■ Is the 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 c
heck 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.
■ Are fabric softener sheets blocking the grille?
Use only one fabric softener sheet, and use it only once.
■ Is the exhaust vent the correct length?
Check that the exhaust vent is not too long or has too man
y
turns. Long venting will increase drying times. See the
Installation Instructions.
■ Is the exhaust vent diameter the correct size?
Use 4" (102 mm) diameter vent material.
■ Is the dryer located in a room with temperature below 45ºF
(7ºC)?
Proper operation of dryer cycles requires temperatures above
45ºF (7ºC).
■ Is the dryer located in a closet?
Closet doors must have ventilat
ion openings at the top and
bottom of the door. The rear of the dryer requires 5" (127 mm) of
airspace,
and the sides and front of the dryer require a minimum
of 1" (25 mm). See the Installation Instructions.
■ Has the Air Fluff modifier been selected?
Select the right temperature for the types of garments being
dried. See “Additional F
eatures.”
■ Is the load too large and heavy to dry quickly?
Separate the load to tumble freely.
■ Are clothes coming out of the Rapid Refresh Small Load cycle
with damp or wet spots?
Under certain environmental or installation conditions, you may
experience underdrying. Select the CUSTOM REFRESH cycle
(20 min. default time), which can be customized by selecting the
temper
ature by pressing TEMP LEVEL and/or cycle time by
pressing the TIME ADJUST + (plus) or – (minus).

WARNING
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install dryer.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.

The load may not be contacting the sensor strips. Level the dryer.
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
■ Is the lint screen clogged?
Clean lint screen. Check for air movement.
Stains on load or drum
■ Was dryer fabric softener 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).
T
his will not transfer to other clothing.
Loads are wrinkled
■ Was the load removed from dryer at the end of the cycle?
For Steam Dryers select Custom Refr
esh cycle to tumble the load
with water and heat to help smooth out wrinkles from a load left
in the dryer.
■ Was the dryer overloaded?
Dry smaller loads that can tumble freely
. Smaller loads yield best
results with the Rapid Refresh Small Load cycle. Results may also
vary depending on fabric type. This cycle is best for reducing
wrinkles and odors from loads consisting of wrinkle-free cotton,
cotton polyester blends, common knits, and synthetics.
■ Loads are still wrinkled following Steam cycles?
Make sure water is connected to the dry
er. Check that water inlet
hose is connected to both the faucet and dryer’s water inlet
valve. Check that the water supply is turned on. These cycles are
best for smoothing out wrinkles and reducing odors from loads
consisting of wrinkle-free cotton, cotton polyester blends,
common knits, and synthetic garments.
NOTE: Refer to garment care l
abel instructions. Dry clean only
garments are not recommended.
