again if the door is
opened during a cycle.
• Clean the lint filter.
Does not heat.
• Check your home’s circuit breakers or fuses.
• Some cycles do not require heating. Check the selected
cycle again.
• For a gas dryer, make sure the gas supply is on.
• Clean the lint filter and exhaust duct.
• The dryer may have moved into the cool-down phase of
the cycle.
Does not dry.
• Check all of the above, plus...
• Make sure the exhaust hood outside your home can open
and close freely.
• Check the exhaust system for lint buildup. Ducting should
be inspected and cleaned annually.
• Use a 4” rigid metal exhaust duct.
• Do not overload. 1 wash load = 1 dryer load.
• Dry heavy items and light weight items separately.
• Large, bulky items, such as blankets or comforters, may
require repositioning to ensure even drying.
• Make sure that your washer is draining properly and
extracting adequate water from the load.
• The load may be too small to tumble properly. Add a few
towels and restart the dryer.
• The load may be too large to tumble properly. Remove
some items and restart the dryer.
• Clean the lint filter.
• Turn the Eco Dry function off. To save energy, Eco Dry uses
a fan without heating and it takes longer to dry items.
