Possible Causes

Solution

Dryer Results (cont.)

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

Clothes are coming out of the 

Refresh cycle with damp or wet 

spots.

Under certain environmental or installation conditions, you may 

experience underdrying. Select the Timed Dry cycle, medium 

drying temperature, for 5 to 10 minutes. 

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 drying time.” 

Lint on load

Lint screen is clogged with lint.

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.

Loads are wrinkled

The load was not removed from dryer 

at the end of the cycle.

Select Custom Refresh Cycle 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. When using the Custom 

Refresh cycle (on some models), adjust the garment number 

based on the load size. 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.

Clothes are not drying sat-

isfactorily or drying times 

are too long (cont.)

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.

The load is too large and heavy  

to dry quickly.
Fabric softener sheets are blocking 

the grille.

The air outlet grille is just inside the door, behind the lint screen. 

Check that it is not blocked by a fabric softener sheet. 

Use only one fabric softener sheet, and use it only once.

Separate the load to tumble freely.

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.

Clean lint screen before each load.

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.
