TROUBLESHOOTING
If you experience Possible Causes Solution
Cycle time too short Sensor cycle ending early. The load may not be contacting the sensor strips. Level the
dryer.
Use a timed dry for very small loads. Change the dryness level
setting on sensor cycles. Increasing or decreasing the dryness
level will change the amount of drying time in a cycle.
Lint on load Lint screen clogged. Lint screen should be cleaned before each load.
Stains on load or drum Dryer fabric softener not 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). These will not transfer to other clothing.
Loads are wrinkled Load not removed from dryer at the
end of the cycle.
Select Wrinkle Control cycle to tumble the load without heat to
avoid wrinkling.
Dryer tightly packed. Dry smaller loads that can tumble freely to help prevent wrinkles
from forming.
Odors You have 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.
The electric dryer is being used for
the first time.
The new electric heating element may have an odor. The odor
will be gone after the first cycle.
Load is too hot Laundry items removed from the
dryer before the end of the cycle.
Allow the dryer to finish the cool-down cycle before removing
laundry from dryer. All cycles are cooled slowly to reduce
wrinkling and make items easier to handle. Items removed
before cooldown may feel very warm.
A high temperature cycle was used
or the Temperature knob was set on
High.
Select a lower temperature, and use a sensor drying cycle.
These cycles sense the temperature or the moisture level in the
load and shut off when the load reaches the selected dryness.
This reduces overdrying.
