Why my Samsung DV42H5000GW doesn’t dry clothes properly?

  If your Samsung Dryer isn't drying clothes properly, make sure the exhaust hood outside your home opens and closes freely and that the exhaust system is free of lint buildup; inspect and clean ducting annually. Use a 4” rigid metal exhaust duct and avoid overloading the dryer; one wash load should equal one dryer load. Sort heavy and lightweight items. Reposition large, bulky items like blankets or comforters for even drying. Ensure the dryer is draining properly and the load isn't too small—add a few towels if needed.

  If your Samsung Dryer isn't heating, verify the home’s circuit breaker and fuses are working correctly. Select a heat setting other than Air Fluff. For a gas dryer, check that the gas supply is on. Clean the lint filter and exhaust duct. The dryer may also be in the cool-down phase of the cycle.

How to fix a noisy Samsung DV42H5000GW?

  If your Samsung Dryer is making noise, check the load for objects like coins, loose buttons, or nails and remove them. It's normal to hear the gas valve or heating element cycle on and off, and for the dryer to hum due to airflow. Ensure the dryer is leveled properly.

  If your Samsung Dryer shuts off before the load is dry, the load might be too small. Try adding more items or a few towels and restart the cycle. Alternatively, the load could be too large; remove some items and restart the dryer.

  If your Samsung Dryer dries unevenly, it's normal for seams, pockets, and heavy areas to be not completely dry. Select the Very Dry setting. When drying one heavy item with lightweight items, sort them for best results.

  If your Samsung Dryer doesn't start, ensure the door is latched shut and the power cord is plugged into a working electrical outlet. Also, check your home's circuit breaker and fuses. If the door was opened during the cycle, press the Start/Pause button again.

  Household odors from painting, varnishing, or strong cleaners may enter your Samsung Dryer with the room air. Ventilate the room completely before using the dryer to prevent this.
