• Do not install a clothes dryer with exible plastic venting materials. If exible metal
(foil type) duct is installed, it must be of a specic type identied by the appliance
manufacturer as suitable for use with clothes dryers. Flexible venting materials are
known to collapse, be easily crushed, and trap lint. These conditions will obstruct
clothes dryer airow and increase the risk of re.
• To reduce the risk of severe injury or death, follow all installation instructions.
• Save these instructions.
WARNING - To reduce the risk of re or explosion:
• Do not dry items that have been previously cleaned, washed, soaked, or spotted with
gasoline, dry cleaning solvents, or other ammable or explosive substances. They
emit vapors that could ignite or explode. Any material that has been in contact with a
cleaning solvent or ammable liquids or solids should not be placed in the dryer until
all traces of these ammable liquids or solids and their fumes have been removed.
There are many highly ammable items used in homes, such as acetone, denatured
alcohol, gasoline, kerosene, some liquid household cleaners, some spot removers,
turpentine, waxes, and wax removers.
• Do not dry items containing foam rubber (may be labeled latex foam) or similarly
textured rubber-like materials on a heat setting. Heated foam rubber materials can,
under certain circumstances, ignite spontaneously.
WARNING - Fire or explosion hazard:

• Gas suppliers recommend you purchase and install a UL-approved gas detector.
• Install and use in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
• Do not place items in your dryer that have been spotted or soaked with vegetable oil
or cooking oil. Even after being washed, these items may contain signicant amounts
of these oils.
• Residual oil on clothing can ignite spontaneoulsy. The potential for spontaneous
combustion increases when items containing vegetable oil or cooking oil are exposed
to heat. Heat sources such as your dryer can warm these items, allowing an oxidation
reaction in the oil to occur. Oxidation creates heat. If this heat cannot escape, the items
can become hot enough to catch re. Piling, stacking, or storing these kinds of items
may prevent heat from escaping and can create a re hazard.
• All washed and unwashed fabrics that contain vegetable oil or cooking oil can be
dangerous.
Washing these items in hot water with extra detergent will reduce, but not eliminate,
the hazard. Always use the Cool Down cycle for these items to reduce their
temperature. Never remove these items from the dryer hot or interrupt the drying
cycle until the items have run through the Cool Down cycle. Never pile or stack these
items when they are hot.

• Make sure the door is latched shut.
• Make sure the power cord is plugged into a live electrical
outlet.
• Check your home’s circuit breakers or fuses.
• Press Start/Pause (Hold to Start) again if the door was
opened during a cycle.
• Clean the lint lter.
Does not heat.
• Check your home’s circuit breakers or fuses.
• Some cycles do not require heating. Check the selected cycle
again.
• Check the lint lter and heat exchanger. Clean them if
necessary.
• The dryer may have moved into the cool-down phase of the
cycle.
Does not dry.
• Check all of the above, plus...
• Dry heavy items and light weight items separately.
• Large, bulky items, such as blankets or comforters, may
require repositioning to ensure even drying.
• Make sure that your washer is draining properly and
extracting adequate water from the load.
• The load may be too small to tumble properly. Add a few
towels and restart the dryer.
• The load may be too large to tumble properly. Remove some
items so the dryer is half full, and then restart.
• Clean the lint lter and heat exchanger.
Is noisy.
• Check the load for objects such as coins, loose buttons, nails,
etc. Remove promptly.
• Make sure the dryer is leveled properly as outlined in the
installation instructions.
• It is normal for the dryer to hum due to the high velocity
of air moving through the dryer drum, fan, or Water Drain
system.
DV5000F_LED_WEB_Heatpump_EN.indd 42DV5000F_LED_WEB_Heatpump_EN.indd 42 2025/9/23 15:19:062025/9/23 15:19:06
English 43
Problem Action
Dries unevenly.
• Seams, pockets, and other similarly heavy areas may not
be completely dry when the rest of the load has reached
the selected dryness level. This is normal. You can choose
a higher dryness level or a cycle that involves a higher
dryness level.
• If one heavy item is dried with a light weight load, such as
one towel with sheets, it is possible that the heavy item will
not be completely dry when the rest of the load has reached
the selected dryness level.
• For the best drying results, dry heavy items and light weight
items separately.
Lint on clothes.
• Make sure the lint lter is cleaned before every load. For
clothes that naturally build up lint, clean the lter during the
cycle.
• Some fabrics are lint producers (for example, a fuzzy white
cotton towel) and they must be dried separately from clothes
that are lint trappers (for example, a pair of black linen
pants).
• Divide larger loads into smaller loads for drying.
• Check pockets thoroughly before drying, then dry clothes.
• Remove lint inside the drum before drying.
Extended time.
• Sensor Dry automatically senses the moisture in the load
