuring optimal results for all types of fabrics.

One of the standout features of this gas dryer is its advanced moisture sensing technology. The sensor detects when clothes are dry and automatically stops the cycle, preventing over-drying and saving energy. This not only protects garments from damage but also reduces energy consumption, making it an environmentally friendly choice.

In terms of capacity, the Whirlpool front-loading gas dryer boasts a generous drum size that accommodates large loads, allowing users to spend less time doing laundry. The smooth surface of the drum prevents snagging, which is especially important for delicate items. The dryer also features multiple drying cycles, including options for heavy-duty and delicate fabrics, ensuring tailored care for each load.

Moreover, the dryer is equipped with the EcoBoost option, which utilizes a lower heat setting and extended drying time to save energy without compromising drying quality. This makes it an ideal choice for the eco-conscious consumer seeking to reduce their carbon footprint.

Another remarkable characteristic of this gas dryer is its steam-enhanced cycles. The steam feature helps to reduce wrinkles and odors, providing a fresh finish to garments straight from the dryer. This is particularly beneficial for busy individuals who need to look sharp without the hassle of ironing.

The control panel of the Whirlpool front-loading gas dryer is designed for user-friendliness, featuring a clear display and intuitive controls that allow for easy selection of drying settings. The Wrinkle Shield option is also included, which periodically tumbles the load after the cycle ends to keep wrinkles at bay.

Safety is a key consideration in the design, and this dryer includes a lint screen that is easy to clean, ensuring that the appliance operates efficiently and safely.

In conclusion, the Whirlpool front-loading gas dryer is an excellent addition to any laundry room, providing a blend of advanced technologies, thoughtful features, and superior drying performance. Whether tackling everyday laundry or special care items, this dryer delivers on the promise of quality, efficiency, and convenience.
