Solutions
Confirm that the exhaust duct is properly
configured and free of debris, lint, and
obstructions. Make sure that outside wall
dampers can open properly and are not
blocked_ jammed, or damaged.
Separate heavy items from lightweight items.
Larger and heavier items take longer to dry°
Light items in a load with heavy items can foam
the sensor because the light items dry faster.
Heavy fabrics take longer to dry because they
tend to retain more moisture. To help reduce
and maintain more consistent drying times for
large and heavy fabrics, separate these items
into smaller loads of a consistent size.
Use the appropriate control settings for the
type of load you are drying. Some loads
may require an adjustment of the DRY LEVEL
setting for proper drying.
Remove the lint from the filter before every
load. With the lint removed, hold the filter up
to a light to see if it is dirty or clogged. If it
looks dirty, follow the cleaning instructionson.
With some loads that produce high amounts
of (int, such as new bath rowe(s, it may be
necessary to pause the cycle and clean the
fiffer during the cycle.
Reset circuit breaker or replace fuse. Do
not increase fuse capacity. If the problem
is a circuit Overload, have it corrected by a
qualified electrician.
NOTE: Due to the design of electric dryers, it
is possiblefor a circuit problem to allow an
electric dryer to run without heat.
Divide extra large loads into smaller loads for
better drying performance and efficiency.
if you are drying a very small load, add a
few extra items to ensure proper tumbling
action. If the load isvery small and you are
using AUTO DRY cycles, the electronic confrot
cannot properly sense the dryness of the load
and may shut off too soon. Use TIMED DRY or
add some extra wet clothes to the load.
Over drying a load of laundry can lead to
wrinkled clothes.Try a shorter drying time or
LESS DRY setting and remove items while they
still retain a slight amount of moisture.
Use the WRINKLE GUARD option. This
feature will tumble the clothes briefly every
few minutes for up to ]50 minutes to help
prevent wrinkling.
To avoid shrinking your clothes,always consult
and follow fabric care instructions. Some
fabrics will naturally shrink when washed.
Other fabrics can be washed but will shrink
when dried in a dryer. Use a bw or no heat
setting.
