TROUBLESHOOTING TIPS
Troubleshooting Tips... Before you call for service
Problem Possible Cause What To Do
Dryer shakes or
makes noise
Some shaking/noise is normal.
Dryer may be sitting unevenly.
Move dryer to an even floor space, or adjust leveling legs as
necessary until even.
Clothes take
too long to dry
Improper or obstructed
ducting
Check the Installation Instructions to make sure the dryer
venting is correct.
Make sure ducting is clean, free of kinks and unobstructed.
Check to see if outside wall damper operates easily.
Improper sorting Separate heavy items from lightweight items (generally, a
well-sorted washer load is a well-sorted dryer load).
Large loads of heavy fabrics
(like beach towels)
Large, heavy fabrics contain more moisture and take longer to dry.
Separate large, heavy fabrics into smaller loads to speed drying time.
Controls improperly set Match control settings to the load you are drying.
Lint filter is full Clean lint filter before every load.
Blown fuses or tripped
circuit breaker
Replace fuses or reset circuit breakers. NOTE: Some electric
dryers use 2 fuses/breakers, make sure both are operating.
Overloading/combining loads Do not put more than one washer load in the dryer at a time.
Underloading If you are drying only one or two items, add a few items to ensure
proper tumbling.
ecoDry is enabled The ecoDry feature is designed to operate your dryer in the
most energy efficient mode, which is not always the fastest
mode. In some instances, dry times may be extended to
reduce overall energy usage for the cycle.
