TROUBLESHOOTING
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 and heavy fabrics are loaded.
• 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.
Dryer 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 filter before every load. With the lint removed,
hold the 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.
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.
The appliance is overloaded.
• Divide extra large loads into smaller loads for better drying performance
and efficiency.
Energy Saver option is selected. (on some models)
• If using the
Normal
cycle, deselect the
Energy Saver
option that is
selected by default. This option reduces enery use by adding an air dry
section to the beginning of the cycle. It is normal to feel no heat at the
beginning of the cycle while in
Energy Saver
mode.
The 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.

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.
The appliance does not
heat.
House fuse is blown, circuit breaker has tripped, or power outage has
occurred.
