How to reduce static in my GE PFD87?
To reduce static in your GE dryer: * Use a fabric softener. Bounce® Fabric Conditioner Dryer Sheets have been approved for use in all GE Appliances dryers when used in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. * Avoid overdrying by adjusting the setting to Less Dry or Damp. * Be aware that synthetics, permanent press, and blends can cause static; try using a fabric softener.
Why does my GE PFD87 display 00 in Time Remaining while running?
If your GE dryer is running but displays '00' in Time Remaining, this could be due to: * The Wrinkle Care option being chosen: During extended tumbling with this option, the time remaining is not displayed. This lasts approximately 60 minutes. * A full lint filter: Clean the lint filter, dry a load on an automatic cycle, and verify that the light turns off. * Improper or obstructed ducting: Check the Installation Instructions to ensure correct dryer venting. Ensure ducting is clean, free of kinks, and unobstructed. Also, check if the outside wall damper operates easily. Dry a load on an automatic cycle and verify that the light turns off.
Why are collars and waistbands still wet after using my GE PFD87 Dryer?

Choose QUICK DRY or TIMED DRY to dry damp collars and waistbands. In the future, when drying a load with collars and waistbands, choose More Dry.
