CHECK YOUR VENT SYSTEM FOR GOOD AIRFLOW

Good Airflow

Along with heat, dryers require good airflow to efficiently dry laundry. Proper venting will reduce your drying times and improve your energy savings. See Installation Instructions.

The venting system attached to the dryer plays a big role in good airflow.

Service calls caused by improper venting are not covered by the warranty and will be paid by the customer, regardless of who installed the dryer.

Maintain good airflow by:

Cleaning your lint screen before each load.
Replace plastic or foil vent material with 4" (102 mm) diameter heavy, rigid vent material.

Use the shortest length of vent possible.
Use no more than four 90° elbows in a vent system; each bend and curve reduces airflow.

Remove lint and debris from the exhaust hood.
Remove lint from the entire length of the vent system at least every two years. When cleaning is complete, be sure to follow the Installation Instructions supplied with your dryer for final product check.
Clear away items from the front the dryer.

DRYER CARE

Cleaning the dryer location

Keep dryer area clear and free from items that would block the airflow for proper dryer operation. This includes clearing piles of laundry in front of the dryer.

Cleaning the dryer interior

To clean dryer drum:

Apply a liquid, nonflammable household cleaner to the stained area of the drum and rub with a soft cloth until stain is removed.
Wipe drum thoroughly with a damp cloth.
Tumble a load of clean cloths or towels to dry the drum.

NOTE: Garments that contain loose dyes, such as denim blue jeans or brightly colored cotton items, may discolor the dryer interior. These stains are not harmful to your dryer and will not stain future loads of clothes. Dry these items inside out to avoid drum staining

Removing accumulated lint

From inside the dryer cabinet

Lint should be removed every two years, or more often, depending on dryer usage. Cleaning should be done by a qualified servicer.

From the exhaust vent

Lint should be removed every two years, or more often, depending on dryer usage.

Cleaning the lint screen

Every load cleaning

The lint screen is located in the door opening of the dryer. A screen blocked by lint can increase drying time.

To clean:

1. Pull the lint screen straight up. Roll lint off the screen with your fingers. Do not rinse or wash screen to remove lint. Wet lint is hard to remove.

2. Push the lint screen firmly back into place.

IMPORTANT:

Do not run the dryer with the lint screen loose, damaged, blocked, or missing. Doing so can cause overheating and damage to both the dryer and fabrics.
If lint falls off the screen into the dryer during removal, check the exhaust hood and remove the lint. See the “Check Your Vent System for Good Airflow” section.

As-needed cleaning

Laundry detergent and fabric softener residue can build up on the lint screen. This buildup can cause longer drying times for your clothes or cause the dryer to stop before your load is completely dry. The screen is probably clogged if lint falls off while the screen is in the dryer.

Clean the lint screen with a nylon brush every six months, or more frequently, if it becomes clogged due to a residue buildup.

To wash:

1. Roll lint off the screen with your fingers.

2. Wet both sides of lint screen with hot water.

3. Wet a nylon brush with hot water and liquid detergent. Scrub lint screen with the brush to remove residue buildup

4. Rinse screen with hot water.

5. Thoroughly dry lint screen with a clean towel. Reinstall screen in dryer.

4. Plug in dryer or reconnect power.

TROUBLESHOOTING

If you experience	Possible Causes	Solution
Clothes are not drying satisfactorily, drying times are too long, or load is too hot	Lint screen clogged with lint.	Lint screen should be cleaned before each load.
	Load too large and heavy to dry quickly.	Separate the load so it tumbles freely.
	Exhaust vent or outside exhaust hood clogged with lint, restricting air movement.	Run the dryer for 5-10 minutes. Hold your hand under the outside exhaust hood to check air movement. if you do not feel air movement, clean exhaust system of lint or replace exhaust vent with heavy metal or flexible metal vent. See the installation instructions.
	Fabric softener sheets blocking the grille.	Use only one fabric softener sheet, and use it only once.
	Exhaust vent not 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.
	Exhaust vent diameter not the correct size.	Use 4" (102 mm) diameter vent material.
	Dryer located in a room with temperature below 45°F (70C).	Proper operation of dryer cycles requires temperatures above 450F (70C).
	Dryer located in a closet.	Closet doors must have ventilation openings at the top and bottom of the door. The front of the dryer requires a minimum of 1" (25 mm) of airspace, and, for most installations, the rear of the dryer requires 5" (127 mm). See the installation instructions.
Dryer will not run	Door not closed completely.	Make sure the dryer door is closed completely.
	Start button not pressed firmly or held long enough.	Press the START button until you hear the dryer drum moving.
	Household fuse is blown or circuit breaker has tripped.	Electric dryers use two household fuses or circuit breakers. The drum may be turning, but you may not have heat. Replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker. if the problem continues, call a qualified electrician.
	incorrect power supply.	Electric dryers require 240-volt power supply. Check with a qualified electrician.
	Wrong type of fuse.	Use a time-delay fuse.
Unusual sounds	Dryer had a period of non-use.	if the dryer hasn't been used for awhile, there may be a thumping sound during the first few minutes of operation.
	A coin, button, or paper clip is caught between the drum and front or rear of the dryer.	Check the front and rear edges of the drum for small objects. Clean out pockets before laundering garments.
	it is a gas dryer.	The gas valve clicking is a normal operating sound.
	The four legs are not installed, and the dryer is not level front to back and side to side.	The dryer may vibrate if not properly installed. See the installation instructions.
	Clothing knotted or balled up.	When balled up, the load will bounce, causing the dryer to vibrate. Separate the load items and restart the dryer.
No heat	Household fuse is blown or circuit breaker has tripped.	The drum may be turning, but you may not have heat. Electric dryers use two household fuses or circuit breakers. Replace both fuses or reset the circuit breaker. if the problem continues, call a qualified electrician.
	Supply line valve not open.	For gas dryers, ensure the valve is open on the supply line.
	Incorrect power supply.	Electric dryers require 240-volt power supply. Check with a qualified electrician.

If you experience	Possible Causes	Solution
Cycle time too short	Sensor cycle ending early.	The load may not be contacting the sensor strips. Level the dryer. Use a 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.
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 Wrinkle Control cycle to tumble the load without heat to avoid wrinkling.
Loads are wrinkled	Dryer tightly packed.	Dry smaller loads that can tumble freely to help prevent wrinkles from forming.
Odors	You have 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.
Odors	The electric dryer is 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	Laundry items removed from the dryer before the end of the cycle.	Allow the dryer to finish the cool-down cycle before removing laundry from dryer. All cycles are cooled slowly to reduce wrinkling and make items easier to handle. items removed before cooldown may feel very warm.
Load is too hot	A high temperature cycle was used or the Temperature knob was 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.
