Cycle time too short

Automatic cycle ending early.

The load may not be contacting the sensor strips. Level the 

dryer.

Use Timed Drying for very small loads. Change the Dryness 

Level setting on Automatic Dry cycles.
Increasing or decreasing the Dryness Level setting will change 

the amount of drying time in a cycle. 

Lint on load

Lint screen clogged.

Lint screen should be cleaned before each load.

Stains on load or drum

Dryer fabric softener not properly 

used.

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

Fabric softener sheets added to a partially dried load can stain 

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

These will not transfer to other clothing.

Loads are wrinkled

Load not removed from dryer at the 

end of the cycle.

Select Tumble Press

®

 feature to tumble the load without heat to 

avoid wrinkling.

Dryer tightly packed.

Dry smaller loads that can tumble freely to reduce the chance 

of wrinkles forming.

Odors

You have recently been 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.

The electric dryer is being used for 

the first time.

The new electric heating element may have an odor. The odor 

will be gone after the first cycle.

Load is too hot

Laundry items were removed from 

the dryer before the end of the 

cycle.

Allow Cool Down cycle to finish before removing laundry from 

dryer. All cycles are cooled slowly to reduced wrinkling and 

make it easier to handle. Items removed before Cool Down  

may feel very warm.

A high temperature cycle was used.

Select a lower temperature, and use an automatic drying cycle. 

These cycles sense the temperature or the moisture level in the 

load and shut off when the load reaches the selected dryness. 

This reduces overdrying.

No heat

Household fuse is blown or circuit 

breaker has tripped.

The drum may be turning, but you may not have heat. Electric 

dryers use 2 household fuses or circuit breakers. Replace both 

fuses or reset the circuit breaker. If the problem continues, call  

an electrician.

Supply line valve not open.

For gas dryers, the valve is not open on the supply line.

Incorrect power supply.

Electric dryers require 240-volt power supply.  

Check with a qualified electrician.
