Dries unevenly.
• 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. You can choose
a higher dryness level or a cycle that involves a higher
dryness level.
• If one heavy item is dried with a light weight load, such as
one towel with sheets, it is possible that the heavy item will
not be completely dry when the rest of the load has reached
the selected dryness level.
• For the best drying results, dry heavy items and light weight
items separately.
Has odors.
• Household odors from paint, varnish, strong cleaners, etc.
may enter the dryer with the surrounding room air. This is
normal as the dryer draws the air from the room, heats it,
pulls it through the tumbler, and exhausts it outside.
• When these odors linger in the air, completely ventilate the
room before using the dryer.
• Use a cycle featuring the Refresh function. If odors persist,
wash and dry the item again.
Lint on clothes.
• Make sure the lint filter is cleaned before every load. For
clothes that naturally build up lint, clean the filter during the
cycle.
• Some fabrics are lint producers (for example, a fuzzy white
cotton towel) and they must be dried separately from clothes
that are lint trappers (for example, a pair of black linen
pants).
• Divide larger loads into smaller loads for drying.
• Check pockets thoroughly before drying, then dry clothes.
• Remove lint inside the drum before drying.

(WRINKLE-CARE,
WRINKLE RELEASE).
• Small loads of 1 to 4 items work best.
• Load fewer items. Load similar-type items.
• Take out the items immediately after drying is complete.
