■ Is the exhaust vent the correct length?

Check that the exhaust vent is not too long or has too many turns. Long venting will

increase drying times. See the Installation Instructions.

■ Is the exhaust vent diameter the correct size?

Use 4" (10.2 cm) diameter vent material.

■ Is the dryer located in a room with temperature below

45ºF (7ºC)?

Proper operation of dryer cycles requires temperatures above 45ºF (7ºC).

■ Is the dryer located in a closet?

Closet doors must have ventilation openings at the top and bottom of the door. Sides and

front of dryer require a minimum of 1" (2.5 cm) of airspace, and the rear of the dryer

requires 5" (12.7 cm). See the Installation Instructions.

■ Has an air dry cycle been selected?

Select the right cycle for the types of garments being dried.

■ Is the load too large and heavy to dry quickly?

Separate the load to tumble freely.

Cycle time too short

■ Is the automatic cycle ending early?

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

Change the dryness level setting on Automatic Cycles. Increasing or decreasing the

dryness level will change the amount of drying time in a cycle.

Lint on load

■ Is the lint screen clogged?

Lint screen should be cleaned before each load.

Stains on load or drum

■ Was dryer fabric softener 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). This will not transfer to

other clothing.

Loads are wrinkled

■ Was the load removed from dryer at the end of the cycle?

■ Was the 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.
