Dryer Results
Check the following:
Is the lint screen clogged with lint?
Is the exhaust vent or outside exhaust hood clogged with lint,
restricting air movement? Run the dryer for 5-10 minutes.
Hold your hand under the outside exhaust hood to check air
movement. If you do not feel air movement, clean exhaust
system of lint or replace exhaust vent with heavy metal or
flexible metal vent. See your Installation Instructions.
Is the exhaust vent crushed or kinked? Replace with heavy
metal or flexible metal vent. See your Installation Instructions.
Are fabric softener sheets blocking the grille? Use only one
fabric softener sheet, and use it only once.
Is the dryer located in a room with temperature below
45ºF (7ºC)? Proper operation of dryer cycles requires
temperatures above 45ºF (7ºC).
Was a cold rinse water used? Was the load very wet?
Expect longer drying times with items rinsed in cold water and
with items that hold moisture (cottons).
Is the load too large and heavy to dry quickly? Separate the
load to tumble freely.
Is the lint screen clogged? Clean lint screen. Check for air
movement.
Is the load properly sorted? Sort lint givers (towels, chenille)
from lint takers (corduroy, synthetics). Also sort by color.
Is the load too big or too heavy? Dry smaller loads so lint
can be carried to the lint screen.
Was the load overdried? Use correct dryer settings for load
type. Overdrying can cause lint-attracting static electricity.
See "Dryer Cycle Descriptions" (separate sheet).
Was paper or tissue left in pockets?
Is pilling being mistaken for lint? Pilling (surface fuzz) is
caused by normal wear and laundering.
