•  Load is not properly sorted.

•  Large load of heavy fabrics.

•  Dryer controls are not set 

properly.

• Lint fi lter needs to be 

cleaned.

•  Exhaust ducts blocked, dirty, 

or duct run is too long.

•  House fuse is blown, circuit 

breaker has tripped, or 
power outage has occurred. 

• Dryer is overloaded. 

• Dryer is underloaded.

•  Separate heavy items from lightweight items. Larger 

and heavier items take longer to dry.

•  Heavy fabrics take longer to dry because they tend 

to retain more moisture. To help reduce and maintain 
more consistent drying times for large and heavy 
fabrics, separate these items into smaller loads of 
a consistent size.

•  Use the appropriate control settings for the type of 

load you are drying.

•  Make sure the lint fi lter is cleaned before every load. 

With some loads that produce high amounts of lint, it 
may be necessary to clean the fi lter during the cycle.

• Confi rm that the exhaust ductwork is properly 

confi gured and free of debris, lint, and obstructions. 
Make sure that outside wall dampers can open 
properly and are not blocked, jammed, or damaged. 

•  Reset circuit breaker or replace fuse. Do not 

increase fuse capacity. If the problem is a circuit 
overload, have it corrected by a qualifi ed electrician.

•  Divide larger loads into smaller loads for drying. 

•  If you are drying a very small load, add a few extra 

items to ensure proper tumbling action.

•  Clothes dried too long 

(overdried). 

•  Clothes left in dryer too long 

after cycle ends.

•  Overdrying a load of laundry can lead to wrinkled 

clothes. Try a shorter drying time, and remove items 
while they still retain a slight amount of moisture.

•  Remove items from the dryer immediately at the 

end of the cycle. Use the WRINKLE CARE option to 
continue tumbling clothes at the end of the cycle, for 
up to 3 hours.

• Garment care instructions 

are not being followed. 

•  To avoid shrinkage, please carefully follow the fabric 

care instructions for your garment, because 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 and/or the 
RACK DRY option. 

• Lint fi lter is almost clogged 

or full.

•  Pause the drying cycle and clean the lint fi lter.

•  Ductwork is slightly too long 

or has too many turns/
restrictions.

•  Partial blockage of the 

ductwork due to lint buildup.

•  Install a shorter or straighter duct run. See the 

Installation Instructions.

•  Ductwork should be checked/cleaned soon. 

Dryer can be used in this condition, but drying 
times may be longer.

•  Ductwork is too long or has 

too many turns/restrictions.

• Signifi cant blockage of the 

ductwork due to lint buildup 
or debris.

•  Install a shorter or straighter duct run. See the 

Installation Instructions.

•  Ductwork should be checked/cleaned immediately 

to remove lint build up and other blockages. Dryer 
can be used, but performance and effi ciency will be 
greatly reduced.
