Problem Possible Causes What To Do
Clothes take too
long to dry
Improper sorting • Separate heavy items from lightweight items (generally, a
well-sorted washer load is a well-sorted dryer load).
Large loads of heavy fabrics
(like beach towels)
• Large, heavy fabrics contain more moisture and take longer to dry.
Separate large, heavy fabrics into smaller loads to speed drying
time.
Controls improperly set • Match control settings to the load you are drying.
Lint filter is full • Clean lint filter before every load.
Improper or obstructed ducting • Check installation instructions for proper ducting/venting.
• Make sure ducting is clean, free of kinks and unobstructed.
• Check to see if outside wall damper operates easily.
• Check the Installation Instructions to make sure the dryer venting is
correct.
Blown fuses or tripped circuit
breaker
• Replace fuses or reset circuit breakers. Since most dryers use two
fuses/breakers, make sure both are operating.
Overloading/combining loads • Do not put more than one washer load in the dryer at a time.
Underloading • If you are drying only one or two items, add a few items to ensure
proper tumbling.
Clothes are
wrinkled
Overdrying • Select a shorter drying time.
• Remove items while they still hold a slight amount of moisture.
Select a Less Dry or Damp Dry setting.
Letting items sit in dryer after
cycle ends
• Remove items when cycle ends and fold or hang immediately.
Overloading • Separate large loads into smaller ones.
Clothes shrink Some fabrics will naturally
shrink when washed. Others
can be safely washed, but will
shrink in the dryer
• To avoid shrinkage, follow garment care labels exactly.
• Some items may be pressed back into shape after drying.
• If you are concerned about shrinkage in a particular item, do not
machine wash or tumble dry it.
