electric dryers use 2 household fuses or circuit breakers. Replace
both fuses or reset the circuit breaker. If the problem continues,
call an electrician.

Dryer fabric softener not properly
used.
The load may not be contacting the sensor strips. Level the dryer.
Use Timed Drying for very small loads. Change the Dryness Level
setting on Automatic Dry cycles.
Increasing or decreasing the Dryness Level setting will change the
amount of drying time in a cycle.
Lint on load Lint screen should be cleaned before each load.
Stains on load or drum

A high temperature cycle was used. Select a lower temperature (on some models), and use an
automatic 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.
