USER MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
Troubleshooting
CAUTION:
Do not try to repair your dryer yourself. Doing so invalidates the
warranty.
PROBLEM
SOLUTION
Dryer does
not start.
• Make sure that the Child Lock is not on.
• Make sure the dryer door is closed completely.
• If you opened the door during the drying cycle, press the
/START PAUSE
button again.
• Make sure that the power cord is plugged into a working electrical
outlet.
• Check the circuit breaker and fuses for your dryer’s electrical
connection.
Dryer does
not heat or
does not dry.
• Your dryer may have moved into the cool-down process of the
cycle. This is normal.
• Select a cycle other than
Air Fluff
and a temperature setting that is
not “no heat.”
• Do not overload your dryer. Depending on the size of your washer,
one wash load should equal one dry load.
• Dry heavy items and lightweight items separately.
• If you are drying large, bulky items, like blankets or comforters, try
repositioning the load to ensure even drying. This may need to be
done a few times througout the cycle.
• The load may be too small to tumble correctly. Add a few towels or
use the Time dry cycles.
• Clean the lint filter and exhaust duct.
• Check the circuit breaker and fuses for your dryer’s electrical
connection.
• Make sure that the outside exhaust hood opens and closes freely.
• Check the exhaust system for lint buildup. Ducting should be
inspected and cleaned annually.
• Make sure that your exhaust duct is a 4 in. (10.2 cm) rigid or
semi-rigid metal duct.
Dryer is noisy.
• It is normal for your dryer to hum due to the high velocity of air
moving through the dryer drum and exhaust system.
• Check the load for objects, like coins, loose buttons, nails, or
broken zippers. Remove these items.
• Make sure that your dryer is level.
Clothes are
unevenly
dried.
• Seams, pockets, and other similarly heavy areas may not be
completely dry when the rest of the load has reached the selected
dryness level. This is normal. Select the
More Dry
or
Very Dry
dryness level if desired.
• If you dry one heavy item with a lightweight load (such as one
towel with sheets), the heavy item may not be completely dry
when the rest of the load has reached the selected dryness level.
For best drying results, dry heavy items and lightweight items
separately.
