Problem Possible Cause Solutions
Greasy or dirty spots on
clothes
Fabric softener used
incorrectly.
• Conrm and follow the instructions provided with
your fabric softener.
Clean and dirty clothes are
being dried together.
• Use your dryer to dry only clean items. Soil from
dirty clothes can transfer to the clean clothes in
the same or later loads.
Clothes were not properly
cleaned or rinsed before being
placed in the dryer.
• Stains on dried clothes could be stains that were
not removed during the washing process. Make
sure that clothes are being completely cleaned
or rinsed according to the instructions for your
washer and detergent. Some difcult soils may
require pre-treating prior to washing.
Clothes are wrinkled
Clothes dried too long (over
dried).
• Over drying a load of laundry can lead to wrinkled
clothes. Try a shorter drying time or LESS DRY
setting and remove items while they still retain a
slight amount of moisture.
Clothes left in dryer too long
after cycle ends.
• Use the WRINKLE CARE option. This feature will
tumble the clothes briey every few minutes for
up to 3 hours to help prevent wrinkling.
Clothes are shrinking
Garment care instructions are
not being followed.
• To avoid shrinking your clothes, always consult
and follow fabric care instructions. Some fabrics
will naturally shrink when washed. Other fabrics
can be washed but will shrink when dried in a
dryer. Use a low or no heat setting.
Lint on clothes
Lint lter not cleaned properly.
• Remove the lint from the lter before every
load. With the lint removed, hold the lter up to
a light to see if it is dirty or clogged. If it looks
dirty, follow the cleaning instructions. With some
loads that produce high amounts of lint, it may be
necessary to clean the lter during the cycle.
Laundry not sorted properly.
• Some fabrics are lint producers (i.e., a fuzzy
white cotton towel) and should be dried
separately from clothes that are lint trappers (i.e.,
a pair of black linen pants).
Excess static in clothes.
• Use a fabric softener to reduce static electricity.
Be sure to follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
Overdrying a load of laundry can cause a buildup
of static electricity. Adjust settings and use a
shorter drying time, or use Sensor Dry cycles.
Dryer is overloaded.
• Divide extra large loads into smaller loads for
drying.
Tissue, paper, etc., left in
pockets.
• Check pockets thoroughly before washing and
drying clothes.
