Possible Causes
Automatic cycle ending early.
Lint screen clogged.
Dryer fabric softener not properly
used.
The load was not removed from dryer
at the end of the cycle.
Dryer tightly packed.
You have recently been painting,
staining, or varnishing in the area
where your dryer is located.
The electric dryer is being used for the
first time.
Laundry items were removed from the
dryer before the end of the cycle.
A high temperature cycle was used or
the Dry Temp control set on high.
The load may not be contacting the sensor strips. Level the dryer.
Use Timed Dry for very small loads. Change the dryness level
setting on Auto Dry 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 Auto Cycle Settings to increase
Drying Time.
Lint screen should be cleaned before each load.
Add dryer fabric softener sheets at the beginning of the cycle.
Fabric softener sheets added to a partially dried load can stain
your garments.
Drum stains are caused by dyes in clothing (usually blue jeans).
These will not transfer to other clothing.
Select Wrinkle Guard™ feature to tumble the load without heat
to avoid wrinkling.
Dry smaller loads that can tumble freely to reduce wrinkles from
forming.
If so, ventilate the area. When the odors or fumes are gone from
the area, rewash and dry the clothing.
The new electric heating element may have an odor. The odor will
be gone after the first cycle.
Allow the Cool Down cycle to finish before removing laundry from
dryer. All cycles are cooled slowly to reduce wrinkling and make it
easier to handle. Items removed before Cool Down may feel very
warm.
Select a lower temperature, and use an Auto Dry cycle. These
cycles sense the temperature or the moisture level in the load and
shut off when the load reaches the selected dryness. This reduces
overdrying.
