Possible Causes
Solution
TROUBLESHOOTING cont.
Cycle time too short
Sensor Dry cycle ending early.
The load may not be contacting the sensor strips. Level
the dryer.
Use Timed Dry for very small loads. Change the Dry Level
setting on SENSOR DRY cycles.
Increasing or decreasing the Dry Level setting 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.
Use a cycle with Wrinkle Control to tumble the load without
heat to avoid wrinkling.
Dryer tightly packed.
Dry smaller loads that can tumble freely and reduce formation
of wrinkles.
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 were removed
from the dryer before the end
of the cycle.
Allow Cool Down cycle to finish before removing laundry from
dryer. All cycles are cooled slowly to reduce wrinkling and make
it easier to handle. Items removed before Cool Down may feel
very warm.
A high temperature cycle was
used or Temperature control was
set to high.
Select a lower temperature, and use an 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.
