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
On some models: 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.
On some models: Select Refresh Cycle to tumble the load with
water and heat. This cycle is best for reducing wrinkles from loads
left in the dyrer too long.
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.
Clothes are not drying
satisfactorily or drying
times are too long (cont.)
On some models: For steam cycles,
the water is not properly connected
with the dryer.
On some models: 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.
