■ Has the Air Dry temperature setting been selected?
Select the right temperature for the types of garments being
drie
d. See “Additional Features.”
■ Is the load too large and heavy to dry quickly?
Separate the load to tumble freely.
■ 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 check 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.
■ Are drying times too long or are clothes too dry?
AUTO DRY default settings may have been changed. See
Ch
anging the AUTO DRY Default Settings.
■ Is the exhaust vent the correct length?
Check that the exhaust vent is not too long or has too many
turns. Long venting will increase drying times. See the
Installation Instructions. See also Changing the AUTO DRY
Default Settings, if you are unable to shorten the vent length.
■ 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
4
5ºF (7ºC).
■ Is the dryer located in a closet?
Closet doors must have ventila
tion openings at the top and
bottom of the door. The front of the dryer requires a minimum
of 1" (25 mm) of airspace, and, for mos
t installations, the rear
of the dryer requires 5" (127 mm). See the Installation
I
nstructions.
Cycle time too short
■ Is the automatic cycle ending early?
The load may not be contacting the moistur
e sensor strips.
Level the dryer.
Change the dryness level sett
ing on Automatic Cycles.
Increasing or decreasing the dryness level will change the
amount of drying time in a cycle. If loads are consistently
ending too early, see also Changing the AUTO DRY Default
Settings.
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 begi
nning 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
jean
s). These will not transfer to other clothing.
Loads are wrinkled
■ Was the load removed from dryer at the end of the cycle?
Remove garments promptly to pr
event wrinkling.
■ Was the dryer overloaded?
Dry smaller loads that can tumble freely.
Odors
■ Have you recently been painting, staining, or varnishing in
the area where your dryer is located?
If so, ventilate the area. When the odors or fumes are gone
fr
om the area, rewash and dry the clothing.
Changing the AUTO DRY Default Settings
IMPORTANT: Your dryness level settings can be adjusted to
adapt to different installations, environmental conditions or
personal preference. This change is retained and will affect all of
your AUTO DRY cycles, not just the current cycle/load.
If all your loads on all AUTO DRY cycles a
re consistently not as
dry as you would like, you may change the default settings to
increase the default dryness level. This change will affect all of
your AUTO DRY cycles.
