The appliance is equipped with an automatic error-monitoring system to detect and diagnose
problems at an early stage. If the appliance does not function properly or does not function at all,
check the following before you call for service:
Diagnosing Problems
Symptoms
Reason
Solution
Appliance will
not turn on.
Power cord is not properly plugged
in.
•
Make sure that the plug is securely
plugged into a grounded outlet
matching the appliance’s rating plate.
House fuse is blown, circuit breaker
has tripped, or power outage has
occurred.
•
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.
Appliance does
not heat.
House fuse is blown, circuit breaker
has tripped, or power outage has
occurred.
•
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.
Clothes take too
long to dry.
Load is not properly sorted.
•
Separate heavy items from
lightweight items. Larger and heavier
items take longer to dry. Light items
in a load with heavy items can fool
the sensor because the light items
dry faster.
Large load of heavy fabrics.
•
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.
Appliance controls are not set
properly.
•
Use the appropriate control settings
for the type of load you are drying.
Some loads may require an
adjustment of the dry level setting for
proper drying.
Lint filter needs to be cleaned.
•
Remove the lint from the lint filter
before every cycle. With the lint
removed, hold the lint filter up to a
light to see if it is dirty or clogged.
With some loads that produce high
amounts of lint, such as new bath
towels, it may be necessary to pause
the cycle and clean the filter during
the cycle.
