If your Samsung Dryer is making unusual noises, check the load for objects like coins, loose buttons, or nails and remove them. It is normal to hear the heating element cycle on and off and for the dryer to hum due to airflow. Ensure the dryer is leveled properly according to the installation instructions.
Why does my Samsung DV431AEP Dryer shut off before load is dry?
If your Samsung Dryer is shutting off before the load is dry, the load might be too small or too large. Try adding more items or a few towels if the load is too small, or remove some items if the load is too large, then restart the cycle.
Why is my Samsung Dryer not heating up?
If your Samsung Dryer isn't heating, check the home’s circuit breaker and fuses. Clean the lint filter and exhaust duct. Also, the dryer may have moved into the cool-down phase of the cycle.
How to prevent lint on clothes in my Samsung Dryer?
To prevent lint on clothes when using your Samsung Dryer, ensure the lint filter is cleaned before every load. For loads that produce a lot of lint, clean the filter during the cycle if needed. Separate lint-producing fabrics (like fuzzy white cotton towels) from lint-trapping fabrics (like black linen pants). Divide larger loads into smaller ones and check pockets thoroughly before washing and drying.
Why is my Samsung Dryer not drying clothes?
If your Samsung Dryer isn't drying clothes properly, ensure the exhaust hood outside the home can open and close freely. Check the exhaust system for lint buildup and consider having the ducting inspected and cleaned annually. Use a 4” rigid metal exhaust duct. Avoid overloading the dryer, matching one wash load to one dryer load, and sort heavy items from lightweight ones. For large, bulky items, reposition them for even drying. Also, check that the washer is draining properly and that the load isn't too small; if it is, add a few towels.
What to do if my Samsung DV431AEP doesn’t run?
If your Samsung Dryer doesn't run, make sure the door is latched shut and the power supply cord is properly plugged into a live electrical outlet. Check the home’s circuit breaker and fuses. If the door was opened during the cycle, press the Start/Pause button again.
Why does my Samsung DV431AEP dry unevenly?
If your Samsung Dryer is drying clothes unevenly, remember that seams, pockets, and other heavy areas may not be completely dry, which is normal. Select the More Dry setting if desired. If drying a heavy item with lightweight items, sort them for best results.
Why does my Samsung Dryer have an odor?
If your Samsung Dryer has an odor, it may be due to household odors from painting, varnishing, or strong cleaners entering the dryer with the surrounding room air. Ventilate the room completely before using the dryer when these odors linger.
Why are garments still wrinkled after Wrinkle-Release in my Samsung DV431AEP?
