Problem Possible Cause What To Do
Dryer shakes
or makes noise Some shaking/noise is
normal. Dryer may be
sitting unevenly. Move dryer to an even floor space, or adjust leveling legs as
necessary until even.
Clothes take
too long to dry Improper or obstructed
ducting Check the Installation Instructions to make sure the dryer
venting is correct.
Make sure ducting is clean, free of kinks and unobstructed.
Check to see if outside wall damper operates easily.
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.
Blown fuses or tripped
circuit
breaker
Replace fuses or reset circuit breakers. NOTE: Some electric
dryers use 2 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.
Dryer doesn’t
start Dryer is unplugged Make sure the dryer plug is pushed completely into the outlet.
Fuse is blown/circuit
breaker
is tripped
Check the building’s fuse/circuit breaker box and replace fuse
or reset breaker.
NOTE: Some electric dryers use two fuses/
breakers, make sure both are operating.
Dryer doesn’t
heat Fuse is blown/circuit
breaker
is tripped; the dryer
may tumble but not heat
Check the building’s fuse/circuit breaker box and replace
both fuses or reset both breakers. Your dryer may tumble if
only one fuse is blown or one breaker tripped.
NOTE: Some
electric dryers use 2 fuses/breakers, make sure both are
operating.
Gas service is off (gas
models only) Make sure gas shutoff at dryer and main shutoff are fully open.
LP gas supply tank is
empty
or there has been a utility
interruption of natural gas
(gas models only) Refill or replace tank. Dryer should heat when utility service is
restored.
No heat temperature
selected Select another heat setting
Inconsistent
drying times Type of heat Drying time will vary according to the type of heat used. If
you recently changed from an electric to a gas (natural or LP)
dryer, or vice versa, the drying time could be different.
Type of load and drying
conditions The load size, types of fabric, wetness of clothes and the
length and condition of the exhaust system will affect drying
times.
Clothes are
wrinkled Overdrying Select a shorter drying time.
Remove items while they still hold a slight amount of moisture.
Select a less 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.
