to vibrate. Separate the load items and restart the washer/dryer.

Drying Results
Clothes are not drying
satisfactorily or drying
times are too long

Draining Residual Water.” This procedure should be performed
occasionally.
Dried loads are wrinkled

cycle.
Remove garments promptly at the end of the drying cycle,
or use the Wrinkle Shield option (see “Using the All-In-One
Washer/Dryer”).
The washer/dryer was tightly packed. Dry smaller loads that can tumble freely. Loading drum half full

may also vary depending on fabric type.
Load too hot
Load removed before cool-down
portion of cycle is complete.
Allow the drying cycle to complete the cool-down portion of the
cycle before removing the load. If you cancel the cycle before
the cool-down portion of the cycle and immediately remove the
load, it will be very hot.
