Possible Causes

Solution

TROUBLESHOOTING cont.

Cycle time too short

Sensor cycle ending early.

The load may not be contacting the sensor strips. Level the dryer.

Use Timed Dry for very small loads. Change the dryness level  
setting on Sensor Cycles. 
Increasing or decreasing the dryness level will change the amount 
of drying time in a cycle. If loads are consistently ending too early, 
see also Changing the Sensor Dry Default Settings.

Lint on load

Lint screen clogged.

Lint screen should be cleaned before each load.

Stains on load or drum

Dryer fabric softener not properly 
used.

Add dryer fabric softener sheets at the beginning of the cycle. 
Fabric softener sheets added to a partially dried load can stain 
your garments.
Drum stains are caused by dyes in clothing (usually blue jeans). 
These will not transfer to other clothing.

Loads are wrinkled

Load not removed from dryer at the 
end of the cycle.

Select Touch Up Cycle to tumble the load with water and heat. 
This cycle is best for smoothing out wrinkles and reducing odors 
from loads consisting of wrinkle-free cotton, cotton polyester 
blends, common knits and synthetic garments.

NOTE:

 Refer to garment care label instructions. Dry clean only 

garments are not recommended.

Dryer overloaded.

Dry smaller loads that can tumble freely.

Odors

Have you recently been painting, 
staining, or varnishing in the area 
where your dryer is located?

If so, ventilate the area. When the odors or fumes are gone from 
the area, rewash and dry the clothing.

Is the electric dryer being used for the 
first time?

The new electric heating element may have an odor. The odor will 
be gone after the first cycle.

Load is too hot

Were laundry items removed from 
the dryer before the end of the cycle?

Allow the Cool Down cycle to finish before removing laundry 
from dryer. All cycles are cooled slowly to reduced wrinkling and 
make it easier to handle. Items removed before Cool Down may 
feel very warm.

Was a high temperature cycle used, 
or was a separate temperature  
control set on high?

Select a lower temperature, and use a sensor drying cycle. These 
cycles sense the temperature or the moisture level in the load and 
shut off when the load reaches the selected dryness. This reduces 
overdrying.

Dryer displaying code 
message

“PF” (power failure),
Start LED flashes

Was the drying cycle interrupted by a power failure?
Press START/PAUSE to restart the dryer.

“F# E#” (F1 E1, F3 E1, etc.) variable 
service codes.

If a code beginning with an “F” appears in the display.  
Alternating between F# and E#, the dryer control has detected  
a problem that requires service. Call for service.
