USER MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
Dryer is noisy. • It is normal for your dryer to hum due to the high velocity of air
moving through the dryer drum and exhaust system.
• It is normal to hear the dryer gas valve or heating element cycle on
and off during the drying cycle.
• Check the load for objects, like coins, loose buttons, nails, or
broken zippers. Remove these items.
• Make sure that your dryer is level.
Clothes are
unevenly
dried.
• Seams, pockets, and other similarly heavy areas may not be
completely dry when the rest of the load has reached the selected
dryness level. This is normal. Select the More Dry or Very Dry
dryness level if desired.
• If you dry one heavy item with a lightweight load (such as one
towel with sheets), the heavy item may not be completely dry
when the rest of the load has reached the selected dryness level.
For best drying results, dry heavy items and lightweight items
separately.
Dryer shuts
off before the
clothes are
dried.
• The dryer load is too small. Add more items or a few towels and
restart the cycle.
• The dryer load is too large. Remove some items and restart the
cycle.
• Consider using a Manual Dry cycle.
Dryer has an
odd odor.
• Your dryer draws air from the surrounding room air. Household
odors from paint, varnish, strong cleaners, and so forth, may enter
your dryer with the surrounding room air. This is normal. When
these odors linger in the air, ventilate the room completely before
using your dryer.
Clothing is
still wrinkled
after using
the Wrinkle
Care setting.
• Small loads of one to four items work best.
• If the dryer load is too large, items cannot tumble freely. Try
loading fewer items.
• Make sure that the items in the dryer load are similar. The Wrinkle
Care setting works best when the items in the dryer load are
similar-type items.
There is lint
on the
clothing.
• Check pockets thoroughly before washing and drying clothes.
Things like paper or tissue can break up into small pieces that turn
into lint.
• Clean the lint filter before every cycle. Some loads that produce
high amounts of lint can clog the filter.
• Some fabrics are lint producers (like a fuzzy white cotton towel)
and they should be dried separately from clothes that are lint
trappers (like a pair of black linen pants).
• Divide larger loads into smaller loads for drying.
