Solutions
Dryer does not heat
• House fuse is blown, circuit
breaker has tripped, or
power outage has occurred.
• Gas supply or service turned
off (gas models only).

shutoff are both fully open.

Display shows error
code tE1 or tE2
• Thermistor is malfunctioning.
• Turn off the dryer and call for service.
Lint on clothes
• Lint filter not cleaned
properly.
• Laundry not sorted properly.
• Excess static in clothes.
• Dryer is overloaded.
• Tissue, paper, etc., left
in pockets.
• Make sure the lint filter is cleaned before every
load. With some loads that produce high amounts
of lint, it may be necessary to clean the filter
during the cycle.
• Some fabrics are lint producers (i.e., a fuzzy white
cotton towel) and should be dried separately from
clothes that are lint trappers (i.e., a pair of black
linen pants).
• See the
Excess static in clothes after drying
section below.
• Divide larger loads into smaller loads for drying.
• Check pockets thoroughly before washing and
drying clothes.
Excess static in
clothes after drying
• Fabric softener not used or
used incorrectly.
• Clothes dried too long
(overdried).
• Drying synthetics, permanent
press, or synthetic blends.
• Use a fabric softener to reduce static electricity.
Be sure to follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
• Overdrying a load of laundry can cause a buildup
of static electricity. Adjust settings and use a
shorter drying time, or use SENSOR DRY cycles.
• These materials can cause static buildup. Try
using a fabric softener.
Drying time is not
consistent
• Heat settings, load size, or
dampness of clothing is not
consistent.
• The drying time for a load will vary depending on the
heat setting, the type of heat used (electric, natural,
or LP gas), the size of the load, the type of fabrics,
the wetness of the clothes, and the condition of the
exhaust ducts and lint filter.
