Possible Causes
• The drying time for a load will vary depending on the heat setting,
the type of heat used (electric, natural gas, or LP gas), the size of
the load, the type of fabrics, the wetness of the clothes, and the
condition of the exhaust ducts and lint filter.
• Separate heavy items from lightweight items. Larger and heavier
items take longer to dry.
• Heavy fabrics take longer to dry because they tend to retain more
moisture. To help reduce and maintain more consistent drying times
for large and heavy fabrics, separate these items into smaller loads of
a consistent size.
• Use the appropriate control settings for the type of load you are
drying.
• Make sure the lint filter is cleaned before every load. With some loads
that produce high amounts of lint, it may be necessary to clean the
filter during the cycle.
• Confirm that the exhaust ductwork is properly configured and free
of debris, lint, and obstructions. Make sure that outside wall dampers
can open properly and are not blocked, jammed, or damaged.
• Reset circuit breaker or replace fuse. Do not increase fuse capacity.
If the problem is a circuit overload, have it corrected by a qualified
electrician.
• Divide larger loads into smaller loads for drying.
• If you are drying a very small load, add a few extra items to ensure
proper tumbling action.
• Overdrying a load of laundry can lead to wrinkled clothes. Try a
shorter drying time, and remove items while they still retain a slight
amount of moisture.
• Remove items from the dryer immediately at the end of the cycle.
Use the WRINKLE CARE option to continue tumbling clothes at the
end of the cycle, for up to 3 hours.
• To avoid shrinkage, please carefully follow the fabric care instructions
for your garment, because some fabrics will naturally shrink when
washed. Other fabrics can be washed but will shrink when dried in a
dryer. Use a low or no heat setting.
• Pause the drying cycle and clean the lint filter.
• Install a shorter or straighter duct run. See the Installation
Instructions.
• Ductwork should be checked/cleaned soon.
Dryer can be used in this condition, but drying times may be longer.
• If exhaust restrictions are sensed by the FLOW SENSE
indicator will remain on for two hours after the end of the cycle.
Opening the door or pressing the POWER button will turn off the
display.
• Do not use the dryer until the exhaust system has been cleaned
and/or repaired. Using the dryer with a severely restricted exhaust
is dangerous and could result in a fire or other property damage.
• Check the outside dryer vent while the dryer is operating to make
sure there is strong airflow.
• If the exhaust system is extremely long, have it repaired or rerouted.
• Keep the area around the dryer clean and free of clutter.
• Check vent hood for damage or lint clogging.
• Make sure the area around the vent hood is clear.
