NOTE: Due to the design of electric dryers, it is
possible for a circuit problem to allow an electric
dryer to run without heat.
Confirm that the housegas shutoff and the dryer
gas shutoff valves are both fully open. Even if gas
is not supptied to the dryer, it will run and no error
codes will display. Verify that other gas appliances
in the home are working normally.
Only use your dryer to dry clean items.Soil from dilly
clothescan transfer to the clean clothes in the same or
later loads.
Stains on dried clothes could be stains that weren't
removed during the washing process. Make sure
that clothes are being compretely cleaned or
rinsed according to the instructionsfor your washer
and detergent. Some dimcult soils may require pre-
treating prior to washing.
The drying time for a load will vary depending on
the type of heat used [electric, natural gas, or LP
gas), the size of the load, the type of fabrics, the
wetness of the clothes, and the condition of the
exhaust duct and lint filter. Even an unbalanced
load in the washer can cause poor spinning,
resulting in wetter crothes which will take longer to
dry.
