Clothes are not drying 

satisfactorily, clothes are 

balling or tangling, or 

drying times are too long 

(cont.)

The load is too large and heavy to dry 

quickly.

Separate the load to tumble freely.

The dryer is located in a room with 

temperature below 45ºF (7ºC).

Proper operation of dryer cycles requires temperatures above 

45ºF (7ºC).

The dryer is located in a closet.

Closet doors must have ventilation 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 most installations, the rear of the dryer requires 

5" (127 mm). See the Installation Instructions.

Cycle time is too short

The load may not be contacting the 

sensor strips on Sensor Cycles.

Level the dryer. See the Installation Instructions. All four dryer feet 

should be in firm contact with the floor.

Clothes are coming out of the Steam 

Refresh cycle with damp or wet spots.

If you are doing a Steam Refresh cycle of 1 or 2 items you can add 

a towel to the load to help avoid uneven spraying from the steam 

valve. Then select the appropriate time based on the load to be 

refreshed.

The Sensor Cycle is ending early.

Change the dryness level setting on Sensor 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 Sensor Cycle settings to increase or decrease drying 

time.”

Lint on load

Lint screen is clogged with lint.

Clean lint screen before each load.

Stains on load

Improper use of fabric softener.

Add dryer fabric softener sheets at the beginning of the cycle. 

Fabric softener sheets added to a partially dried load can stain your 

garments. Do not use fabric softener sheets with steam cycles.

Stains on drum

Loose dyes in clothes.

Drum stains are caused by dyes in clothing (usually blue jeans). 

These will not transfer to other clothing.

Loads are wrinkled

The load was not removed from dryer  

at the end of the cycle.

Select Steam Refresh Cycle (on some models) to tumble the load 

with water and heat. This cycle is best for smoothing out wrinkles 

and reducing odors from dry loads consisting of one to 9 dry items 

of wrinkle-free cotton, cotton-polyester blend, common knits, and 

synthetic garments.

NOTE: Refer to garment care label instructions. Dry-clean-only 

garments are not recommended.

The dryer was tightly packed.

Dry smaller loads that can tumble freely. 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.

For steam cycles, the water is not 

properly connected with the dryer.

Make sure water is connected to the dryer. 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.

Odors

Recent painting, staining, or varnishing 

in the area where your dryer is located.

Ventilate the area. When the odors or fumes are gone from the area, 

rewash and dry the clothing.

For steam cycles, the water is not 

properly connected with the dryer.

Make sure water is connected to the dryer. 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.

Odors are left in garments after 

wearing.

To remove odors left in garments after wearing, select Steam 

Refresh (on some models). This cycle is best for reducing wrinkles 

and odors from dry loads consisting of wrinkle-free cotton, cotton-

polyester blends, common knits, and synthetics.

Steam did not occur  

during Wrinkle Prevent

Wrinkle Prevent does not enable Steam 

on all cycle/option combinations.

Refer to Cycle Guide to verify which cycles and settings enable 

Steam.
